It's been a hit with both locals and tourists, growing faster than I expected. I'm now getting inquiries from other cities about my business model. This has led me to consider franchising. What are the key steps and considerations in turning a side hustle like mine into a franchise? How do I assess if my business model is replicable and robust enough to become a successful franchise?"
