Franchise vs. Independent Cost Worksheet

Thinking about a franchise? Put its costs next to the cost of starting the same business yourself, and see the difference in black and white.

What's in it

  • A franchise column for the costs in its disclosure document (FDD Item 7)
  • An independent column for what you'd spend starting on your own
  • Ongoing costs side by side: royalties, marketing fund, and other fees
  • Space for your own quotes, so the comparison fits your market
