Franchise Business Review is a national market research firm focused on franchisee satisfaction and performance. Its products include franchisee satisfaction reports, custom research, industry sector studies, and other services aimed at driving franchise performance.
To compile the data for its Top 100 for Veterans report, Franchise Business Review looked specifically at responses from 2,892 veterans, representing nearly 300 leading franchise brands.
Veteran franchisees answered 33 benchmark questions ranking their franchise system in the areas of financial opportunity, training and support, leadership, operations and product development, core values (e.g., honesty and integrity of franchisor), general satisfaction, and the franchisee community. An additional 16 questions asked about market area, demographics, business lifestyle, overall enjoyment running the franchise, and role in the franchisee community. From this data, Franchise Business Review identified its list of top franchises with above average satisfaction among veterans.
According to Franchise Business Review, one of the best ways to know if a franchise opportunity is as good as it appears is to look at its third-party franchisee satisfaction data. Franchise systems that don't provide third-party data may have deeper issues than just not being transparent. Those that do offer a wealth of information on the system's leadership, culture, training and support, financial outlook, and franchisee community.
The publication noted that franchisee satisfaction data is even more important to prospective franchisees on active military duty. If a veteran is located abroad, it may not be easy to conduct the necessary due diligence-calling current franchisees, visiting local stores, and meeting with the corporate office-from afar. This report can at least be a starting point for veterans' conversations.
According to Franchise Business Review, 82 percent of all veterans said they enjoy being a part of their franchise organizations, and 80 percent say they would recommend their franchise to others. Among the top 100 brands for veterans, however, 87 percent enjoy being a part of the organization, and 88 percent would recommend it to others. 84% of franchisees at the top 100 companies said "they would do it again today" related to investing in their franchise, compared to 74 percent among veterans at all franchise companies.
