Veterans of the military are more interested in business ownership now than ever before.
According to U.S. Veterans Magazine, approximately 25% of veterans are interested in owning their own business, and one of every seven franchises is owned by a military veteran.
It seems the very nature of serving in the military oftentimes enhances or even creates personality traits that also lend themselves to being a successful franchise owner.
- Willing to learn and take on new challenges
- Proven leadership allows veterans to handle the daily operations of a franchise with great success
- Military service requires a nearly unmatched level of commitment that translates to a drive to succeed as a franchise owner
- Strong communication skills in dealing with a wide variety of individuals
- Ability to cope with and overcome stress
Because military veterans tend to be drawn to—and be successful—at franchise ownership, it is no surprise that many franchises offer incentives and discounts to veterans to help them become a franchise owner. But beyond initial incentives, how do you go about choosing a franchise opportunity that is truly military-friendly?
Fresh Coat was designed to be a franchise accessible to anyone with the desire to succeed.
