How Much Working Capital Do You Need To Purchase A Franchise?
A lot of people will try to trim on what is required for working capital to purchase a franchise.
Working capital is an essential component of every business.
As you talk to franchisees, the people that have already invested in the franchise business you are exploring, it’s important to ask them how much working capital they planned for when initially purchasing their franchise business.

Here are some of the questions you need to validate:

- What do you need working capital for? (employees, inventory, lease, personal living expense, etc)
Acquiring a Franchise Business is not easy
One of the leading reasons someone does not do well in business ownership is insufficient capital. It is important to talk with different franchise partners to understand what they required for working capital at the beginning of their business.
And, what they would have done differently knowing what they know now to be true.
You need to ensure you have enough working capital to get by (personally) in order to set the business up for success.
