The #Takeoff series is about crowdsourcing issues important to Canadian small businesses. They tell us about their defining moments and we write about their stories, the issues, and strategies for success or how to overcome obstacles.
Next week we look at a window cleaning company known for its kilt-wearing workers that started working with a larger company, and eventually become a franchisor.
We asked for advice about what #smallbiz owners should think about when making franchising decisions. These are some of the responses we got on Twitter.
@GlobeSmallBiz Ensure that your system is fully documented and not just in your head

@GlobeSmallBiz @LorneChmb market wisely. Show your support. Also make them feel partnership and not a money grab #takeoff
