10 Unexpectedly Cool Franchises

I have never started a franchise (yet) or opened a franchise location, so I can't discuss the pros and cons from practical experience. But I do know the people who make the most money in a franchise are its founders. We all know that a McDonald's restaurant throws off cash, but it is Ray Kroc (the founder of the McDonald's franchise) who collected proceeds from ALL the restaurants.

Why not start your own franchise? Here are ten franchises from all different industries. See one that you like? Create your own!
