Have a look at this and other free forums. Theres lots of impartial advice. Stay clear of franchises it's usually a sign that it isn't viable as a standalone business otherwise why give pieces away?

The website you refer to has to be the cheekiest scam i've come across for a while<div>You pay them a fee for an area, they then take the lion's share of any work you do and they offer you very little training for a lot of money.</div><div>As you say, going it alone is the way to go.</div>

I was stupid enough to buy there [business] Guide but would not invest anymore in their business.<div>Going it alone, making flyers, talking to local business etc etc</div>

I'm sure it has some useful info in the guide so not a waste of money, as long as you don't fall into the trap posted about above.

The [business] Guide was insightful, not regretted, but I downloaded Tony's Guide at weekend (£4.99) big chuffin difference ain't it.
