What a weekend. I just got back from Atlanta and had such an eye opening experience on marketing techniques for the 21st Century. A most interesting fact is some of the leading techniques at the turn of the last century still apply, the’re just being used in a different medium. The principles that Robert Cialdini goes into great detail in his book Influence, are alive and well, especially on the internet. A revolution has started. You need to figure it out before you get left behind. Another BigSeminar has come and gone. I can’t wait for the next one! If you aren’t selling your products and services on-line, why not? Check out the definitive training system you need by Armand Morin, Internet Marketing Explained.

I took some time to visit the International Franchise Show in town this weekend at the Washington Convention Center.  For anyone thinking about leaving your full time job to become your own boss and own a franchise, this event is a must do.  At these events which are typically held here and on the west coast, you get a chance to see plenty of franchisors and attend both free and paid seminars that will really help you in your quest to becoming your own boss.  I would recommend that anyone looking to purchase a franchise to start your process well in advance of your target start time.  Just getting educated on all the ins and outs of franchise ownership can be a daunting task for someone especially if you have never owned a business before or do not have a business education or background.  One gentleman, Mr. Mark Leonard, a Subway Franchise owner, gave a very good presentation on insider secrets.  He has a new ebook out on the same subject.  Based on his presentation, getting his material is probably worth doing since the franchise industry is fairly complex and lots of due dilegence is required to land that dream franchise in your future.  You can learn more about his material at his website www.yourfranchisementor.com. 

For anyone looking for additional assistance in business ownership, whether it be a franchise or just starting or purchasing an existing business, give us a call. We can help. 

Recently I had the opportunity to talk with Laurie Taylor, owner of Flashpoint, Inc, a management consultancy specialing in business growth.

You can see a sampling of her approach and techniques by visiting her website at www.igniteyourbiz.com. If you are a CEO looking for the right tools to get you out of chaos and time constraints that are slowing or preventing your growth, you should check out Laurie’s site. I hope to do more collaboration with her company in the future because I believe she has a sure winner approach for growing companies.
