What Is a Franchisee?

If you’re new to the world of franchising lingo, you might not know the key players. The two main parties are franchisors and franchisees. Learn who a franchisee is and what their role entails.

What Is a Franchisee?

1. Represent the brand. You, your employees, and your store location are all responsible for representing the larger brand. The way a customer feels about a location 500 miles away impacts what they think about your location, and vice-versa. It is expected that you will act in a way that accurately depicts the company as a whole.
2. Operate using the franchisor’s rules and regulations. As part of a franchise, you have an obligation to act according to your franchise agreement. This might impact the way you hire employees, offer services, and the hours you are expected to stay open.
3. Become profitable. Of course, the franchisor expects the franchisee to run the business with the tools given and earn money. How the company benefits from your individual success depends on your franchise agreement.
4. Act as a leader of your location. As a business owner, it’s your job to be a good leader for your employees. You’ll be required to make the sometimes tough decisions that lead your location to success.
