Checklist

Franchise discovery day checklist

Discovery day should help both sides evaluate fit. Arrive with questions, evidence requests and a clear view of your constraints.

Before the day

  • Read the information pack and agreement.
  • List unanswered costs and obligations.
  • Prepare territory and support questions.
  • Decide which claims require evidence.

During the day

  • Meet the people who will actually support you.
  • Ask how conflict and underperformance are handled.
  • Separate demonstrations from contractual commitments.
  • Record follow-up items rather than making decisions in the room.

Afterward

Wait until the emotion of the event has settled. Compare written evidence, speak to franchisees and take independent advice.

Turn your research into a sharper starting brief.

Match your budget, working style and preferred sector in around two minutes.
