Answer to Question 1

The advantage of franchising to the franchisor is that franchisors often find that franchisees-as profit-oriented owners-are more motivated than salaried managers to do whatever it takes to maximize the success of their outlets.
The disadvantage of franchising to the franchisor is that franchisors often find that dealing with a large number of semi-independent franchisees can be complex and challenging.

The advantage of franchising to the franchisee is that operating a franchise can be considerably less risky than starting a business from scratch. That's because franchises offer access to a proven business system and product.

The disadvantage of franchising to the franchisee is that participating in a franchise can be costly-franchisees usually pay an initial franchise fee as well as ongoing royalties; in addition, they can be assessed additional fees to cover costs such as national advertising campaigns.
