This panel will discuss how to choose candidates that resemble the most
successful existing franchisees. It's important to look at franchisees
financial situation, business experience and perform background checks, but
assessing personality type, behavior, skills, and management style are often
overlooked. Quite often, it is the individual behavior of a franchisee that
indicates the likelihood of success of failure.
