Sujay Mehta: 许多人误以为酒店由大型公司拥有，但实际上很多酒店是由小型企业主以特许经营的方式运营的。精品酒店的兴起也为小型投资者提供了更多机会。我发现很多人对特许经营模式并不了解，实际上，许多知名品牌都是由普通人或年轻人拥有的。特许经营酒店的关键在于，我们拥有土地、房地产和运营，品牌方只提供品牌名称和预订平台，这大大降低了风险。 Tony J. Robinson: 我认为特许经营模式在规模化中起着重要作用，但许多新手投资者并未意识到这一点。许多特许经营业务，如快餐店和健身工作室，由不同的经营者以不同的方式运营，但都试图控制期望并设定标准。许多我们每天使用的机构或服务实际上是由我们的朋友、家人或同事拥有的。

The chapter also introduces the concept of franchised hotels and compares them to independently owned ones.
  • Many hotels are franchised and owned by small business owners, not large corporations.
  • Franchises typically involve royalty payments based on revenue.
  • Franchises provide a booking platform and customer base, reducing risk for franchisees.
