The book carries an RRP of £19.99 and is available free on request.\r\n\r\nThe Franchise Book is written by Richard Pakey, managing director and co-owner of Lime Licensing Group. He has 10 years of personal experience in franchising and has been a business owner, a franchisee and a franchisor. The wider Lime team brings 26 years of combined experience. The first edition runs to 15 chapters across four parts, covering whether a business is ready to franchise, attracting and selecting franchisees, what would-be franchisees should check before buying, and what to do next. Most chapters end with key takeaways, and several include checklists.\r\n\r\nRichard Pakey said: “A good business is not automatically a good franchise.”\r\n\r\nFree copies are not downloaded automatically. Richard checks each request by hand and emails the book himself.
