Determining the Initial Franchise Fee
Many factors impact the franchise fee charged by a Franchisor. Some franchise companies make the mistake of setting their franchise fee based solely on what their competitors are charging. Although this may appear to be a sound strategy, the problem is that not all franchise systems are created equal, regardless of whether they operate in the same industry...With Franchise Fees wildly fluctuating even among similar type franchise companies, to a potential franchisee the Franchise Fee may appear to be based on a "throw it out there and see if it sticks" approach. However, when the Franchise Fee is properly established based on a thorough evaluation of specific factors, it can be easily justified (and understood) by a potential franchisee.

Growth in output is the sum of the growth in capital, labour and TFP. Capital accumulation is an essential element in the growth process, as it enlarges the economy’s capacity to produce. Increases in labour or labour force have traditionally been considered a positive factor in stimulating economic growth.

The Nature of Growth Oriented Enterprises: Constraints of growth-oriented enterprises in the southern and eastern African region
Categorizing an enterprise as "growth oriented" implies that there is an intention within the top management of the enterprise to grow. An initial assumption, when the current research was undertaken in 1999, was that being a growth-oriented enterprise per se does not imply anything about the size of the company. A self-employed person may have started an enterprise with the intent to grow, whereas an existing enterprise of twenty people may think they have grown enough.

When is the right time to expand?

This works well in the early days where the team is small, communication channels are direct, everyone knows what is going on and is committed to the fledgling business’ success.
