Actual for You - The Perfect Fit: Women & Franchising

However, moving too quickly to prototype stage and first disclosure can turn out to be costly for the inventor who doesn’t take the time to find out if his or her invention is already patented. Yet, with over 3000 utility patents being issued each week in the United States, that can seem like a daunting if not downright impossible task. So, what can the inventor do to get the information – and assurance – he needs to proceed with his work? The first thing to do is con

Women are better educated now than ever. They have accumulated considerable corporate experience. After years in the corporate world they are tired of being locked into super-human schedules which often include brutal hours and travel obligations. They have grown weary of corporate politics, the corporate craziness of power struggles and meaningless competitive games. They are bored with unchallenging positions. They long for greater autonomy, flexibility and control of their schedules. They begin to hear that entrepreneurial voice, saying “You’re smarter and more capable than 90% of the management team – why not use your talents to run your own show?” or, “I’ve paid my dues and now it’s time to do work that I love, work that feeds my soul.” or, “Why am I working myself to a frazzle to build equity in someone else’s business? Why not build equity in my own?”

It is of little surprise that recent interest rate rises have taken its toll on house prices across the UK. The number of new mortgage approvals in the UK fell to a 12-month low in April, Bank of England figures show. Mortgage approvals totalled 107,000 in April, down from 111,000 in March and the third monthly decline in a row.

As Chris Crouch stated so well in The Contented Achiever, many companies are experiencing a cutback in workforce, but not in workload! For the employees left behind to pick up the pieces, accessing valuable company information becomes increasingly complex -- whether it’s a password, the name of a vendor for a product purchased years ago, or vital information about an important client or prospect.The computer, while originally touted as the ultimate organization tool, has in reality increased our ability to create a faster mess! Being disorganized creates inefficiency. Inefficiency costs money, causes unnecessary stress, precipitates poor customer service, and ultimate

1. Recognize your motivational enemies in a job search. They are: constant rejection, constant failure, and lack of control. Don’t let them make you inactive and lacking in confidence.2. Look forward, not backward: Every minute you spend thinking about your past job is a minute robbed from your future. And anyway, your previous employer is no longer paying you for thinking about them; you’re giving them free consulting time.3. Focus on your strengths, not your weaknesses. It is human nature to spend more time thinking about your weaknesses than your strengths, but getting a job and being successful in a career depends more on your strengths th

But women can also feel a note of caution about business ownership. They might begin to wonder if starting their own business will be even more demanding than working for someone else. They may have heard horror stories of entrepreneurs that worked day and night with little financial reward. Or they wonder if they would miss the companionship of working with colleagues; they want to be in business for themselves, but not by themselves. They want to be business owners, and at the same time they want to be faithful to family relationships and responsibilities. Whether single or married, they don’t want to take an unreasonable risk that could negatively effect their family or their security. Franchising can often be the perfect fit.
Several characteristics unique to franchising make it tremendously appealing to women. By nature women are relational, they generally enjoy, in fact crave, opportunities to work with others toward a shared goal. Women like to connect at a deeper level, to feel that bond of shared experience. Experiencing something in common with others is rewarding at a deep level. Becoming a part of a franchise system meets this need. It offers women a way to be connected with like-minded souls – you have a built in team of franchise owners with whom you can connect.
