Panel: Buying a Business
Many people assume that to be an entrepreneur, you need to launch your own business.
The reality is that there are many existing opportunities available without starting from the ground up.
In this panel discussion, we will converse with local business owners Warren and Pam MacPhee who purchased the Tutu and Lulu fashion brand, as well as local franchisees Nicole and Phil Harris with The Property Guys.
We'll walk through the different paths that each of them took to acquire their respective businesses. We will discuss the differences between being an Independent Business vs a Franchise and what that means for you, the business owner, and your customers.
There's a lot to consider when buying a business or franchise, so let's find out what it takes together!
