    The Not so Super Sized Franchises

    This article discusses the profitability of fast food franchises. According to the author, the franchisee doesn't profit so much. Sounds like a good reason to be the owner/ creator of a new franchise system to me...... Can-They-Really-Make-Money-Off-the-Dollar-Menu: Personal Finance News...

    Hey Jon.. Thanks for posting this. I signed up and have completed the first week. Do you know of any way to get the other weeks in advance. I had an ebook on this topic that I printed up last year, so I am familiar with some of the info already. I would like to move on more quickly if...

    Doing Business Like Bruce Lee

    MINDSET 
    I just watched a documentary on Bruce Lee yesterday. He pretty much epitomized Fastlane philosophy with martial arts. He took the best of each style and applied it as the situation warranted. The idea was to accomplish a victory (goal) with the least amount of motion (less wasted energy) and as...

    Size of the universe

    OFF-TOPIC 
    You must have just watched "The Universe". It was on the history channel today and discussed this topic. Now what is going to blow minds is that time (or the perception of it) is different around each of those stars based on gravity's influence. At least that's the way I understand it.

    SPOILER!!- Star Trek movie details/discussion

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I have no doubt that if you were in charge of the Death Star, that issue would have been addressed. Skywalker would also have been toast and yoda would have been cussing as he faded off into "The Force".:smxD: I say that just because you seem to be a results oriented person :)

    SPOILER!!- Star Trek movie details/discussion

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I thought of those points too, just decided to ignore it and enjoy the movie. I think it's called "suspension of disbelief". Two other things you missed were: Do you know how long that drill line would have to be to have a ship in orbit and have the drill head only 10,000 feet or whatever...

    Get feedback from your customers!

    I was going to call, but I think emailing is a good idea. Jon suggested sending my original post to the manager of that particular store. ;) I agree with the aspect of praising good service. I also try to implement this approach when it applies. The 3 strikes concept seems like a...

    Get feedback from your customers!

    I could add to that if I may please. Follow up on legitimate complaints. Just a week ago, I went to Sonic for a quick dinner. I've always liked Sonic (for what it is) and never had an issue. This time, I ordered a chicken sandwich and took it home to eat. I think they used old grease...

    New Business Challenge ... Ideas?

    IDEA 
    I thought of the time investment as well. My thinking on that was that if he established a site that would check for interest first (market), he could convert it into a blog with local advertisements/ links to the local websites (affiliate marketing and Google Adsense). That way he could leave...

    New Business Challenge ... Ideas?

    IDEA 
    Good points. So what steps should one take to determine needs? I understand what you mean about not having enough info in this case specifically. I was basing my ideas on past travels (New Orleans, Mertle Beach, San Diego). A few years ago I went to Honolulu, and I saw a ton of singles there. I...
