How a Franchise Bookkeeper Can Streamline Franchise Compliance
Franchise ownership offers entrepreneurs a key to the kingdom of business ownership—with a recognized brand, no less.
However, these advantages come with significant responsibilities. One of the scariest phrases for any business owner (franchise or not) is this one: financial compliance.
According to the International Franchise Association, nearly 60% of franchisors identify compliance management as a top concern.
Franchisees must adhere to stringent financial reporting standards, tax regulations, and operational requirements to maintain their franchise agreements, and to avoid costly penalties.
