    Branding Corporate Brand Company
    Have you seen the new commercial and re-branding from Bill Ford and the Ford Motor Company? As you know Ford is in big trouble. So they seem to be changing their positioning and re-Branding. Here's the brilliant re-positioning they came up with (and it pretty much includes everything):1. American Auto Industry is facing new challenges and fierce competition: Ya think
    Franchises are sold as the sweetest deal since time began, but you need to TEST THE PROFORMA before you put the family fortunes at risk.

    A few years ago, I had a business partner who bought a well known restaurant franchise. However, it was well known on the West Coast while we were on the East Coast. Six months later the building was empty. Doors locked! There stood a $350k beautiful tomb for the undertakers.

    What happened?

    Lots of things. Sometimes you can point to the economy. People quit eating out. Like today, gas prices soared and the lines formed at the pumps. Recently, another restaurant owner discovered that his "wonderful" cook was emptying the cooler on Sunday afternoon.

    Waitress gives friends free tea and enters the drinks as water. The dishwasher carries out steaks in her BIG "hooters". For the newbie on the scene, it's one rude discovery after another.

    However, one particular failure stands out from the rest. Franchisees need their own business plan. Prices are different in the South Vs the North. Also, Location, location, location is a KEY factor in success.

They might even send their friends and family to you. But wait. Is that your product or service selling itself? No (that is, unless your widgets have learned to speak).

    Learning a Simple Lesson from an Alzheimer's Patient
    My mother has Alzheimer’s. She’s been in a nursing facility since February of 2005, and she’s more or less bed ridden. One of the many negative effects of Alzheimer’s is rapid memory loss to the point family members’ names are forgotten and some members get forgotten altogether. Another symptom is life regression—that is where the person mentally and emotionally backtrack

    FULL CAPACITY

    Activity does NOT equal PROFIT. Run the numbers with your financial advisor. You can fill every seat in the "house" and still lose money.

    How many service calls do you have to make at $65. an hour to make a profit? How much can you pay the helper riding shotgun? Are you driving a gas guzzler or the economy model service truck?

    Do you run a crew of 5 when 3 can do the job? These are critical questions to your success in a landscape business. My point is.... every franchiser should give you case studies of real success in their particular business.

    HOW MUCH MONEY

    Money is critical for the franchisee (unless you have a "sugar-momma"). When you are told it will take $50k then you need to know what happens if you need $100K more to stay in business. You are NOT an employee of the franchiser. This is YOUR business and YOUR money.

    Few, if any, franchiser will bale you out of trouble. His contract with YOU is in HIS favor. You "pays your money" and "takes your chances".
