Do you know how Jerry Richardson, founder of the Carolina Panthers, became one of the richest men in the Carolinas?     This is a story that illustrates the extraordinary power of franchising.  In the late 1950s, Richardson played for the Baltimore Colts, earning just $250 a game.     After catching a touchdown pass from Johnny Unitas in the 1959 NFL title game, he quit and used his championship bonus to pay for the first Hardee’s restaurant in Spartanburg, S.C.     This later proved to be the wisest move he ever made. Here's what happened next:     💥 Leveraging the franchise model, he opened over 500 Hardee’s restaurants across a dozen states.    💥 He eventually became CEO of Flagstar, overseeing 2,500 restaurants and generating $3.7 billion in revenue.     💥 He came full circle in 1993 when he was awarded the NFL expansion franchise for the Carolina Panthers. Now, that's what I call a franchising legend.     Here’s what we can take away from his story about franchising:    1️⃣ It’s accessible to anyone looking to become an entrepreneur, granted they have seed money.     2️⃣ It’s a proven wealth creation model providing rapid scalability and significant financial growth.    3️⃣ It transforms lives—just as it did for Richardson and the thousands of people employed and empowered by his franchise system.    Interested in becoming a business owner within a dedicated franchise community?     Send me a DM and let’s chat about the possibilities.    #franchising #franchise #businessownership #wealth #football

LeBron James' move into Franchising's fast-casual dining scene has allowed him to tap into a booming industry and propelled a pizza franchise from 2 to 200 franchises in 4 years. However, LeBron's influence goes beyond just business growth and making headlines. This move demonstrates vision, timing, and the ability to use his celebrity status to elevate a business to unprecedented levels. It reflects a deep understanding of market dynamics, an identification of potential, and the choice of ventures that align with personal values. It's about an iconic sports figure and global personality entering the business space and building a legacy beyond the basketball court. Through strategic investments, LeBron illustrates a critical blueprint for transforming fame into sustainable business ventures. LeBron's journey signifies a powerful blend of business strategy and influential brand presence, proving that it's not just about entering the business world - it's about revolutionizing it. #nba #lebron #lebronjames #franchising #nbaplayoffs #franchiseowner

The Role of Family in Franchise Success For many prospective franchisees, franchising is more than a career move—it’s a family decision. Including spouses or partners early in the recruitment process is crucial, as their support often plays a pivotal role in the journey. A spouse or partner’s perspective can provide valuable insights and even uncover their potential contributions to the business. Franchisors who engage the entire family not only build trust but also strengthen the foundation for long-term success. How do you involve family in franchise decisions? #Franchising #FamilyBusiness #Leadership

I was cleaning out my garage this weekend & stumbled on this. When I received it in 2008, I was Vice President of US Operations for an international education company, overseeing field support for all the franchisees in America. I lived on the road that year and focused primarily on turnaround management; stores that were struggling. Moms & pops who had invested their life savings into a concept and just couldn't make it work for a number of reasons (many truthfully not their fault). It was heartbreaking, and quite frankly, the experience turned me off to franchising entirely. I'd been asked to franchise Gigglewaters a number of times and refused for that reason. But over the years, it occurred to me that maybe I could build a better system. Maybe I could be more strategic in concentric growth mapping, keeping stores hyperlocal to start. I could choose zees who were appropriately capitalized and aligned with our clear core values. Rebuild support with the zee in mind first, honoring the leap of faith and trust they put in us. What if we could build a brand where you're not just a number and a check? While Gigglewaters is new to franchising, we're not new to business. Yes, our brick & mortar is approaching its 6th year of operations, racking up over 50 culinary awards, but the depth of the bench in leadership spans well beyond that. My father, Frank Fine, ran restaurants and hotels across the country, at one point serving as Vice President of American Inns, overseeing 75 units in Arizona, Nevada & New Mexico. I grew up in the bars and restaurants he owned across the country. Today, he serves alongside me as President of Gigglewaters. We start our mornings over a cup of coffee and a discussion about how we can make franchising better for everyone. If you're in Florida & ever thought about building something truly special in your community, let's talk.
