SEKITAR PERNIAGAAN FRANCAIS - Oleh Nik Zafri

Oleh : Nik Zafri Abdul Majid, Disember, 2005 - Sebarang penyalinan kembali harta intelek ini dalam apa juga bentuk tanpa kebenaran penulis adalah menyalahi undang-undang

Penulis pasti ramai di kalangan usahawan meminati bidang francais. Francais juga merupakan satu bidang yang sangat berpotensi untuk dimajukan. Bagi yang meminati bidang ini, berikut ada beberapa 'tips' yang boleh penulis kongsi bersama kepada bakal usahawan yang ingin terjun ke bidang ini.

1. Mengetahui apa itu francais dengan membaca maklumat mengenainya, memasuki kursus jangkapendek/jangkapanjang, mendapatkan nasihat rakan-rakan yang telah berjaya di bidang francais, mendapatkan khidmat perunding/peguam/akauntan yang trampil/berkelayakan/berpengalaman, dan sebagainya,

2. Mengenalpasti kemampuan (pengetahuan dan kewangan) anda dan prospek menyertai bidang ini, jika terasa masih ada sebarang kekurangan yang nyata pada diri anda, maka berundurlah dengan seberapa segera,

3. Mengetahui bahawa francais adalah merupakan satu sistem edaran dan francaisor merupakan penciptanya di mana francaisi perlu mematuhinya,

4. Mengetahui bahawa perniagaan francais adalah seumpama mendapatkan satu lesen yang perlu dijaga dengan teliti dan tidak melanggar apa-apa undang-undang yang bersabit dengannya sehingga mengakibatkan lesen itu 'mati' atau 'ditarikbalik',

5. Setiap perniagaan yang baik memerlukan wawasan - maka anda juga perlu membuat satu wawasan selama 1 dekad atau lebih halatuju hidup anda (termasuk peribadi) dalam perniagaan ini - wawasan ini perlu dipecahkan (dan diukur/tandaras/benchmarking) kepada dasar, misi, objektif, sasaran, hasil keputusan termasuk PDCA

6. Memastikan jenis perniagaan yang sesuai - samada produk/perkhidmatan - yang akan diniagakan dalam bentuk francais,

7. Mengenalpasti kehendak francisor (yang boleh diibaratkan sebagai pelanggan) atau francaisi; jika anda francaisor; (yang boleh dianggap sebagai 'rakan kongsi' dan bukannya 100% sebagai seorang 'pembekal atau agen')

8. Adakah anda merancang untuk bekerja sendirian atau secara perkongsian samada francaisi atau francisor,

9. Jika anda berminat menjadi seorang francaisor, anda perlu memastikan jenis industri terbaik dan berpotensi dengan melihat 'petunjuk-petunjuk' seperti prestasi saham, operasi, kewangan, jualan/pemasaran dan prospektus syarikat-syarikat seumpamanya/pesaing sebelum melaburkan wang,

10. Jika anda berminat menjadi seorang francaisi, anda perlu mendapatkan maklumat semaksimanya dari francaisor dan :

10.1 menilai maklumat berkenaan,

10.2 jika perlu, anda harus melawat premis dan/atau kilang pengeluaran milik francaisor,

10.3 anda perlu bertanyakan maklumat-maklumat secara langsung dengan francaisor samada menerusi surat-menyurat, e-mail, panggilan telefon atau semasa lawatan ke premis francaisor,

10.4 jika francaisor memiliki laman web/portal, lawatilah laman web/portal berkenaan,

10.5 minta dari francaisor sebarang brosur/flyer/maklumat teknikal produk/perkhidmatan atau Contoh surat/perjanjian Tawaran Francais,

10.6 jika boleh, dapatkan senarai francaisi yang telah beroperasi dengan francaisor dan cuba hubungi francaisi berkenaan bagi mendapatkan maklumat mengenai francaisor dan cara sistem perniagaan ini beroperasi,

10.7 jika boleh, anda perlu mendapatkan aliran proses perniagaan (core-business plan) daripada francaisor (biasanya jika francaisor telah disijilkan dengan ISO 9000),

10.8 cuba dapatkan maklumat mengenai francaisor daripada vendor-vendor/pembekal-pembekal/sab-kontraktor yang membekalkan khidmat/produk kepada francaisor,

10.9 sertai pameran yang bersabit dengan perniagaan francais dan dapatkan seberapa banyak maklumat - tetapi ini belum mencukupi kerana anda masih perlu melawat premis francaisor,

11. Memahami cara pengurusan kewangan yang berkaitan dengan perniagaan francais yang telah anda pilih, (samada francaisi/francaisor)

12. Mengetahui bayaran-bayaran yang perlu seperti royalti, jaminan bank (BA/BG/LC), iklan dan promosi dan sebagainya,

13. Mengetahui jumlah modal yang diperlukan untuk mula beroperasi?

14. Membuat satu rancangan/pelan perniagaan termasuk analisa pasaran dan risiko, ramalan jualan, sumber manusia yang trampil/berkelayakan/berpengalaman, ramalan aliran tunai, untung rugi, dan sebagainya,

15. Sentiasa mempunyai hubungan/komunikasi yang baik antara francaisi dan francaisor. Walaupun sesetengah masalah pasti akan timbul sehingga ke peringkat yang boleh 'mengancam' kontrak/perjanjian atau kepentingan mana-mana pihak, namun komunikasi yang baik boleh menyelesaikan segala masalah yang timbul,

16. Sentiasa mendapatkan khidmat nasihat perunding/akauntan/peguam yang dilantik - ini penting bagi memahami kehendak francaisor/francaisi seperti spesifikasi, perjanjian yang akan ditandatangani dan sebagainya.

Samada anda seorang francaisi atau francaisor, penulis ucapkan :

SELAMAT MAJU JAYA!!m
