Home Economics If you're thinking of starting a business, here are hundreds of ways to run the show from home.

Our homebasedfranchise listing and BizOpp Zone listingsdetail the startup information for hundreds of homebased franchisesand nonfranchise business opportunities. Use this information as afirst step before investing in a franchise or businessopportunity.

Our directories are not a ranking and are not intended toendorse, advertise, or recommend any particular company. Allinformation was obtained from the companies themselves and has notbeen verified for accuracy. We simply present this information as aservice to our readers.

We strongly recommend that you perform a thorough investigationand analysis of any franchise or business opportunity you areconsidering investing in before signing any papers or putting upany money. A good first move is to contact the Better BusinessBureau. Also, ask the company you are interested in for the namesof franchisees or dealers who are already in business with them.But the message bears repeating: Never invest before investigating.And always proceed with caution.
