“You’ve narrowed down the business, you have identified the business, what according to you would you do as the next steps?”, asks Safir Anand at Brand Licensing India 2015, organised by Franchise India.

Contrary to popular belief, taking and integrating vanilla agreements, Safir Anand espouses the importance of knowing your partner and making clear what the intended business process will be.
