10 Low-Cost Franchises You Can Start From Home

There’s a lot of talk about the “new normal” right now, but few are quite sure what that new normal will look like or when it will begin. What we can say with relative certainty is that part of that new normal is going to involve a lot more remote work. At the same time, millions of newly unemployed workers are looking for new opportunities, and many are looking for more control over their careers or to follow previously sidelined dreams of entrepreneurship. So, where do these two opportunities align? In remote franchise ownership.

This week, Entrepreneur listed 10 franchise opportunities that can be operated entirely from home and are actively accepting new franchisee inquiries. The list includes opportunities in a range of segments, including education, advertising, travel, insurance and finance.

The list offers a baseline introduction to each brand, including its Franchise 500 rank, unit count and initial investment. Prospective franchisees are going to need to dig a little deeper before making an inquiry, but for those just dipping their toe into the franchise waters, the list is a great introduction to the range of opportunities available to entrepreneurs who want to work from home.

Brands represented on the list include tutoring franchise Tutor Doctor, advertising franchise RSVP Advertising, loan-servicing franchise Lendio, leadership-consulting franchise Leadership Management International and travel-agency franchise Dream Vacations.
