Ever Thought About Starting a Business? #Sponsored #Franchising

Have you ever thought about starting a business?  Have you thought about buying into a franchise?  Have you ever wondered who else was thinking about starting a business?

Supercuts surveyed 1000 People with a net worth of over $200,000 and here are the results:

1. 56% were planning on opening or starting a business within the next 12-18 months. (Either with or without a partner.)
2. 25% of those looking to start their own business were females.
3. 56% of those looking to start a business were planning on having a business partner.
4. 31% of the people looking to start a business were planning on going into business with a spouse or domestic partner.  Can you believe that was about 10% of respondents?
5. 30% of the respondents looking to start a business were going into business with a friend
6. 26% of those looking to start a business were going into business with a colleague.
7. Of those surveyed, females were more likely to go into business with a spouse or domestic partner than males

I must admit that I was a little shocked at the results.  The thing that most shocked me was the fact that females were more likely to go into business with a spouse or domestic partner than males.  It brings a lot of questions into my mind.  I talked it over with my hubby and although we cannot begin to speak for these respondents, we can understand the results.  I thought that working with my husband could make us closer, but he was worried that it could cause problems between the two of us.  Being together in business and at home could scare a lot of people!  

Where ever your thoughts are on starting your own business, having the right information is the key to any plan.  I know that start up costs are a huge issue.  Supercuts has developed and affordable franchising system that can ease that stress!  If you are thinking about starting that business, give Supercuts a look!
