Be Different - Two Webinars to Highlight Two Different Franchise Opportunities

Be different!  Franchises are More Than Just Fries.

When you hear the term franchise, there are two things that usually pop into mind.

  • Restaurants
  • Pro Sports Teams 
Experian reported in 2014 that the top choice for entrepreneurial startups was restaurants. 10.6% of new businesses were restaurants. Personal services accounted for 6.9%, miscellaneous retail for 6.6%, business services for 6.3%, and general contractors 5.5%.

According to the National Restaurant Association, there are already 1 million restaurant locations in the United States. (70% of those are single-unit operations).

Here’s your chance to be different. There are two FREE webinars coming up on Wednesday, June 24.


LIGHT MANUFACTURING
2:00pm – 3:30pm
Take a dive into a light manufacturing opportunity in a professional, business-to-business format. Some of the highlights include: traditional business hours, few employees with high skill levels, and high repeat business.

This webinar will feature the founder and president of the company, as well as several business unit owners in varying stages of growth.

HEALTH AND WELLNESS
8:00pm – 9:00pm
This concept offers two options, an owner-operator model or a semi-absentee model. This high value franchise concept features a low start-up cost, a simple turnkey model and flexible schedules. This concept also emphasizes a large charitable component within its community and offers not only the opportunity to make a difference, but also to make a living.
