Why would a franchise company which has master franchisees in charge of regions and those regions in charge of the franchisees and the franchisees in charge of their stores and each store has a manager in charge of the employees? After all doesn't that represent 5-levels of marketing? Isn't franchising the duplication and replication of a business method and brand name? Why would Franchisors be angry at a Multi Level Company which basically in "abstract theory” anyway operates in such a similar way?
Well, I am a franchisor so let me explain my beef with this particular situation. You see as a franchisor, I have all these rules of what I can and cannot say. In fact there are some laws, which prohibit things I am allowed to say even if they are true, unless I pay a high priced accountant to do many audits of my franchisees to prove that it is true.
If those are violated or rather if a franchise buyer tells the government I told them something
