- May I speak with your franchisees, and can I choose who?
- What does your Head Office support team consist of, can I meet them before I start my business?
- How many franchisee failures have there been since you started?
- How do you choose your franchisees? Do you turn people away?
On Costs

- How much working capital will I need?
- May I see financial projections and are these based on actual performance in the network?
- Did you run a pilot or company owned franchise before you launched? If not, why not?
