Bally Total Fitness Membership Fees
Bankruptcy means bad news for all business owners, but entails a particular frustration to the independent operators who may have been operating tight financial ship, only to have their parents as they arise. Only in the last twelve months, several groups of franchisees have felt the sting, including Bally Total Fitness, restaurants, Bennigan's and Mrs. Fields cookie store.
Economic downturns historically have helped companies the franchise of its stores, according to Emily Maltby, writing for CNNMoney.com, as unemployed workers invest savings and layoffs in new companies, ie their stores. In today's market, however, the credit crunch is maintained by employers.
"The number one driver of sales franchisor is unemployment, because more people are turning to franchising to do more with your life, "says Mark Siebert, CEO of consulting firm iFranchise Group franchises. "But given the credit situation, there is an inability to finance the franchise, especially the high end."
Business owners who work in a franchise agreement to pay royalties to the parent company for using its trademark in exchange for marketing support, supply chain, operational procedures, and other infrastructure. Support systems may collapse if the franchiser declares bankruptcy. If franchise royalties fall, Franchisors may face difficulties paying their operating costs, a problem made worse when they have trouble generating new franchise locations.
For franchisees, the bankrupt parent does not necessarily mean the end of the line. Companies as diverse as Denny's, Boston Market, Days Inn and 7-Eleven every filed for Chapter 11, and all are still viable.
"The bankruptcy of the franchise is not necessarily bad for the franchise system or of franchises," said Alisa Harrison, spokeswoman for the International Franchise Association. "There have been cases where the bankruptcy and restructuring in fact result in a stronger network operators, with a stronger financial management in business headquarters and the strongest brand position. "Before that, however, must do so through of bankruptcy.
In the best case, franchisees continue with business as usual, with some adjustments to help drive revenue or reduce the franchisor overheads. In the worst cases, the franchisor can selectively delete some stores to try to increase net profits. Franchisees often have little involvement in this process.
In the case of restaurants, Bennigan's, which filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in July 2008, franchise operators, while the company survived owned shops closed.
"One problem for Bennigan's was that the company had too many shops owned. When the economy changed, the company owned stores were no longer profitable and were losing money more rapidly that dealers were paying royalties, "said Siebert." But even if they are not profitable, it is difficult to actually lose money in a franchise .
When changes in bankruptcy franchised small business owners, they need to put the word, which are open for business, even as its parent company sends press releases downplaying the seriousness of the situation, which of course makes things worse. Enduring problems supply can sometimes mean cutting out the middleman and work directly with vendors, one of many new experiences that await the owners move on their own. If you are able to negotiate the dangers, some owners find themselves enjoying his new independence.
