Choosing a franchise often requires investigation of legal and financial issues, according to Foster. Covering such issues, he explores buying a franchise, especially the "bonds between franchisor and franchisee." Foster presents case studies, statistical information, and success factors. Topics include the franchise contract, state and federal regulations, financing, and recruitment of franchisees. Appendixes consist of franchise opportunities, a sample agreement, a sample offering circular, and suggested reading. This informative publication is recommended for business collections.
