If you’re  considering starting a Franchise, chances are you’re wondering how to transition from one career into the other. Making a big career change is always stressful, but we have a few tips to make things as stress-free as possible.

Review Your Financial Options

Before leaving your Current Job, be sure to carefully assess your finances. When you open a Great American Cookies location, you’ll need to make an up-front investment in order to get your franchise going strong. We ask that our franchisees have a certain amount of liquid capital available to ensure that they’re able to run their new business as comfortably as possible during the early months while still attracting new customers. Review our investment requirements and assess your ability to meet them. Also don’t hesitate to reach out to us with questions– we are always here to help.
