Well, this is a terrific blog and collection. I will link over to it from my blog shortly. I have put together a set of tips for women considering purchase of a franchise. This site mostly deals with fitness franchises (such as Curves, Ladies Workout Express, etc.) but the points are relevant to just about any. It’s striking that only 1 out of 10 franchises are woman owned. While not for everyone, it seems to me that many women can improve their economic situation by searching for and finding an established franchise (of any type) to operate.
