With higher fuel prices we are starting to see a heck of a lot less traffic. This is very good for our lungs and the planet claim environmentalists and no matter what you think about Global Warming, it makes sense not to pollute the air. Many folks are deciding to ride bikes to save fuel and save money and why not you can also help your waistline, stay in-shape and perhaps save money on health care too!
But did you know that bicycle sales are up some 300%? This is even higher than scooter sales at the motorcycle dealerships. Interestingly enough, I am not surprised bicycle sales are up that much, in fact, I was a recent customer buying a new bicycle for all the same reasons above. Yes, like many consumers, I am voting with my dollar against high-gasoline costs and our nation's addiction to Middle Eastern Foreign Oil.
Okay, so how does this information or obvious news help you? Well, think about it for a second, if cycling is the new "in thing" and you are in the market for a franchise; why not consider a bicycle store franchise? That's right sell bicycles to all the consumers who want to save money? Make money by saving people money, sounds like a win/win situation.
Of course, you must do your due diligence before you buy any franchise offering, and you need to understand the terms, the royalty payments and the purchase requirements that are required to maintain your franchise; namely how many bicycles do you have to buy to hold your franchise agreement or dealership contract in affect?
