Large service company franchise systems are a lot to manage. Luckily with many franchise owners they work much more efficient than straight managers because it is their money on the line and they know it. Franchise services companies which clean carpets, pave driveways, clean mini blinds, change oil in cars or even groom dogs need nationwide systems for customer credit card approvals, as well as gift c

9) If you hire an outsider to the top levels, their views should be considered as important as those managers who are members of your family.
10) Promotions and incentives should be based on skills and contribution to the company, not because a particular employee or manager is part of the family.
11) Never let the business stagnate through associating only with a closed clique of family members; you should approach outsiders for ideas and guidance if you think the long-term association within the same group is restricting the flow of new ideas.
Many family-owned businesses find their family members discussing issues related to home at the workplace, or vice-versa. Business growth is also hampered when the family is not ready for the changes and new ideas that can come only when you consider the views of outsiders. Good leadership and management, as well as understanding that family dynamics do not always work in a business setting, are keys to running a successful family-owned business.
