Hello bealer-ga:
It was a real pleasure to answer your question BUT I have a complaint,
too. Why did you ask such an interesting question? I myself got so
immersed in the related websites during my research that I missed out
on a couple of important things.
ANSWER FOR THE FIRST QUESTION: It is only the personal opinions of the
customers, experts and the owners that can tell the real story;
therefore I have compiled certain listings that validate the fact that
indeed Quiznos is a good franchise. Following is the proof:
ENTRPRENUER MAGAZINE RANKINGS
http://www.entrepreneur.com/franzone/details/0,5885,12-12---282737-3,00.html?section=rankings
#6 franchise among the top 500.
# 9 fastest growing among the top 500.
#9 Americas global franchise.

Also read the reviews of the 63 customers of the Quiznos at
EPinions. I think a 4 star rating for a quick fast food service is
not at all bad. You will notice that the customers who are not
satisfied with Quiznos are not satisfied with the customer
servicenot the food.

Now let me answer you SECOND QUESTION. If you are looking for a low
cost franchise, go to http://www.franchisesolutions.com where you can

You should also read the article from Entrepreneur Magazine for low
