It is absolutely critical to your long-term success and happiness that you go into business with a franchisor whose professional values and goals align with your own. This relationship will be ongoing, so take your time to get to know each other and understand the expectations for the type of interactions that you will have with your franchisor partner and with other the rest of the team that will support you every day all the time in your business endeavors together.
