Military Transition Specialist

For many veterans, the prospect of owning their own business is appealing, but where does one start?

Franchising can be an excellent option for veterans to pursue entrepreneurship, due to the established brand name, training, and ongoing support franchisors provide.

Advantages of Owning a Franchise as a Veteran

Each year, around 200,000 service members transition out of the military and enter civilian life.

Franchising offers several benefits that make it an attractive option for veterans seeking to transition to business ownership.

Franchise Benefits

The structured franchising model provides a proven system to follow, which appeals to those from military backgrounds who are accustomed to established protocols and procedures.

The training and ongoing support supplied by franchisors can help veterans overcome hurdles they may face launching and operating their first civilian business.

Since veterans often have access to a wide variety of financing options, they may have an easier time securing funding for the initial franchise purchase compared to traditional entrepreneurs.

Veteran Skills That Fit the Franchise Model

Beyond the advantages of the franchising structure itself, veterans possess many transferable skills that make them ideally suited for franchise ownership.

Veterans know how to lead teams, manage operations efficiently, problem solve, and perform well under pressure – all strengths vital to franchise success.

Qualities like determination, resilience, and time management are ingrained through military service.

Veterans understand the importance of systems and following processes. Their ability to take direction and execute on established plans enables them to thrive within the franchise model.

Many have received technical training on complex equipment and systems while in the military, preparing them for technical aspects of running a business.

In short, the combination of the franchising framework and veterans’ transferable skills makes franchising a win-win opportunity for veterans seeking to start their own business.
