New Idea! Brokerage Franchise Model

Hello everyone, I'm currently working with a independent agent that has a few direct appointments and he is trying to get me to be a "franchise" of his agency name. They are trying to copy Allstates agency model where Allstate does the advertising and brand exposure and you as the agent and franchisee work under their title. Except with them it's the brokerage brand awareness, not the actual insurance company. The split is 80:20. What do you guys think of this proposal? Should I do it? Or should I just join smart choice and do my own thing?
