Who still needs Internet cafes? Surely everyone has broadband and 4G or 5G? I get that some people are in difficult financial positions and don’t - but they can use libraries, community/council facilities, charities, education resources etc? If you don’t have broadband or phone data for financial reasons then the last place you’d go is an Internet cafe given an hours use is probably as much as a months Internet (if you know where to look). Only reason I’d invest in a business like this is if I thought I could have expanded it rapidly and exited before people worked out that technology would make these places redundant.

Dyed haired Peter. What a most sensible thing Duncan spoke, absolutely perfect, and he clearly knew better than the others what to do.

@BigHalfSteps3 жыл бұрын
Really smart, much wow. And then people who don't invest much don't give a flying F if the franchise does well or not and abandon it. There is something called "Sunk Cost Fallacy" which basically means the more investment you did bring in, the more you are inclined to stay. Like working 20 years in a company to get to the top. Like selling everything you have to be part of a franchise and then depending on the money flow by doing your 100% best as your life depends on it. Also you underestimate how many low flying flies exist there that like to scam a lot and have enough money to be part of a scheme. If one of your franchise is doing real bad, it will spread rumors for every other. I estimate around 75% of people out there not understanding the word franchise, and if they have one bad experience or hear about one bad experience, they won't come in any other located franchise anywhere.

@Dave-Shearer2 жыл бұрын
And the franchise model is viable. If each shop makes 15k profit a year, and is paying a manager, a franchisee can put 40k down, finance 60k in house, and take home a managers salary +15k. It would be a small pay rise after loan repayments compared to being a manager, and after you'd repayed the loan you would have an asset and a 15k bump compared to what you would earn working for somebody else. It's not attractive as a "buy and employ somebody to run it" business, but very attractive for somebody who wants to work for themself.

It is the increasing value of the commercial properties that house the franchise which are the true money earner . The product sold is the income for the franchise owner , kinda like buying a job .

Peter is lying about it not being a good business to invest in. Paying £110,000 for a net profit of £20,000 is 18% ROI. You make about 5% from houses in London. Would you buy a house for £110,000 that gives you London level rent of £1,666!!! Lol i wish he had me in there to help him. They take advantage of business-lacking people which is funny because this guy has a degree in business and I didn't even finish Uni!
@stephenmartin-rolsky42022 жыл бұрын
The difference is that the house in London is an asset that is very unlikely to lose significant value. At any point, you could sell the house and recoup most of your initial investment. With this coffee shop franchise, it's quite possible that if things didn't go well, you could lose a good chunk of your original investment. That said I agree that Peter completely missed the point, and I think this could be profitable for a franchisee. Having said that, this guy should really reconsider the franchising model for now and instead just open up more of his own shops since it's only 40K initial + a loan for the rest.

Ridiculous investment proposal. If anyone has £100k in the bank, why would they spend it on buying a franchise that only makes £30k a year? It's ridiculous. There are so many other ways to spend £100k.

30% return on an investment is not a bad deal if it's consistent. Don't they always say 10% return in the stock market is a good investment?

@@TheJohnCooperShow you can still get them. The cheese and chive disappeared very early on. I haven’t seen the southern fried chicken flavour in at least a year or two but the T-bone steak flavour are very easy to find. Not as bubbly as they used to be. I miss Burton’s potato puffs, golden wonder bacon crunchy fries and KP Tubes, to name a few. I take my crisps very seriously - so hate Walkers because they’ve never created a decent snack. They are good at acquisitions and marketing. Their version of crunchy cheetos is a downright disgrace. They taste nothing like the American version.
