Because of that, the aim of this paper is to analyze the influence of some macroeconomic variables economic growth and unemployment rate- and other franchise specific variables initial investment and up-front franchise fees in the decision of franchising a system outlet during the period 2000 2009. To reach this objective we chose a sample of 352 franchise systems that operate in the Spanish market using panel data methodology. The results concluded that initial investment and up-front franchise fees are signals received by franchisees as franchisors want them to be perceived. In addition, they support the decision by unemployed workers to franchise outlets in the period under study. Theory of Signals and Panel Data methodology are the relevant aspects in this paper.La franquicia, entendida como una forma de emprender un negocio, contribuye a generar empleo. Por ello, el objetivo del presente trabajo es analizar la influencia de algunas variables macroeconómicas –crecimiento económico y tasa de desempleo– y otras variables específicas de la franquicia –inversión inicial y derechos de entrada–, en la decisión de franquiciar un establecimiento en una enseña durante el periodo 2000-2009. Para alcanzar este fin se eligió una muestra de 352 enseñas de franquicias que operan en el mercado español y se aplicó la metodología de datos de panel. Los resultados obtenidos concluyeron que la inversión y los derechos de entrada son señales percibidas por los franquiciados como los franquiciadores quieren que sean percibidas; además en el periodo estudiado favorecen la decisión por parte de los desempleados de franquiciar establecimientos como una forma de autoemplearse. La Teoría de Señales y la metodología de datos de panel destacan en este trabajo como aspectos relevantes y novedosos.ESIC University202520252011info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://hdl.handle.net/10259/11060reponame:Repositorio Institucional de la Universidad de Burgos (RIUBU)instname:Universidad de Burgos (UBU)EspañolEsic market. 2021, v. 42, n. 140, p. 107-125https://revistasinvestigacion.esic.edu/esicmarket/index.php/esicm/article/view/134Atribución 4.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:riubu.ubu.es:10259/110602026-05-28T07:56:11Z
