Should you open this business?
Evaluate demand, location, competition, and cash flow before opening.
Buy an Existing Business
Should you take over this store?
Review sales, rent, contracts, and transfer risks before buying.
Franchise
Should you pay the franchise fee?
Understand fees, restrictions, and dependence before joining.
Lease Renewal
Should you renew the lease?
Evaluate whether another lease period improves or worsens your position.
Keep or Close
Should you continue operating?
Determine whether the business still has a path forward.
Store Transfer Fee
Is the transfer fee worth paying?
Check whether the transfer fee reflects value or hidden risk.
