Why Franchise Expansion Need Adversarial Pre-Mortems
Franchise failures follow documented patterns. FDD Item 19 financials reflect mature flagship units, not new locations in your market. Absentee ownership collapses when your first GM quits. SBA loan structures leave zero cushion for the 18-month revenue ramp. Pre-mortems find these gaps before you commit capital.
