Choosing a magazine franchise

If you want to run your own community magazine, you might be bewildered by the choice of franchises now available. If you do want to buy a franchise, I have made a useful list on Family Friendly Working, alongside hundreds of other resources for people who want a flexible job or to become self employed.

The most important thing to find out about the franchise is the sales training that they offer. Ad sales will determine your magazine's success or failure. Ask about the traning, as well as the practical side of magazine production.
