The Dream
Living on the beach is a common dream. We all want the freedom, both time and financial, to live that dream lifestyle - going for long walks by the water, enjoying the sun, having fun with friends and family, the smell of sea and salt in the air...and what few people realize is just how possible it is to create that dream life. So many have dismissed it as a fantasy, like becoming an astronaut or joining the circus (why do we lose this sense of wonder and imagination and "anything is possible" attitude?). In fact, people are doing it every day. You just don't hear about it, because they're too busy enjoying the beach to be telling you about it.
Beachfront Franchise Opportunities - The Franchise Model
There are many benefits to franchising, and specifically to beachfront franchise opportunities (if you connect with the right company):
- Live on the BEACH!
- Leveraging an established brand
- Enjoy the great outdoors
- Plugging in to proven systems
- All the materials and methods to put you in business (and hopefully into profit) fast
- The support and help from people who have done what you're trying to do and succeeded
However, there are other things to consider as well, many of which get overlooked in the excitement of getting involved in a "proven system" that might be offered in conjunction with beachfront business opportunities:
- Still putting in long hours
- Often working in the business, not on the business
- Paying franchise fees - FOREVER
- Saturated markets
- Restriction to a physical location
- Rent, Debt, Employees, Pressure from Regional Directors/Developers
What Other Options Are There?
Before getting started with beachfront franchise opportunities, it's important to be aware of other options. For example, contrast these points with the benefits of running your own business from home:
- Live ANYWHERE in the world, including the beach
- Leverage an established brand (if you choose)
- Plug in to proven, automated systems
- Leverage time and location - largest marketplace on the planet, over 1.5 billion - people in over 100 english speaking countries
- Massive income potential with no ceiling
- Leveraged income so that you're not forced to trade time for money
- NO franchise fees
- NO rent, debt, employees, pressure
- Freedom to spend time with friends and family whenever you choose
- Freedom to travel and work from anywhere that you have a laptop
- Many more...
The Reality
If you're serious about creating the life of your dreams, you may want to rethink the idea that beachfront franchise opportunities are you ticket out. Or maybe it's perfect for you, who knows. But having been involved in franchises myself I know where that path leads, and I know that its not the kind of life most think it is, and certainly isn't the kind of life I want to create. There are great companies that offer amazing training and mentoring for starting a home based business on the internet, that will show you exactly what they're doing and how they're doing it for free before you get involved. Make sure you're aware of what's out there. If you're serious about living on the beach and creating the life of your dreams, beachfront franchise opportunities might not be the way to do it.
