    My suggestion is to visit local stores and ask questions.
    Do they like the business? Without asking what they make a year, ask them if it can be profitable. Ask, ask, ask. Offer someone a free lunch if they answer your questions. Gives them a little incentive to be more forthcoming. Oscar.

    PS Baby white or what ever her name is, is wrong about pricing at the stores vs. the hubs. Insurance being the only casualty their. The stores charge more for insurance. Also, mbe4120 seems a little bitter. Must not be doing as well as some of the other stores. I know someone who is running one. He is making more than he ever has. Don't listen to us, go to the stores.
    Buy in is between 150.000 and 260.000. They want you to have 40.000 cash on hand. Good luck.

    You need to learn first about franchising, as it is a complex and expensive arrangement. Yes, there are contracts involved and getting out of a franchise agreement is not easy. Startup costs are also significantly higher, and you have recurring royalty fees that you need to pay to the company.

    Here are some resources to help you learn more about franchising:

    Assuming that you are an Indonesian.

    Apakah and sudah memikirkan usaha membikin donat jika anda memang mau membuat usaha di perusaha-an makanan. Karena usaha di bidang makanan kecil tidak menggunakan terlalu banyak uang.
    Kalau memang anda meng-inginkan perusahaan komputer, saya tidak tahu apa yang ada. Karena usaha di komputer memang banyak membutuhkan biaya. Apa anda pernah memikirkan WarNet? Warung Internet sekarang sangat populer, apalagi kalau ada telefonnya.

    The magazine Entrepreneur has a lot of information on franchises in nearly every issue. Most of the information can also be found on their website (link below). They have comparison charts of start-up costs, franchise fees, average income and nearly everything else you would need for an accurate comparison to narrow down your choices. The magazine also directs you in obtaining more information on each franchise. I find it very useful.

    To supplement the prior answerer's information, he's right in suggesting that you must know your competition. There is at least one very good website offering similar information; it's the best I've seen and you might want to take a look at it:
