Drama Kids was among 300 franchise brands, representing over 6,400 female franchise owners, that participated in Franchise Business Review’s research. Drama Kids’ franchisees were surveyed on 33 benchmark questions about their experience and satisfaction regarding critical areas of their franchise systems, including leadership, training & support, financial opportunity, core values (e.g., honesty and integrity of franchisor), and work/life balance. An additional 16 questions asked franchisees about their market area, demographics, business lifestyle, overall enjoyment running their franchise, and role in the franchisee community.
