On the surface, the current moment doesn’t seem like the best time to start any business - the economy is shaky (at best), the stock market is even more volatile than usual, and people just aren’t spending money like they usually do. However, it is important to remember that times change and that investing in a franchise business is a long term endeavor.
As a potential franchise owner, you need to determine your long term goals. Do you want the increased freedom and autonomy that comes with having your business? Opening a franchise can let you combine that freedom with the stability of being an established brand - it is really the best of both worlds. Even in today’s tough economic climate, businesses are still being opened and people do still spend (and when it comes to Floorguard, they still need garage flooring and garage storage systems, after all).
Furthermore, there is really never a 100% ideal time to launch a new business - if you wait for the best possible moment, it might never happen. So despite the potential difficulties, today could be the day to take advantage of the many franchise opportunities that are available to you - the U.S. economy might be in a recession, but the big franchise companies are certainly not going anywhere.
