Lesson Learned? Can't Buy An Election
Here’s the deal, Ben….
Rove and the Koch Bros couldn’t buy this election. No one can.
That’s one of the best things about President Obama winning, last night.
Maybe the IFA can get back to the business of helping the franchise industry be the best it can be, instead of bragging about how much money THEY raised for the party that has a lot of work to do.
The cares...

debbiedeezy asked: The owner of Chick-Fil-A mixes religion and business because he believes that God is the reason his company flourished in the first place. I don't see a problem with a man who gives credit where it is due?

Mixing Religion With Business is Not Smart...
Case in point; the Chick fil A President’s bungle.
For me, it’s not as much about the gay marriage issue as it is about mixing religion with business.
Strategically, I don’t see how it can become a business-win.
Yes…Chick fil A’s website is probably getting crushed by the traffic it’s receiving. But, I’d wager that 98% of the folks visiting it...

Up With Chris Hayes | Down With All The...
Weekends for me usually involve watching TV shows that keep me informed, get me thinking, and sometimes get me riled up.
Chris Hayes has a fairly new show on MSNBC that airs on Saturday and Sunday mornings. It’s a great show, and he features lots of smart people.
I tend to get a bit riled up, but not because of the discussions. (Okay-sometimes because of the discussions.) It’s the...

ATT Customer Care Doesn't Care
I should have listened to my gut. All I wanted to do was save a few hundred bucks a year in this lousy economy. That’s it.
After 4 long years, AT&T High-Speed finally became available in my suburban area. I received a coupon in the mail for an offer of High-Speed DSL service for $18.00 a month.
Less than two days after it was installed, my HP computer fried. And here’s a...

How Many Toyota Prius's Will Be Seen in The IFA...
I’m looking for a few volunteers.
Would you mind doing a count for me? I’m interested in knowing how many Toyota Prius’s are in the parking lot at the Orlando World Center Marriott in Orlando, Florida during the IFA Convention.
You won’t need to bring a calculator, or even a pen and paper with you to do this little favor for me.
Just count with your fingers. It will...

I Need a Woman
I’m serious.
Actually, the franchise industry needs more women. More women to start looking into becoming franchise owners, that is.
#OWOF
I’m going to be announcing a Franchise Contest soon, and it’s going to be focused on women.
The only place that you’ll be able to learn about it is on…

Really Apple?
Read this quote from the NYT;
“We sell iPhones in over a hundred countries,” a current Apple executive said. “We don’t have an obligation to solve America’s problems. Our only obligation is making the best product possible.”
What a bunch of crap. No one asked the execs at Apple to solve our problems. Just stop contributing to them, you freaking jerks.
I wrote this one day before the huge New...

The New Location For My Franchise Industry Rants
I’ve decided to post my thoughts and opinions about the franchise industry, including rants about The International Franchise Association, and other important things that need to change to make the industry better, right here.

My previous rants are located on my main franchise blog
The reason I’m doing this is to help me stay focused on you,...

Thanks, Anita
It’s all Anita Campbell’s fault. Did you know that I have over 1,000 articles on franchising published?
Did you also know that the first post I did that wasn’t on my own blog was published over at Anita’s award-winning website?
Here it is.
Thanks for having faith in me, Anita.

Sitting on Cash.
From The Huffington Post;
If so many big businesses want to say yes, then why are so many small businesses hearing no?
“For political reasons, for marketing reasons, big banks clearly want to represent that they’re very friendly to small business,” says Ami Kassar, founder and CEO of Philadelphia-based MultiFunding, which helps small businesses find the best loans available...

In The Middle. But....
Sometimes, it seems that some Republicans are really, really mean. I like hearing both sides of an argument. I like to think that I’m in the middle, most of the time. Maybe not? (Of course, I’d like Bloomberg to run…)
Anyway, if people are out of work-and they can’t find good jobs, don’t let their unemployment checks run out.
Act human. For once. Don’t vote...

A Classy Way to Unsubscribe
I send out a weekly, (almost) email newsletter to a little over a thousand people who have chosen to subscribe to it. Very few unsubscribe.
This gentleman did today, and what he wrote when he did so made my day;
“I have decided on a business opportunity and no longer need help making a choice. Thanks for the great insights, you helped me to make a confident decision.”

Is It Good News? Or...
I’m very, very happy that US consumers have been out in force the past few days.
I’m sure that small businesses all across America are more than willing to ring their registers until the cows come home.
But
How are consumers paying for their holiday items? Cash or credit?

The NBA Season: Who Cares?
I don’t. Here’s why;
1. I’m a Clevelander.
2. Lebron sold us out
3. The players make too much money already
I do care. About;
1. The small businesses in and around the NBA cities
