**Getting Started - READ THIS BEFORE YOU CREATE YOUR FRANCHISE PAGE**

Start by signing up and creating your own page. From there, you can use your space for whatever you want. Customize your page. Post your experience and qualifications. Post upcoming events. Start a discussion. Contribute to discussions.  Start your own blog. Look for friends and coworkers.  The options are nearly limitless.

If you're a franchisor, after you've created your personal page, you'll want to create a franchise page to promote your franchise opportunity to visitors of the site.  You'll be able to post photos, videos, press releases and any other information you'd like to share with potential franchisees.  You can also use the site as a means for your existing franchisees to share ideas and strategies.   We suggest that if you would like to both reach potential franchisees and provide an intranet for your existing franchisees, that you create a separate franchise page for each group.  You would want to make your existing franchisee page private - invite only.

For example:

Franchise X Home Page

Franchise X - Existing Franchisee Page

We realize that this requires additional effort, but we believe that it's worth it to ensure your existing franchisees their privacy.  It will also allow you to enjoy the full benefits of the site.

Franmarket.com will be an ever-changing site, so check back often for updates.  We'll keep you informed of new features when they become available.

Thanks for taking part!
