January Big Month for Existing Franchise Sales in California

Frachise resales in California were higher than usual on BizBen. People are leaving corporate America to own their own businesses often need immediate cashflow. Buying an existing franchise can save them thousands of dollars over buying one brand new.

San Ramon, CA (PRWeb) January 17, 2007 -- Frachise resales in California were higher than usual on BizBen. People are leaving corporate America to own their own businesses often need immediate cashflow. Buying an existing franchise can save them thousands of dollars over buying one brand new.

For many people leaving corporate America Franchise resales are an ideal way to own their own business. When buying an existing franchise for sale one can get a faster cashflow and it's often less hassle than opening a new franchise. That was the experience of Sushma Rao who is selling a printer ink refills business in San Diego, California.

Rao wasn't expecting the demands of opening a new franchise. The business is in a good location in a busy strip mall. She was trained well by the franchise company. Still, she says, "If I were to do it again, I'd find something that was established. When you start from scratch there is so much you have never done before. An established franchise has a reputation, clients, and the little glitches are solved for you."

"We saw a lot of franchises closing at the end of December and early January. Most of the sales were to people who left corporate America to become small business owners," said Peter Siegel, owner of BizBen.com.
