Congratulations on deciding to go into business for yourself: opening a signage franchise is a great way to become your own boss. Before choosing the right franchise, there are many things to consider, and asking the right questions is a smart place to start.

When you franchise with Signarama, you join one of the world’s largest signage franchises. With over 30 years of experience, we’ve learned the ins and outs of the industry, and we put that expertise to use with our business model.

Why Franchise?

Opening a signage franchise can help you jump into a profitable industry with continually growing demand. While it may be tempting to go it alone, consider the benefits of franchising with a well-known brand.

Starting a business from scratch is no small feat and requires time, money, and a lot of energy. However, when you work with a franchisor like Signarama, you’re set up for success with a well-known brand right off the bat.

  • Franchises have an experienced network. Entering into business together means you’ll benefit from our decades of experience, and we’ll be able to help every step of the way.

More Questions to Ask: Let Your Franchisor Provide the Answers

Before signing a contract for your new business, you should have a clear understanding of the business opportunity you are about to dive into. Below are some key questions to pose to your franchisor:

  1. Can you provide your Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD)? This document will give you a clearer picture of the company and its financials.
  2. How do you provide assistance to franchise owners? It’s a good idea to see if the company helps with site selection, real estate assistance, and lease negotiations.
  3. What do your training programs look like? You’ll want to know how your franchisor trains franchisees and if additional training is required.
  4. Can you provide financial assistance? Most franchisors rely on third-party financing.
  5. Is there a method to protect franchisees from poorly performing franchises? Your franchisor should have systems in place to protect franchisees.
  6. Are there any disputes (trademark or otherwise) or competition I should be aware of? There can be ongoing disputes and competition from the franchisor.
