<p>Does anyone know of any franchise that offer a program officially or “off the books” that allows you to work in an apprentice type of position to learn the business then allow you the chance to operate your own. I know this probably doesn’t exist, just thought maybe there is some unknown program that someone might no about.</p>
<p>Ya, don’t we all just wish there’s a program that teaches us how AND be a CEO.</p>
<p>Answer: no.</p>
<p>abcboy…anwer yes. </p>

<p>I’ve heard Subway also does that, although I’m not sure as I have not looked into it. I’m sure if they do, it would be on their website.</p>
<p>I don’t think Subway does it, as it isn’t on their website. But, I’m sure there are probably others.</p>
<p>Hm, that’s strange. The Subway that I had went into in a neighboring town had a franchise plaque and the guy that “owned” it (I guess that’s what you call it?) was actually in there as well, helping the employees.</p>
<p>Are you interested in Real Estate? I’ve seen your posts in various Real Estate threads and was under that impression.</p>
<p>yes. I’m interested in real estate as well.</p>
<p>Lots of food service businesses offer that type of program(you are asking). By working your way up to a management position(store manager), there’s a much higher liklihood of starting a franchise with the company versus an individual that inherited millions and said, “I want to open up a krispy kreme so my friends can chill.” Of course, there aren’t many programs that allow “would be” students to enter. Its very rare that a franchise corporation would allow you to train before forking over $500,000 to open up a store location. It is usually meant for individuals that meet the criteria and have the appropiate experience of running a franchise where there is continual training before and after the location is started.</p>
<p>The previous statement is…false. If you have the money, your application for a franchise will have a great chance of being accepted. Period. I wonder why foreigners, recent high school graduates, current college students and so forth are able to open everything from a tapioca express to chik-fil-a. It will take some experience working in that kind of industry (for some, many dont require this at all), but you do not need to be a manager or fork over 500 grand because very few require that outlay of money in the first place - subway at its highest cost requires nearly 300k, but can go as far down as 150k</p>
<p>500k?</p>
