Are You Building Future Leaders, or Just Whining About Your Gen Y Workers?I keep hearing Baby Boomers moan, complain, and quite frankly, just whine about Gen Y. I am sick of it. If you are whining, then you are not a leader. If you are a leader, you will look at this situation and say, "Okay, we have 70 million super-sharp young men and women coming into the workforce, and we are going to get them ready for early leadership positions..." instead of sitting around saying, "They are so entitled, they are so into their own thing, they are always on Facebook, blah, blah." If you are saying this, then maybe you are the one who is entitled. As I always say, "If you spot it, you got it!" FUMG's How-To Franchise Guide: Let us Help You Educate Your Candidates!Are you spending too much time educating franchise prospects about the basics of franchising? You're not alone. Many franchisors are frustrated by candidates who meet their financial requirements and have relevant industry experience, but then don't seem to know the first thing about franchising. The Domino's Theory: What Your Company Can Learn from the Customer-Driven "Pizza Turnaround"When the pizza giant asked consumers to tell the truth, it ended up back at the proverbial drawing board. (Or should that be cutting board?) There's a lesson in this story for all of us--and here are some insights on the art of really listening to customers. eMaximation's Benchmark Report Reveals "Top 5" Ad Portals In Franchise DevelopmentFranchise Update Media Group (FUMG), the leading industry resource for franchise development, today announced that its website Franchising.com continues to be ranked in the "Top 5" in eMaximation's latest Franchise Benchmark Report for Franchise Portals. Franchising.com has also been ranked in the "Top 5" for completed franchise applications, an indicator of the quality of leads that are generated. Paying Attention to Compensation?: Your Sales People Are--And So Are Your Competitors!Are you paying your sales team too little? Too much? And how do you know? Call the competition and ask what they're paying their sales execs, managers, and staff? Right. Communication Breakdown: Avoiding the "Dark Side" Of E-mailIt's been more than 40 years since I took my one and only psychology course. I can't say the course changed my life or showed me the light. It didn't. In fact, the only thing I really remember from it is that there are six interpretations of any two-party conversation: how Party A and Party B each perceives what they said and what they heard (that makes four); and two more, which are what I might label the truth (what Party A actually [i]did[/i] say to Party B, and vice versa). The point, of course, is that what we think we said is not necessarily what the other party thinks they heard--and further, that what we think we said may not have been what we actually said. Greasing the Skids: How Franchisors can Help Bankers Make Loans in 2010Access to capital is the number-one issue facing franchising in 2010. This isn't just an issue for new unit development--it is every bit as much of an issue for transfers. In both situations, franchisors have a large vested interest in ensuring that capital is there when a franchisee needs it. Social Is Here To Stay: How to Develop and Implement an Effective Social Media Marketing StrategySocial media is more than a trend--it's a way of life. Take, for example, Facebook. According to statistics, there currently are 350 million active Facebook users. If Facebook were a country, it would be the third largest in the world. YouTube boasts more than 5 billion video views each month--and is the world's third largest search engine. And we can't forget Twitter, which just happened to be the most used word in the English language in 2009. One thing is very clear: social is here to stay. Margaritas Mix: Franchise Veterans get on Board for Franchise LaunchThe south-of-the-border spirit of great Mexican food and authentic art could soon spread throughout New England and beyond, thanks to a new franchising and area development agreement rolled out by Margaritas Mexican Restaurant. The Winner's ColumnAs savvy franchise companies continue to flourish in this challenging economy, FUSR will bring you good news each month, highlighting brands that are adding units, increasing comp store sales, striking deals with investors, and continuing to grow despite the economy - maybe even because of it. And, as the U.S. struggles through its "jobless recovery," growth-oriented franchisors continue to look overseas for expansion opportunities. |
