So, you’re considering buying a franchise… but not someplace like Subway. No, not a franchise like a Starbucks - and certainly not a franchise like Dairy Mart. No, the franchise you dream of is a home business. But are there any out there?

A little know fact is that there are franchises out there that you can buy, and you can work right from your own home, without the overhead of a traditional franchise, and the stress that goes with it.

A franchise from home gives you the freedom of the lack of traditional bosses, hours, and workload, and can open you up to be a real business owner.

There has to be a catch, right?

The Price of a Home Business Franchise

Don’t expect to get away free, or even cheaply, from this opportunity. The fact is, you won’t save much upfront money from buying a home based franchise - the cost is about equal to a traditional one!

It comes down to the basics - what are you buying, and what are you going to need to complete your service?

You can expect anywhere from $3,500 to $150,000 and more - and this price only sometimes includes what you need, such as supplies and equipment. Other times, this just includes leasing the same and title!

If you have the money saved, though, or are able to get the money from loans, a franchise can be a lot more successful - and easy to run - than your own start up company, as there’s simply less work to do. You have the name of the franchise, therefore the credibility that goes with it, plus everything you need. Clients will come easier and quicker with that name.

What Sort of Franchises are Available?

You would be simply shocked at the amount of franchises that are available to be run right from your own home! Quite literally thousands are available for the taking, and each one has it’s own unique system, and income.

Personal Care Home Based Franchises

The need for personal care businesses has skyrocketed in the last few years, and there simply aren’t enough businesses - small and large areas alike - that can cater to those needs… a home based franchise gives you the credibility a start up lacks, and the skills to take advantage of this fast growing market.

The most popular personal care franchise is non medical in home care, which can be a great business that makes you money and helps the people around you. This can include going in and cleaning, cooking, and just helping a person who can’t do it them self. It’s a job that you feel good doing, and it allows you to pay your bills, too.

Other Popular Personal Care Franchises Include:

Fitness classes

Children’s party planning

Hair care services

And more!

Technology-Related Home Business Franchises

So, we all have a little inner-techie, though admittedly some of us have less than others. But if you have a love for technology and the drive to work from your own home, you can make a lot of money, no matter what the economy is like - after all, everyone needs help sometimes with their tech issues!

The most popular tech franchise is without a doubt on site computer support services. This means that you go into the home, or business, and help the client get their computer back up and running. This can include anything from reinstalling Windows, replacing hardware, fixing errors in the registry, or just getting rid of viruses and spy ware.

This business is incredibly secure, because no matter what, people are going to need help with their computers - and many times, your business will flourish in a bad economy, because people would rather spend some money getting their existing computer fixed to the alternative of spending a lot of money and getting a brand new computer.

Other popular tech franchises include:

Home theatre equipment sales and installation

Training for children and adults on all matter technical

Computer consulting

Various IT services

Various software services

And more!
