Don’t just be a boss, leave a legacy

When it comes to being your own boss, you want to know not just how much money you made or how big of a footprint you have, you want to know what kind of legacy you’ve left. That’s what makes franchising so great.

Franchising provides you with a way to become your own boss while still being a part of a team. It provides you with the framework you need to achieve financial independence. You can provide for the community and still be a part of it; give back to it and play a role in its development.

You want to be remembered as someone who made a contribution. Sure, money and status are great, but in the end, what really matters is how you made people feel; what kind of impact you had on their life.

As a franchise operator, you get to take pride in knowing that you are not only doing good for yourself and for your family, you’re playing an integral role in the life of your city or region.

And the more successful you are at franchising, the more you will be sought after to share your experience and encourage other entrepreneurs. As you learn from your successes and failures, so too can you help others on their road to franchise success.

In the end, being your own boss is as much about controlling your own destiny as it is about influencing others’. Challenge yourself to something greater than yourself by considering a franchise opportunity and make the decision knowing you’ve got your legacy in mind.
