So review overall sales data with caution. As expected, usually profits and owner's income are proportionate to the overall size of the initial investment. The larger the initial investment, the higher profits you should expect to see. Another factor to owner's salary potential is based on the number of locations you own. If you buy multiple locations (usually referred to as Area Development Agreements), you can anticipate that as you launch the next unit, you will generate more revenue and profits overall. Demand for your products, the labor costs in your state, commercial lease rates and several other variables also play a large role in your earnings and your take-home salary. Your financial success are dependent on the overall franchisor's success. Your profits and owner's income is not just dependent on how well your own location performs, you should analyze how well the entire franchise system is performing.
