| I am exploring the possibilities of purchasing a franchise and do not plan on immediately acting as an operator, only as the investor. I have several candidates who are interested in the concept of becoming a part owner of the business in exchange for running the show. My initial thoughts are that the selected operator/partner would own half of net profits (or a % yet to be determined. My role would be to act as the investor/board of directors - much like how a venture capital firm functions. The operator's role will be to focus on every aspect of the business from start up (except build out) to daily operations until the business is consistent and profitable. The operator will assume the responsibility of opening the 2nd store in year two and the 3rd in year three... ultimately managing all three stores. As an example, if 20% net monthly profits are achieved on a hypothetical monthly gross revenue of $50k, then net monthly profit equals $10k. The operator partner would receive $5k from the split. The investor would receive the same. This amount would "conceivably" double and triple with addition of stores 2 and 3. With this said, I am wondering if there are any other franchise owners on the board who operate in this fashion and what input or advice you may have on the topic of owning a franchise solely as an investor. Thank you, John

John,
Instead of investing in a franchise with a partner that you are essentially married to, why not purchase a franchise in which you simply manage the manager. That way if your manager does not work out, you replace him. And you wont have to split your profits, you simply determine the salary (based on market salary rates, of course).
There are many concepts designed for the investor. This is a far better option for the person investing the money. It continues to give you all the control which is what I would imagine you want in order to maintain and grow your investment.
