How much do franchises cost?

I'm interesting in starting a franchise, being my own boss. I've always dreamt about the idea and lately have had the drive to investigate into it. Although I have a medical background I'm looking to try something new. I need a change.

Honestly, I'd be fine running a 711 if it was my location and my business. I have a real desire to take this to the new level, but funds are a problem.

What is the average start up cost? Any thoughts you have around this is appreciated.

It can vary wildly. First, it depends on your location (a cafe in New York City costs much more than a cafe in Louisville, KY). Second, it depends on the franchise. Here's a link to give you an idea: http://www.pitapitusa.com/ - click on 'Franchising'

Also, entrepreneur.com has a great section on franchises. Check it out too.

Good luck!
