I have been in business with my Father for the last 10 years. He established the business 35 years ago. He would like to retire however we are in a delicate situation regarding his "retirement payout". Does anyone have any advise on how we should go about this and what a respectable payment amount (%) and structure would be?

I applied for a franchise with Sasol Oil in 2011. After I had done everything that they required and having being called to a panel interview, I was sent a short email of regret that my application was not successful. I'm baffled as I really thought I got the opportunity. What would you advise I do as I'm very serlous about getting into this business.

I am a white woman who want to buy in a franchise. The only premises suitable to the franchise belongs to the local municipality, and is in a poor condition. I have made an offer to buy, but it has been rejected verbally, saying that they will only consider me if it was a BEE project. How can I achieve this BEE status, without giving away contol of the business, and how do I get into contact with preferred investors? If I am forced to go BEE, wil the government help with funding?
