Unpredicted Entrepreneur

“After attending that seminar, I learned the longest product offering was a two-week bathroom remodel. Every other business was windows, siding, roofing, and driveways, all quick in-and-out jobs where you could create a volume-based business. You can still make your customers happy, but you're in and out and you're onto the next project. I told myself my next business has to be a product where we're out of that house completely within a week to two weeks.”If you look at service-based franchises, you’ll notice that most of them have a very specific offering; things like windows, doors, gutters, painting, flooring, etc. The goal is to perform a simple job and move on. This makes it easier to train your employees, have fewer employees, and scale your business. Franchising works because it’s simple and duplicatable. It’s surprising how large of a business you can build offering one or two services.We cover many current and relevant topics. A few include:◈How franchising can help you ramp up and grow your business more quickly and efficiently◈The importance of being able to make decisions as a business owner◈The simplicity of the franchise model
