How to Download Free FDDs - And Why You Maybe Shouldn't!

OUR SERVICES: https://franinspect.com/services/ TESTIMONIALS: https://franinspect.com/testimonials/ FREE FDD LINK (PASSWORD IN VIDEO) https://franinspect.com/FDD Franchise Disclosure Documents (FDDs) provide detailed information on franchise companies including financial performance, closed locations, bankruptcies, lawsuits and much more. Franchises try to control the process by providing the FDD only to candidates who have completed an application and interview. The challenge for buyers is that Franchise Disclosure documents contain extremely valuable data that helps not only with deciding which franchise to ultimately buy, but also identifying which franchises to spend time researching. For example, suppose the FDD indicates that the franchise closed 80 locations last year and has several lawsuits pending against its franchisees. In that case, that might be an opportunity you would want to avoid. But when you must engage the franchise first, and after the salesperson's reassurances, you decide to continue. The franchise companies want to control both the information and the process. In these cases, the buyer never learns of the hundreds of other franchises that have not closed locations and demonstrate higher profitability and better alignment with their business goals. What the franchise companies don't want you to know is that anyone can download FDDs for free on several government websites, which we'll show you in a moment. However, we don't recommend franchise buyers use this option, as there's another completely free alternative that makes more sense. Here is why FDD's on their own are not much help. #1 - You would have to download hundreds of FDDs, collate and analyze the data, including store closures, average revenues, lawsuits, and more, to find the best-performing franchises. And #2, most buyers don't have sufficient understanding of the FDD to know what to look for. For example, what are liquidated damages, and how do they affect you? What is a non-disparagement clause, and how will it impact the information you get from existing franchise owners? What are your state laws for community property and equitable distribution, and can the franchise company require your spouse to guarantee any default? Not understanding any one of these clauses can cause unnecessary financial grief. But there is good news, and something else franchise companies don't want you to know. Franchise brokers and consultants are available to you, the buyer, free of charge. Your broker not only provides you with FDDs but also has refined the data of hundreds of franchise data into a short list of top-performing brands. Working with a broker consultant is similar to working with your real estate agent. A broker can present you with multiple options, help you understand the FDD, and align the best fully vetted franchises with your skills, goals, and local market demand. They can also help you obtain access to any FDD before engaging with the franchise companies, so you can choose which brands are worth your valuable time to research. At Franchise Inspectors, we tell it like it is. We won't sugarcoat the data, and we'll let you know of any potential issues we have identified. Because we have access to hundreds of franchise opportunities, our goal is in alignment with your own, to find the best franchise for your situation. Going direct to the franchise, they will often tell you only the positives of their brand, and most certainly won't advise you of other opportunities that might be a better fit. Over the past decade, we have helped hundreds of franchisees make better buying decisions.
