I know this is a long shot but,

I am looking at doing my own thing work wise, and so have been looking at different opportunities that are available.

As usual when looking into one aspect of something I have been diverted at a tangent to my original idea and now find myself looking at the possibility of starting up a franchised business.

Have any of you guys had any experience in the franchising world. If you have I would be grateful, if you could give me some idea's on what I should look/out for in a franchise package?

Thanks

Ian
