You want to be your own boss and set your own schedule. Maybe you’re fizzing with ideas for a business. But navigating the many issues around a startup—finances, legal questions, marketing, staffing—can be daunting.

Why not buy a franchise from an established company, instead of launching a startup?

Here are 10 reasons why the franchise advantage could be better than going into business on your own.

Bath Tune-Up – Four Reasons on Why to Get in on the Thriving Renovation Industry

In 2021 and beyond, the home improvement industry is benefiting both from pandemic-driven changes and from demographic changes.

How is the home renovation industry thriving?

This is a good time to get into this business because the forecasts are for continued growth.

Here are four key reasons the field is doing so well:

The construction industry has slowed down, and renovations on existing homes have increased.

Shortages of construction materials plus pandemic-based uncertainties for many families have meant a slowdown in new home construction. A whopping 78 percent of construction firms reported delays or disruptions because of the pandemic, according to Entrepreneur.

That slowdown combined with the uncertainties of the pandemic means homeowners are often staying put and renovating their current homes rather than moving into new ones.

Homeowners who do move are more often buying previously built houses that might need…

Bath Tune-Up – Bathroom Remodeling Industry Continues to See Increase

Home bathroom remodeling is a booming industry in 2021 and promises to keep growing, making bathroom remodeling businesses a solid bet for investment.

Homeowners focused on hands-on, do-it-yourself projects during 2020 as houses became offices, schools and restaurants.

But 2021 is shaping up to be the year of the contractor: homeowners are moving away from smaller DIY projects and toward mid- and high-end remodeling projects requiring professional remodelers, according to the National Kitchen and Bath Association’s (NKBA) 2021 Market Outlook Report.

Revenues for bath and kitchen remodeling were an estimated $136 billion in 2020. Revenues should soar to $158.6 billion in 2021.
