Hottest Cheap Small Business Franchises



Hottest Cheap Small Business Franchises
   

When it comes to starting a small business franchise, there is no shame in going with the cheaper choice. If you look closely, it’s not uncommon to find that a cheap small business has the exact same ingredient list as its more expensive counterpart. The key is finding the small business franchise that works best for you and when price is a deciding factor, a cheap small business franchise can help you accomplish your financial goals without breaking the bank. Look over the following cheap franchises and see if they don’t sound just as tantalizing as those other high priced business franchises.

1) Rocket Vending
Vending machines can be a very profitable business with very little money required up front. Some reports claim that vending machine distributors can make up to $70 per hour. All it takes to succeed on the franchisee’s part is the focus to keep buying, placing, and stocking candy machines; the candy-loving American public will gladly take care of the rest. For a meager $5000, it doesn’t seem like the payoff should be very high, but it doesn’t always take money to make money, sometimes it just takes candy.

2) VacuVent Air Duct Cleaning
If you want to talk about consistent business, this is the franchise to look at. Using a powerful negative air system, franchisees with this business skillfully remove dust, mold, pollen, bugs, animal dander, fungus, and whatever else may be lurking in residential and commercial ductwork. Between laws requiring clean ducts in commercial establishments and the increasing social awareness of allergens, everyone needs vent-cleaning services all the time, so the business is unending.

3) Creation Carpets and Flooring
The need for a storefront is what makes most retail franchises so expensive. When you take the storefront out of the equation, it doesn’t mean that the business is any less likely to succeed, and Creation Carpets is the proof positive of that. This home based business is exactly the same as any retail business with a storefront, except that instead of keeping inventory on hand—thus necessitating a store—the owner has a collection of carpet and floor samples for clients to browse through and order from at discount prices. They get the same quality service, but you have no overhead.

4) The Drug Test Consultant
For a lower initial investment than the average franchise, this business makes it possible for a person to help others by providing important drug tests that help businesses do background checks and drug screening and helps to keep addicts on the straight and narrow. It’s cheap to purchase, but franchisees will learn all they need to know to run this franchise, and people undoubtedly benefit from it.

5) PosiGrip
Similar to VacuVent, this franchise provides a service that keeps commercial establishments up to par on safety codes, but instead of cleaning ducts, this business coats floors in slip-proof chemical coatings to make sure people don’t fall and hurt themselves when surfaces are wet. Once again, the key to the low price tag is not that the business is inferior to more expensive ones, but rather, it’s cheaper because everything can be run from the back of a van, making overhead costs minuscule while business is very consistent.

6) Made in the Shade Blinds and More
Once again, this value business is so frugally priced because it is a retail business without the overhead of a storefront. Franchisees work at home, purchasing only those window products that their clients want, but still getting everything at high-volume warehouse prices from a central distributor. Applying that money-saving business plan to a market that brings in over $5 billion a year profits both the client and the franchisee.

The whole point of buying a franchise business is making money with which to sustain yourself. If you can do that successfully for under $20,000 at the outset, it seems foolish to get tens-of-thousands of dollars in debt to purchase a seemingly more impressive business that will just get you to the same end. Of course, the more expensive franchises can also be great investments, but they aren’t for everyone.
