I hope the above list are Franchises you aren't generally thinking of. Many people think about the Restaurant Franchises such as McDonalds, Wendy's, Denny's, Subway, etc.

The one I'm seriously looking at as a side income is CruiseOne Inc. It can be done at home, or at a third party location. I need to brush up on my sales skills though

Anyone else look into starting their own business through the franchising Route.
