Quotes
“The thing about franchising is that — and I think it’s certainly a myth and I have to overcome that — I’m going to become a franchise owner, it’s a proven process, I have automatic success. No, you gotta work it. You have the tools and the processes to create your success, but you have to execute.” – Rick Morgin
“If you’re looking to buy into a franchise system, the cues that you’re looking for are responsiveness and transparency.” – Rick Morgin
“If people are looking at your profile, that’s an indication that they’re interested in potentially who you are and what you do. And that’s the opportunity to start that conversation.” – Tim Hyde
