Changing Sides: Former Franchise Corporate Player Decides to "Walk The Walk"Rob Parsons knew all about franchising. He had worked on the inside at Popeyes and Denny's assisting franchisees with real estate. He had learned the ropes. Are You Building Future Leaders, or Just Whining About Your Gen Y Workers?I keep hearing Baby Boomers moan, complain, and quite frankly, just whine about Gen Y. I am sick of it. If you are whining, then you are not a leader. If you are a leader, you will look at this situation and say, "Okay, we have 70 million super-sharp young men and women coming into the workforce, and we are going to get them ready for early leadership positions..." instead of sitting around saying, "They are so entitled, they are so into their own thing, they are always on Facebook, blah, blah." If you are saying this, then maybe you are the one who is entitled. As I always say, "If you spot it, you got it!" Is Bigger Really Better?: Leasing the Right Square Footage and Shape Of Space For Multi-Unit FranchiseesSo often, franchise tenants come to me stating that they are not profiting because their rent is too high. While this can be true, frequently the tenant has simply leased too many square feet. Capital AccessDave Melton oversees a half dozen Domino's Pizza locations in the Big Apple. The New York City market is one of the toughest in the country and yet Melton has flourished since beginning his life as a franchisee 20 years ago. But he hasn't just built a successful business in Manhattan, last year he made the New York DMA the most successful market in the Domino's organization. Now that's power. Playing for Keeps: Strong Unit Economics give Dunkin' Donuts Franchisee An Advantage"If there's one thing the recent economy has taught, it's that it's more important than ever to pay attention to costs during tough times," says Neal Faulkner, a Boston-area Dunkin' Donuts franchisee with 17 locations open and two more on the way. "I say if you're still operating today the same way you were three years ago, you're either out of business or on your way there." Smokin' Hot!: Food Industry Pro Takes Virginia by StormMike Pietrzyk's 37 years in the food business began auspiciously in 1972, when, as a newly promoted manager of a Burger Chef in Virginia, he was put in a store scheduled to close in 7 months. "The restaurant wasn't doing well, and they'd decided to close it," he recalls. "They just asked me to keep it together for a few more months." Pietrzyk worked seven days a week and did his own marketing, passing out local coupons and getting acquainted with the community. Do You Have an ERRS?: Hire the Best with an Employee Referral Reward SystemA couple of weeks before any speaking engagement, I distribute a 10-question survey to the meeting participants so I am well prepared to cover their most pressing concerns. One of the questions I ask is: "What is your best source for new employees?" Some of the possible answers are: "billboards, internal promotion, the Internet, job fairs, newspapers, referrals, schools, signage, and walk-ins." Going Deep!: 9th Annual Multi-Unit Conference is a "Playbook for Success"If the standing-room-only educational sessions weren't enough to inspire the multi-unit franchisees, the spirited address from NFL Hall of Famer Mike Ditka certainly was. It was all part of the 2010 Multi-Unit Franchising Conference held this past March in Las Vegas at the Mandalay Bay. Unit Economics Training: Atlanta Multi-Unit Franchisee gets the Basics from FranchisorBrian Klaubert spent 19 years as an engineer before entering the franchising world. Not surprisingly, he had very little financial background for running a business. That's where his franchisor, Christian Brothers Automotive, stepped in.
