Franchise Model

Definitions

1. A model where independent operators run local businesses using a common brand, system, and rules in exchange for fees or revenue share. Startup discussions use it both literally and as an analogy for replicable local expansion.

   In plain English: A business model where local operators run branches using a common brand and system.

   Example: "They compared the local-services rollout to a software-enabled franchise model."
