The Taco Bell Secret: How Sweet Talk Built a $39 Billion Empire Taco Bell's founder, Glen Bell, grew his company into a $39 billion empire by befriending a local taco stand owner and discovering their secret recipe. Instead of struggling to develop his own, he cleverly used their recipe to create his own tacos and launched the now-famous brand. Lesson Learned: Smart strategies, like observing successful competitors and forming strong relationships, can give you the edge you need to grow a business. However, it's also important to keep your own business secrets protected—what worked for Taco Bell shows how valuable those insights can be!

Reminder: You don't need to post every day to build a successful business. I can list 100+ successful high-growth brands where you wouldn't even know who the founder is. However, it becomes that much easier if you do 🤷♂️ Let's win the week!

Ask me for more information. 🎙Staff long meetings. 🎙Broken chairs & tables. 🎙Poor ventilation in your work place. 🎙Smelly restrooms. 🎙Dirty & unhygienic offices. What kind of business are you running? If you want your customers to trust you then you need to do better. I hope you will learn something from this post. Chief Brand Expert | BusinessPastor

📅 August Brew Up Business is one week away. This month we convene to discuss the ins and outs of strategic partnerships. These always look good on paper. Instead of doing all the heavy lifting myself, how can I leverage others to further my business development efforts? I just need to find partners with a shared audience and then we can pass leads, promote each other, and be one big happy family! 👨👩👧👦 Sometimes it can be this straightforward, but often it's not. Once you bring another entity in your business sphere and both parties now have expectations of each other - however implicit or explicit - you have entered a relationship. 🤝 And just like any other relationship, it takes communication, shared goals, constructive debate, compromise, empathy, shared responsibility, honesty, and a bunch more things to make it successful. ❓Do you have the self-awareness, social and emotional intelligence, and general people skills to foster high-functioning relationships? If so, please come so we can learn from you! If not, then come and learn from others who have made partnerships work for them! Remember, Brew Up Business is about tapping into the collective 🧠 wisdom of everyone participating.

Are you thinking about starting a business based on personal passion or community need? While this is a common starting point, it's crucial to dig deeper. In my latest video, I discuss a local ice cream shop owner who discovered that running a business involves more than just loving the product. He learned the hard way about managing perishable inventory, teenage employees, and the day-to-day operations he hadn't anticipated. Join me as I explore how finding the right business is often about matching your skills and goals with the demands of the business. #EntrepreneurJourney #SmallBusiness #BusinessStrategy #FranchiseOpportunities

Yep, that's YOUR name and business up there on the poster for everyone to see—cue the spotlight! 🌟 Thanks to the brand recognition you get with Molly Maid, you're basically a movie star in the cleaning world, turning heads and outshining competitors like a true A-lister. 🎬✨ But why is brand recognition such a big deal? Starting from scratch means building your brand and customer base brick by brick, which can take ages. With a franchise, you're stepping into a business that's already a household name, with a loyal fan base waiting for you. Less hustle, more star power. 🌟 Ready to make your debut?

Checkmate Your Competition: Business is a Multi-Move Game! Imagine business as a game of chess, not checkers. While most players see one or two moves ahead, champions plan several steps in advance, adapting their strategy based on their opponent's moves. Remember Sarah? She just launched her bakery. Her initial strategy focused solely on delicious pastries. But upon seeing a competitor offer coffee and light lunches, Sarah quickly pivoted. She introduced a breakfast menu and partnered with a local roaster, transforming her bakery into a bustling cafe. This adaptability is what separates winners from losers in the business world. It's about anticipating your competition's moves and having backup strategies in your pocket. Just like in chess, winning requires more than just the first move; it's about the entire sequence. Ready to checkmate your competition? Think multi-move. Plan, adapt, and conquer!
