SUBWAY OWNERS! I need your help!

Alkinous18

I am considering purchasing a subway restaurant. I would like to pick the brain of current owners to see if this is for me. I have been searching on the net on this topic and am getting mixed feelings from people. Some owners love it, and some seem to despise the Franchise. I am also getting mixed reports on how much income you can get from one store. I would love to get an insiders perspective before i jump on board. You can email me direct or respond to this post.
 
thank you

how many existing subway owners have you spoken to? nothing beats first hand experience. talk to 20-25-30 and keep going. it is never enough. before buying one, see if you can shadow/closely observe the operations of an existing one.  your answers will be given by your experience doing these taks...   
 
i personally know 2 subway owners, both of whom wished they had not gotten in. they are working way too much! however, neither is complaining about the profits the stores make. it is a question of work life balance

I think a few other people mentioned this, but talk to as many franchise owners as possible. It`s the best way to learn. I`d also do some research on the net, just google Subway Franchise owners and you`re bound to find some blogs about it.

Subway is one of the most successful franchise that is making big headways in Asia and China. Do consider that.

Molly says it perfectly. Why do people buy a franchise when they could build it themselves? Sales before Expenses = Success.
Franchises ask you to do the opposite and increase the odds of failure.
