Practice Golf with a Plan

Practice Golf with a Plan

Low scores in golf do not come overnight. Contrary to what some fancy device manufactures may say, it takes time and practice to become a "good" golfer. Unless you're a born natural, which the majority of us are not, golf takes dedication, practice, and time to perfect all aspects of the game.

Your health may be the most important part of your golf game. Having the proper flexibility to make the proper shoulder turn and follow through are necessary to have a free flowing swing. Keeping your joints well lubricated with proper nutritional fluids will add longevity to your golf game.

Whether you're playing a round of golf or practicing, make sure you stretch and warm up before swinging the club. Also, before and during your practice session or round, drink plenty of fluids.

I personally recommend OptimaFlex and Optima4 from TriVita. Both of these highly nutritious drinks will supply you with the proper joint lubrication, hydration, energy, and focus you need during your round or practice session.

Speaking of practice, take the advice I took when first taking up the game; work on the things you're having trouble with. If your putting and chipping are good but you're driving is off, then work on driving. Use your practice session to improve your game.

Always have a plan when you're practicing. Practice with a purpose. It is of no value at all to stand on a range and just beat golf balls! There is also no value in practicing if you don't have a plan and you're not focused. You are just wasting time.

The best players in the world have very specific routines that they do on a daily basis. Again, if you're practicing and not playing golf, then you are working on mechanics. If you're warming up to play golf, then the focus is on target acquisition.

Remember low scores come from dedication and practice. So, Practice with a purpose. Drink plenty of fluids, especially ones that are highly nutritional. And respect the game!

Sunrider Leads

American Cancer Society 'Relay For Life' Certificate of Appreciation

Sunrider International received a Certificate of Appreciation from the American Cancer Society for its support of the 2008 "Relay For Life" that was held May 3 - 4 at South High School in Torrance, California.

This annual event helps raise money and awareness for the fight against cancer. Sunrider and its staff have supported the Relay For Life since 2004, through donations and participation in its 24-hour walk/run relay.

There are many direct selling and multilevel compensation plans available such as binary systems and straight systems. However, Sunrider compensation plan is unique and superior in several important ways, so is Sunrider Leads.
How is Sunrider compensation plan different?

Sunrider leads with a global compensation plan so you can do business in over 42 countries. This allows you to make money around the clock. Sunrider can pay you three times a month, but you only need to qualify once a month. Most plans which pay you weekly also require you to qualify weekly. If you don't work to qualify that week, you don't get paid!

Don't take my word for it go do a Google search for Leads, or Sunrider Leads. Check out the thousands of pages and you will get my point.

"Regeneration" is the principle that is behind all of Sunrider's foods and products regenerating life within our bodies. It is giving life at the celllar level so those cells, "that have over 600 functions" can regenerate or become stronger and stronger rather than degenerating and becoming weaker and weaker. Every year 89% of our body is new! The question is - will our body be stronger or weaker just one year from now?

Franchise for Sale

Franchise for Sale

Franchise owners today have a number of options when deciding how they would like to market and advertise their business franchise for sale. This includes going the "for sale by owner" route which has advantages and disadvantages. The biggest disadvantage being the potential loss of confidentiality and the possible negative effects it may have on the business and its chances of selling. The biggest advantage of a "for sale by owner" transaction is the owner obviously is not responsible for paying a commission to a Business or franchise Broker.

The most common option franchise owners choose when selling a franchise is to hire a professional business or franchise broker to handle the sale. Most brokers are only paid a commission after the sale is completed, so there is usually no upfront expenses. They are also familiar with their local market and buyer demands, and can help maintain confidentiality as well as prepare and price a business for sale so that it has a good chance of attracting a qualified buyer.

As far as advertising, most brokers also employ a number of local and national "business for sale" web sites that can give a listing maximum & confidential exposure to prospective buyers. They also commonly work (or co-broke) with other professional brokers in their area that might have a prospective buyer for your business.

If you're planning on putting your franchise up for sale, it's important to let your franchisor know. Most franchisor's have explicit rules regarding the transfer of franchise unit to new ownership including buyer qualifications, disclosures, transfer fees, etc. So make sure you read your franchise agreement thoroughly. Most franchisor's can also be very helpful in the consummation of the resale and may even have a prospective buyer on file who has expressed an interest in your specific location or territory.

Ice Cream Franchise Opportunities

Ice Cream Franchise Opportunities

I just got back from getting ice cream so I thought I would take a look at ice cream opportunities. Although we did have ice cream at a franchise, when it comes to ice cream we all can relate to Dairy Queen. Dairy Queen has been the ice cream icon and one of the most popular franchise opportunities of its time.

Many ice cream franchise opportunities followed Dairy Queen's lead, like Baskin & Robbins, Ben & Jerry's, Hershey's, and one of the latest in recent memory, Stone Cold Creamery. I'm sure there are plenty of other ice cream franchise opportunities, and I apologize for the ones I have missed.

Buying an ice cream franchise might be one of the best opportunities an entrepreneur can find. But as with all business decisions, it is critical to carefully research the market, all options, and to make the decision with the facts and figures collected. Don't rely on making this decision based on one's taste buds. Making an investment in a business that will succeed typically starts with research and gathering data. Do not by-pass this important step.

The next step to take before purchasing an ice cream franchise is to request information from several chains. The advantage of buying a franchise as opposed to starting a business from scratch is that investors buy into a proven business formula with strong corporate backing and a proven product. The prospective buyer needs to compare franchises to evaluate business structure, amount of investment needed, and level of ongoing corporate support. Most importantly, entrepreneurs must make sure of the quality of the product for each ice cream franchise opportunity of interest.

The next step should be to begin gathering data to determine if the market is strong enough to support an additional ice cream franchise in the area of interest. If entrepreneurs are opening ice cream franchises in areas with cold winters, it's best to account for seasonal fluctuations in sales. They need to ask the franchisor to present the information they have done which shows that the area can support another ice cream franchise. It is in the corporation's best interests to ensure that their stores succeed, so potential owners will likely have done research to assure a strong local customer base.

Finally, do you have the finances to invest into an ice cream franchise opportunity? Finding the proper investors or financing may take longer than you think. If you're going after investors, they can contact trade groups in the ice cream industry for statistics related to ice cream franchises that can assist with the final decision. Entrepreneurs may have to pay a small fee for the data, but these groups provide data about how much ice cream is consumed and purchased at an ice cream franchise versus restaurants and fast-food vendors.

Those who are satisfied that the market will support an additional ice cream franchise and that the investor has located a franchisor with whom they feel a strong business relationship is possible, they can move on to the other logistics of starting the business. Luckily, by purchasing a franchise, the owner will receive a wealth of guidance and proven best-practices to follow when starting up.

As I mentioned earlier, I did not get my ice cream this evening from an ice cream franchise, but it did bring up the idea for this post, and my thoughts about ice cream franchise opportunities. The reason I mention that is because the ice cream industry may have more successful independent ice cream businesses in the U.S.A. than any other industry. Although this is NOT a proven fact, just drive up and down the main roads in your community and see how many ice cream franchises there are versus independent ice cream businesses. Go ahead, do your own research!

Franchise - Following the System

Franchise - Following the System

From my research through talking to franchisees, it's my understanding that franchising demands that you follow the system. So, whether the franchise you’re looking at is a major food brand or a low-cost home based franchise, it's a must that you're a team player. You must be willing to follow the rules in a rather independent fashion. So, if changing the way things are done is among your favorite pastimes, think seriously about another form of self-employment. Chances are, if you buy a franchise, you won't be happy with even the best franchise money can buy. (And by the way, if you find a franchise without a proven way of doing business, run the other way.) The best franchises in the world have the best systems. It's that simple!

Here is an example of what I'm talking about. My good friend owns a Two Men and a Truck franchise. You may know what I'm talking about, the moving truck with the caricature logo of two men sitting in a truck. He always complained that his hands were tied when he wanted to expand or move someone outside of his protected area. The franchisor had their rules and regulations about such things so he was unable to expand his business. It seemed like he was restricted to following the system. I've had many conversation with him and he was not a happy camper.

This type of story is all too common within the franchise industry. It's very important to choose the franchise business that is right for you. You may have heard me say this over and over again, but I cannot stress this fact enough. If you're so independent or you cannot follow the rules, franchising is not for you. If you're the type of person I just mentioned, start your own business, or buy a small independent business where you have total control. Choosing a franchise when you're not a team player can make your life very stressful.

Even if it's only on paper, the best franchise opportunity will produce a stressful life if it is not for you. You probably won't last in a business that you don't like, and you definitely won't be happy showing up every day. This happens time and time again, so find a venture that you love. Don't be part of the adult population that is unhappy at work. The only reason they stick to their job is because they get a paycheck. And that paycheck allows them to go about the rest of their lives. On the other hand, he entrepreneur never leaves their business (mentally); it is constantly on their mind.

Take it from me, I owned a small business for 21 years, and everyday my mind was inundated with business. I did not have a franchise business. I was free to do my own thing. I made the rules as I went. I controlled everything. I was in charge. I was the business and the business was me. I created the system. If all of this sounds like that is what you would like to do, then by all means, start your own business and DO NOT buy a franchise. But let me caution you; it takes a lot of hard work, and a commitment beyond all commitments. It's your life!

Sunrider Leads in the News

Sunrider in the news again

Were you able to attend the The Grand Opening of Sunrider's Los Angeles Manufacturing Facilities? Well no worries, if you were this might bring back some memories and if you were unable to attend or didn't know anything about it check it out.

On Wednesday, July 23, 2008 Sunrider proudly hosted several hundred IBOs, neighbors, business people, friends, elected officials, and dignitaries for a Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony at its Los Angeles Manufacturing Plants. This special ceremony marked the official grand opening of Sunrider's expansion of its main manufacturing operations into newly renovated and constructed buildings of about one million square feet on about 40 acres at 1461 W. Francisco Street in the Harbor Gateway Industrial Center in the City of Los Angeles. This is no small feat because these modern facilities include manufacturing, research & development, offices, warehouse, and laboratories and will support Sunrider's continued growth, new production techniques (including fermentation and alcohol extraction), and increased efficiency.

After touring this new facility, IBOs were treated to spirited musical entertainment from the UCLA Marching Band. Everyone then moved inside for the start of the Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony with a warm welcome from ceremony hostess Sunny Beutler. Dr. Tei-Fu Chen then thanked everyone for attending and supporting Sunrider. Sunny then introduced Sunrider's many special guests, including Los Angeles County Supervisor Michael Antonovich, Los Angeles County Sheriff Lee Baca, Los Angeles City Councilwoman Janice Hahn, Orange County Chief of Protocol Joanne Sokolski, City of Torrance Mayor Pro Tem Bill Sutherland, and representatives from the People's Republic of China, Indonesia, Mexico, and Colombia Consulates. Also introduced were representatives from Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa's office, California State Senator Jenny Oropeza's office, and California State Assembly member Ted Lieu's office. Certificates and Proclamations recognizing this grand opening were then presented to Drs. Chen.
Sunny then welcomed Mike Herrera, Executive Director of the Boys & Girls Clubs of the South Bay to the stage for a special presentation to Drs. Chen recognizing Sunrider's generous donation of a large passenger van to this nonprofit youth organization. This van was available for viewing outside and is being used to transport children from under-served community areas to local youth programs and activities. Following this, everyone on stage then shared in simultaneously cutting the grand opening ribbon to great applause and audience excitement. Attendees then enjoyed a southern-style traditional Chinese lion dance and Dr. Chen "fed" the lions.

After this performance, the Chens joined special guests on a VIP facility tour. All attendees then dined on a sumptuous Chinese buffet lunch and were entertained throughout lunch by creative singing and dancing performances by IBOs from various countries.

Sunrider's expansion into the new manufacturing facilities has generated much media coverage. For related articles and more information on the move & new facility go here

There are many direct selling and multilevel compensation plans available such as binary systems and straight systems. However, Sunrider compensation plan is unique and superior in several important ways, so is Sunrider Leads.
How is Sunrider compensation plan different?

Sunrider leads with a global compensation plan so you can do business in over 42 countries. This allows you to make money around the clock. Sunrider can pay you three times a month, but you only need to qualify once a month. Most plans which pay you weekly also require you to qualify weekly. If you don't work to qualify that week, you don't get paid! In Sunrider, many IBOs earn a stable residual income so they can take a long vacation or do philanthropic work without worrying about their next paycheck.

Don't take my word for it go do a Google search for Leads, or Sunrider Leads. Check out the thousands of pages and you will get my point.

"Regeneration" is the principle that is behind all of Sunrider's foods and products regenerating life within our bodies. It is giving life at the celllar level so those cells, "that have over 600 functions" can regenerate or become stronger and stronger rather than degenerating and becoming weaker and weaker. Every year 89% of our body is new! The question is - will our body be stronger or weaker just one year from now? That depends on what kind of foods we are giving our body - regenerative or degenerative foods. Sunrider foods are regenerative! They give life to the body so that it is able to overcome its own weaknesses and health challenges naturally, creating abundant vitality. Our food should be our medicine!
With proper nourishment, the human body has the power to heal and regulate itself, maintain optimum health and achieve peak performance."

The early Chinese doctors believed that instead of taking medicine to help cure a health problem, one should instead eat the proper herbs to prevent the body from ever getting sick. The Chinese doctor was paid to keep his patients well and if they became ill, payment ceased until he got his patients well again-at his own expense.

While the Sunrider foods and products are regenerating your physical health, the residual income provided through the Sunrider financial opportunity can also regenerate your financial health. It's a winning combination!

Make money with Sunrider while you sleep.

Sunrider Independent Business Owners can or will earn through participation in the Sunrider Compensation Plan. As with any other independent business, success results only from dedicated sales efforts, hard work, diligence, and leadership.

Ok so now that you are a Sunrider IBO, how are you going to promote your new Sunrider business? Many have been taught to go to their warm market (family and friends, fellow workers, people you do business with, Banker, Grocer, hair stylist ect.), And then to Free or Paid advertising. Others just tell you to buy Sunrider leads. Leads are expensive, they not only exact a toll on your bank book, they exact a toll on your most valuable asset, time. Trying to contact a lead is very, very time consuming. Why bother? Just Buy Customers. It is much easier and will build your business much faster.

Searching for the Right Franchise Opportunity

Looking for a franchise opportunity, hang on to your hat? There are literally hundreds if not thousands of franchise opportunities available for you to invest in. Each franchise opportunity has its own benefits and typically the more you pay the more you have a chance to earn.

Franchising has increased dramatically during the last two decades and is quickly being recognized as one of the most effective ways of doing business. It combines the drive and ambition of an entrepreneur with the experience and expertise of a proven business model. Selecting a profitable business venture is the goal of all entrepreneurs, so it's important that you thoroughly research the franchise opportunity. Your research will make sure you're getting the right franchise opportunity for you.

In my opinion, a franchise opportunity that fits your financial situation is the best franchise opportunity for you. Some franchises require little more than the investment of a small franchise fee, while others require exhorbitant franchise fees, real estate investments, inventory and other asset purchases, employees, etc. The amount of money you have to invest will play a major role in what franchise opportunity you choose. In the event that your initial financing proves inadequate, make sure you have additional sources of financing, including friends and/or relatives who might be able to loan you money.

You may want to get the help of a franchise consultant before deciding on a franchise opportunity. Some franchises require that you own and operate your franchise while others allow you to hire a manager to run the business. A qualified consultant can help you with the research regarding which type of franchise is best for you. An experienced franchise consultant has typically been around many franchise opportunities, and they know what questions to ask the franchisor. It may cost you a little up front, but the long term benefits will be well worth it.

The right franchise opportunity for you is where you will be "natural" and love your work. The fastest way to success is to find a franchise opportunity that capitalizes on your strengths and minimizes the focus on your shortcomings.

Finding the right franchise opportunity that fits your passion, gifts, and financial situation may take some time. Finding that perfect franchise opportunity may turn into a wild ride. Be prepared! But make sure you go into the process with an open mind, because you never know where you will wind up. When one door closes another one will open. Be prepared to enter through that open door to see what type of opportunity lies ahead.

Make money with Sunrider while you sleep.

Sunrider leads with a global compensation plan so you can do business in over 42 countries. This allows you to make money around the clock. Sunrider can pay you three times a month, but you only need to qualify once a month. Most plans which pay you weekly also require you to qualify weekly. If you don't work to qualify that week, you don't get paid! In Sunrider, many IBOs earn a stable residual income so they can take a long vacation or do philanthropic work without worrying about their next paycheck.

"Regeneration" is the principle that is behind all of Sunrider's foods and products regenerating life within our bodies. It is giving life at the celllar level so those cells, "that have over 600 functions" can regenerate or become stronger and stronger rather than degenerating and becoming weaker and weaker. Every year 89% of our body is new! The question is - will our body be stronger or weaker just one year from now? That depends on what kind of foods we are giving our body - regenerative or degenerative foods. Sunrider foods are regenerative! They give life to the body so that it is able to overcome its own weaknesses and health challenges naturally, creating abundant vitality. Our food should be our medicine!
With proper nourishment, the human body has the power to heal and regulate itself, maintain optimum health and achieve peak performance."

The early Chinese doctors believed that instead of taking medicine to help cure a health problem, one should instead eat the proper herbs to prevent the body from ever getting sick. The Chinese doctor was paid to keep his patients well and if they became ill, payment ceased until he got his patients well again-at his own expense.

Sunrider in the news again

As the 2008 Olympic Games Approach Sunworld™ Hotel Beijing Awarded Four-Star Rating.

In 2007, Sunrider International, a company known for its global vision and strong financial resources, spent millions of dollars on a full-scale renovation of the Sunworld™ Hotel Beijing. As a result, Sunworld™ Hotel Beijing has reopened with completely enhanced facilities and a brand-new image, making it an ideal hotel to accommodate guests in comfort and style who are traveling to attend the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games this August.

In June 2008, only half a year after reopening, the Sunworld™ Hotel Beijing was awarded two prestigious honors by the China Tourist Hotel Star-Rating Committee: A "Four-Star Hotel Rating" and the designation of "Golden-Leaf-Rated Green Tourist Hotel," with the latter honor recognizing the hotel's fulfillment of certain environment-friendly requirements. On July 4, 2008, Sunworld™ Hotel Beijing held a formal award presentation ceremony with Sunrider Chairman Dr. Tei-Fu Chen delivering a congratulatory speech:

Sunrider manufactures over 415 award-winning products for your health, beauty, and household needs.

Sunrider Independent Business Owners can or will earn through participation in the Sunrider Compensation Plan. As with any other independent business, success results only from dedicated sales efforts, hard work, diligence, and leadership.

Ok so now that you are a Sunrider IBO, how are you going to promote your new Sunrider business? Many have been taught to go to their warm market (family and friends, fellow workers, people you do business with, Banker, Grocer, hair stylist ect.), And then to Free or Paid advertising. Others just tell you to buy Sunrider leads. Leads are expensive, they not only exact a toll on your bank book, they exact a toll on your most valuable asset, time. Trying to contact a lead is very, very time consuming. Why bother?

Just Buy Customers. It is much easier and will build your business much faster.
If you do a Google search for Sunrider leads, you will find there are a lot of lead brokers, some are obviously better that others, but the fact remains it is very expensive to buy leads. Why not buy customers

Furthermore, a person may choose to purchase a business franchise, like golf, in an effort to combine a hobby they are passionate about with a business system that is proven to have positive financial rewards. This may seem like the best of both worlds to some people!

There's just something about doing what you love to do, and making money at it.

How is a Franchise Business Growing?

How is a Franchise Business Growing?

There are a variety of ways to evaluate a franchise businesses growth. So if you're looking for a franchise business and are interested in how that franchise business is growing, the following information may assist you in your evaluation.

A good measuring stick of growth is the number of new franchisees added each year. This information may not be readily available, so it may have to come directly from the franchisor. Also ask about the number of operational support people devoted to new franchisees. The ratio of support personnel to franchisee is important. This can be a good gauge of the growth of the franchise corporation, because the more franchises sold, the more support people you need. As problems or issues arise, you want to make sure that you will be supported.

One obvious fact regarding the number of franchisees added each year, if a franchisor has been in business for a number of years but has added very few franchisees, there may be issues or problems within their system. It's possible that current franchisees don't validate well due to those problems within the system, so it's possible that potential franchisees are rejecting them.

If that's not the case, the problem may be that the franchisor has insufficient staff to handle all the elements associated with getting a new franchisee up and running. This would cause them to reject a number of qualified applicants. Either way, a lack of new franchisees could mean that this isn't a solid or healthy franchise company.

With that said, what would be an acceptable number of new franchisees to be added each year? To keep things simple, the percentage of new franchisees to the number of total franchisees will give you a number that you can use for comparison. For example, if there are currently 30 franchisees, and they add 20 new franchisees in a year, they may be growing at a rate that is too rapid. This rapid growth could cause their undersized staff too be overwhelmed and not have time for new franchisees. This seems to be the most common problem with rapid growing companies.

Somewhere between 10 and 35 percent growth is a good number. This number is based on the current total number of franchisees. In other words, a franchise business company that has 100 franchisees should have the capabilities to add up to 35 new franchisees in the coming year. If a medium sized franchise company is working within this percentage, you can bet that they are a pretty solid company.

The formula listed above is typically for a medium sized franchise business company, and will probably not work for very large or very small companies. If that is the case, there is another number to take into consideration. That number would be the ratio of support personnel compared to new franchisees. On average, there should be one support person for every 10-20 new franchisees. If this is the case, the new franchisees should be getting adequate preparation and support to develop their businesses.

Finding a solid franchise company is just one step towards making your decision easier. After determining that this is a solid company, one you feel you are interested in, your next step would be to do research. This would entail calling and interviewing existing franchisees, or maybe even visiting some of the franchisees. You should also meet with and talk to the support staff. Another good place to gather information on a franchise is by searching Google. Goolge has links to all kinds of informational franchise business web sites and online forums. Plenty of information is available, all you have to do is search for it.

During your research, did you find any areas of concern? Did the support staff impress you? Were they helpful and knowledgeable? More than likely you will be spending a lot of time with the support staff, so it's important that you feel comfortable interacting with them. Get to know them and ask questions. Take note of anything that stands out, whether positively or negatively.

If you've done your research and you are happy with all of the results of the interaction you've had with the franchisor, you can be confident that you are investigating a growing, healthy franchise business system, one which will provide you an opportunity to make your personal and professional dreams come true.

Home Delivery - Buying a Franchise

Home Delivery - Buying a Franchise

There are plenty of franchise opportunities available, so buying a franchise is not a problem for many entrepreneurs. Other the other hand, finding the right franchise opportunity could be a problem. How about buying a franchise that is based on home delivery.

Home delivery franchises are companies that can be bought and operated by individuals. Home delivery franchises provide parcel delivery services for personal and business needs. This is a popular and potentially quite profitable opportunity that can be started by individuals with an entrepreneurial spirit. Although buying this franchise, with the current gas prices, might have some challenges.

Owning and operating a home delivery franchise allows people to buy a well-known name and take advantage of the franchisor's expertise in the market, including their market research, development, training, and advertising. The products the company chooses to deliver may range from everyday groceries, pet food, flowers, dry cleaning, and parcel post items. The convenience offered by this type of venture is not only obvious, in many households, it is essential. Many families now operate on a two-income, stretched-for-time schedule, and these people appreciate the ease offered through various companies.

When buying a franchise, many factors can help a person determine which company is the best choice for them. Considering that the delivery service will likely be in demand well into the future, a person’s investment is bound to be a wise one in the long run.

However, there are many questions to consider before jumping into any type of business investment. A person must know the track record for the home delivery franchise, not only in the local community, but also nationally. It's also important to know how much and what kind of support and training is offered by the company. One of the most important questions to seek answers to is the insurance regulations for the various home delivery franchises.

Buying a franchise, without having your questions answered, may leave you i a very stressful and lonely position. There are many franchises that tell you one thing and do something entirely different. During your research, and before buying a franchise, many of your questions will be answered. Some of those answers lead to other questions, which is part of the process of researching the franchise opportunity. A person cannot, or should not, go forward with a contractual agreement without doing the proper research.

Most people who consider investing in a delivery franchise opportunity have experience in some aspect of customer service and/or delivery. This background certainly helps people to know if they will be good at operating a home delivery franchise. If the individual has spent their career behind a desk and not interacting with people in a customer service role, they may want to consider working at least part-time in a retail establishment before launching this operation.

It is important to learn as much as possible about dealing with difficult people, laws that govern various employment practices, and everything else that will help make buying a franchise a successful endeavor. Before buying a franchise, do your research, and most importantly, take a personal inventory. Start with 2 simple questions: 1. Am I cut out for a franchise business? 2. Is buying a franchise the right decision for me? These 2 questions should lead you to making the right choice.

If money is an issue, you may want to consider an alternative to buying a franchise. The Ultimate Team provides information regarding a business alternative. Not everyone is cutout for a franchise business, and not everyone has the money to buy a franchise. If you fit that category and would still like to have your own business, one that is NOT a franchise, contact the Ultimate Team.

Choosing the Right Franchise Opportunity

Choosing the Right Franchise Opportunity

Franchises in 2008 total approximately 2500 in 18 industries ranging from automotive franchises to kids franchises to home based businesses to franchises for women. Is there one particular franchise industry that seems to be growing faster than another?

Franchises are an enormous part of our economy, and franchise opportunities are in abundance. If you think about it, I'll bet over 50% of all retail sales generated in the United States are generated by franchise businesses. Why do you suppose I feel that way? Because franchising allows multiple business owners to capitalize on the expertise of others.

Finding the right franchise opportunity is one of the most important things. If a person can find that franchise opportunity that is right for them, there are a few things they must consider before making an investment. Since there are so many types of franchise opportunities, the individual will want to choose the one that suits their interests and abilities. Choosing a franchise opportunity that suits their interests and abilities will make it easier to go to work every day. It will also help that person to be more committed to the business.

Also, it is important to look at all of the market information regarding each company. The individual will want to review all of the disclosure documentation for the franchise opportunity to make sure that it is a good industry or market to get into. Local competition is also a factor to consider.

No matter which company is chosen, it is important to get into a franchise opportunity for the right reasons. Money shouldn't be the only reason. Changing market trends can sometimes lead to rough times. "Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom". (Proverbs 23:4) It is important for an entrepreneur to remember that God gives everyone special talents. People should take pleasure in using them in their labor.

Keeping that in mind, it's very important to do an inventory of yourself even before looking into a franchise opportunity. You may find out that owning a franchise does not fit your personality. You may find out that God does not want you to invest your hard earned money into something you know absolutely noting about.

If you're a self starter and like to do things your own way, then you may want to steer clear of a franchise opportunity. Doing a personal inventory will reveal what you really want, and what God wants for you.

Franchises for Sale In Your Town?

Franchises for Sale In Your Town?

As a result, over 94% of franchisees consider themselves successful, over 75% of franchisees would buy their franchise again if they had it to do over, and their average pre-tax gross income is $ 124,290. In addition, more than 90% of franchised businesses are still open after 5 years, while less than 50% of non-franchised businesses are still open at the end of that timeframe.

Are there franchises for sale near you that could possibly transform your life by creating a new income source and a sense of accomplishment? It's possible!.

If you haven't noticed, there are plenty of franchises for sale, all you have to do is look around. Who knows, there may even be franchises for sale in your own town. It's very possible!

With all the different opportunities and alternatives available sometimes it's difficult to figure out which one is best for you. The place to start, Google. After searching Google under "franchises for sale", you'll want to do additional research on the company selling the franchise, the current owner of that franchise, and the franchisor. If you're ready for a franchise business of your own, you must understand what it takes to become successful in business. It also helps to understand how to choose which franchise is right for you.

Just because you found several franchises for sale that may be right for you, it does not mean one of them is right for you. Do you have the support of your spouse and/or family? Do you know what you're looking for in a franchise business? Do you have what it takes to run a business? Buying a franchise takes hard work and time to keep it successful (hopefully you'll buy a franchise that is successful). Do you have the time and energy to put forth the effort to stay successful?

These are just a few questions you can ask yourself. I'm sure once you got started, many more questions will start to surface. Buy answering questions, you can also get a real and genuine idea of the type of franchise business you're looking for. Take Wendy's for example. Buying a Wendy's franchise would take an exorbitant amount of money. How many people have a lot of cash sitting around that they would like to invest into a Wendy's franchise? Currently, Wendy's is not accepting any new franchise applications in the United States, so looking for Wendy's franchises that are for sale would be the only way you could get a Wendy's franchise.

On the other hand, Fatburger Restaurants has grown to a multi-restaurant chain with awesome growth potential. Starting with humble beginnings many years ago in the spotless kitchen of Ms. Lovie Yancey, her guests enjoyed her hamburgers so much that she was encouraged to share her unique recipe with the world. Ms. Yancey took their advice and opened her first restaurant in Los Angeles, in 1952.

Since there is awesome growth potential owning a Fatburger franchise, I believe you can either buy a new Fatburger franchise, or find some franchises for sale, maybe even in your own town. Whatever the case, there are plenty of franchises for sale. Wendy's and Fatburger are just two of the thousands of franchises for sale.

If you believe that a franchise is the way to go, then start with Google and type in the keyword phrase, franchises for sale. You'll find thousands of sites with information on a franchises for sale. You may even find franchises for sale in your own town.

Several years ago, if a person wanted to get their car fixed, they would go up to the mom-and-pop gas station on the corner. The gas station would do everything from an oil change to a complete engine overhaul. Today, most gas stations are just that, gas stations. With the growing number of automotive franchise opportunities, there are now shops that specialize in tires, oil changes, tune-ups, or just sell auto parts. This has opened up many options to potential business owners. They can now choose to invest in an auto parts store, a car rental store, or an auto repair shop.

If you're up for a automotive franchise opportunity, before making the decision of which opportunity to invest in, potential business owners will want to consider if this is right for them. As a benefit, automotive franchise opportunities offer the support of the franchise headquarters. Inventory and parts can be obtained at cheaper rates through the headquarters as well. An automotive franchise requires much less local marketing because the headquarters usually markets on a national level. The franchisee (business owner) also benefits from the brand name. If consumers see a national commercial or recognize the logo, they are more likely to become customers.

As a downside, buying into one of the automotive franchise opportunities can be a huge investment. It costs a great deal of money up front so not all potential business owners can afford the investment. Another disadvantage is that automotive franchise owners are held completely accountable to their headquarters. Turning in all financial and business documentation is required from the franchisor (corporate office). Also, owners have to pay royalties and marketing fees to the headquarters on a regular basis. The amount of fees depends on the popularity of the brand name, which can be thousands of dollars per month. Business owners may not like the fact that automotive franchise opportunities also have specific rules, regulations and policies that each franchise must abide by. Some people prefer to run things their own way.

Keeping that in mind, it's very important to do an inventory of yourself before even looking into franchise opportunities. You may find out that owning a franchise does not fit your personality. If you’re a self starter and like to do things your own way, then you may want to steer clear of any and all franchise opportunities. Doing a personal inventory will reveal what you really want.

Franchise for Sale On Your Street Corner?

Franchise for Sale On Your Street Corner?

Many people dream of being an entrepreneur. By purchasing a franchise, you often can sell goods and services that have instant name recognition and can obtain training and ongoing support to help you succeed. As a result, over 94% of franchisees consider themselves successful, over 75% of franchisees would buy their franchise again if they had it to do over, and their average pre-tax gross income is $ 124,290. In addition, more than 90% of franchised businesses are still open after 5 years, while less than 50% of non-franchised businesses are still open at the end of that timeframe.

Is there a franchise for sale near you that might transform your life, creating a new income source and a sense of accomplishment? Could be.

There are plenty of franchise for sale, all one has to do is look for them. There may be a franchise for sale on your own street corner.

There are so many different opportunities and alternatives available that it's sometimes difficult to figure out which is the best franchise for you. After searching Google under "franchise for sale", you'll want to do additional research on the company selling that franchise. If you're ready for a franchise business of your own, you must also understand what it takes to succeed in business, plus how to choose which franchise is right for you.

Just because you found a franchise for sale, does not mean it is the right one for you. Do you know what you're looking for in a franchise business? Do you have what it takes to run a business? Do you have the support of your spouse and/or family? Buying a franchise that is for sale takes hard work and time to become successful. Do you have the time and effort to put forth to become successful?

There are many questions one can ask themselves to find out if buying a franchise for sale is right for them. A person can also get a real and genuine idea of the type of franchise business they are looking for. Take Wendy's for example. Buying a Wendy's franchise would probably take an exorbitant amount of money. How many people have a boat load of cash sitting around to buy a Wendy's franchise? Currently, Wendy's is not accepting any new franchise applications in the United States, so buying a franchise for sale would be the only way you could get a Wendy's franchise.

On the other hand, Fatburger Restaurants, from humble beginnings many years ago in the spotless kitchen of Ms. Lovie Yancey, has grown to a multi-restaurant chain with awesome growth potential. Ms. Lovie Yancey guests enjoyed her hamburgers so much that she was encouraged to share her unique recipe with the world. Ms. Yancey took their advice and opened her first restaurant in Los Angeles, in 1952.

Since there is awesome growth potential, I believe you can either buy a new Fatburger franchise, or find a Fatburger franchise for sale. Whatever the case, there are plenty of franchise for sale. Wendy's and Fatburger are just two of the thousands of franchises for sale.

If you believe that a franchise is the way to go, then start with Google and type in the keyword phrase, franchise for sale. You will find thousands of sites with information on a franchise for sale. You may even find a franchise for sale on you own street corner.

Choosing the Right Franchise

Choosing the Right Franchise

What is the best way to choose the right franchise business? The decision to buy a franchise business is a big one. You may wind up putting a lot of money on the line to buy that franchise. So it's critical that you buy the franchise that's right for you. The best place to start when considering franchise opportunities is with a business that you have always hoped to own. You may also recognize that your community needs a certain type of business, or that there is something missing in your town. Filling one of these gaps with a new franchise opportunity can be an excellent choice.

The second aspect to consider when looking at a franchise is the cost. The cost can be substantial, and all franchise opportunities' cost varies. One thing to take into consideration is the resources you have available. Many franchisors want the potential franchisee to have a certain amount of liquid assets before they will consider selling them their franchise. Lending options are another way to find those liquid assets. Do you have anyone that would help you invest in your business? having investors is yet another way to generate capital.

Can you afford the time required to make your business a success? Are you currently working a job? Will that job allow you the time to insure your franchise gets started and runs properly? These are important things you need to understand before jumping into a franchise business. Being with the business at the beginning is critical. No manager or employee is going to run the business the same way the person that invested the money. Make sure your can spend the time required to make your business a success.

The final aspect to consider is research. You should carefully research the franchisor before even considering entering into a franchise agreement. The franchisor should be able to provide you with all the relevant information, including costs up front. Even though that is the case, it makes good sense to get references, by visiting other franchises, or searching Google. You may even want to call the Better Business Bureau. The more positive information you can find on the franchisor the more confident you will be that this is a good opportunity. One more thing; make sure you find out what sort of training and support is available for new franchise business owners. The proper training is critical, but more importantly will be the support you receive after you pay for the franchise.

Many Business Franchises Rely on Location

Many Business Franchises Rely on Location

One of the great things about a business franchise is that it takes a lot of the work out of starting your own business. With many business franchises, promoting your company is already taken care of. If you are starting a McDonald's franchise, for example, you don't need to take out ads. Everyone already knows McDonald's and either likes it or doesn't. You simply have to have a restaurant in a convenient location where people drive past every day. The rest will take care of itself.

Of course, business franchises don't always work out the first time. Many business franchises simply don't have a good enough location at first. There are many people that open a business franchise and at first, it does all right, but after a few months they fold. Most franchisees, simply put, work too hard for not enough money. On the other hand, when the same franchisee reopens in a better location, business will take off right away. Soon, they are practically rolling in the money. Just by changing locations, many franchisees can turn their business franchise into one of the most profitable franchises in their town. Even though the franchisor takes a big cut of the profits, there is still plenty of money left for the franchisee.

How many times have you heard someone say location, location, location; location is everything. With some business franchises that's is so true, but with others, it does not matter. If you own a home based business franchise, it can prosper from any location, whereas, a McDonalds, Quiznos, or Burger King business franchise relies highly on its location. High traffic areas are a must for a lot of business franchises to survive. Without the proper location, a franchise can struggle and then wind up folding in a very short period of time.

A Franchise Solution holds a great reputation for the best business franchise information you will find on Google.

With over 140,000,000 men nationwide looking for an alternative to typical women salons, Gordon was right on track. There's been a little tweaking, but the original concept of creating a "Championship Experience in an exciting sports-themed environment" remains the cornerstone of Sport Clips.
