The bad news is that you don’t have plenty of choices under $50k. Four out of 7 most profitable franchises under $50k are into commercial cleaning. Other three include real estate, travel agency and convenience store, but for a mere $50,000 investment, you can hardly expect to get into a hotel business or something similarly glamorous. After all, beggars can’t be choosers. If your budget is bigger, then you may consider other options, like invention on one of the most profitable franchises in 2015.
