Leo Wisniewski

• Leo talks about "Assessing Franchise Profitability".
• Most common question of franchise owners is - "Is this franchise business profitable?"
• The franchising world is regulated by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
• An important document that all franchise owners must read is the Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD)
• The FDD has 23 sections in total but the key section is Item 19 called the Earnings Claim item.
• Currently only about 20% of franchise companies have an Item 19 in their FDD.
• According to the FTC, a franchise parent company can only talk about earnings if there is a Item 19 of their FDD. This is why most franchise companies don't talk about earning to prospective owners.
• Since earning are such an important topic to a potential owner, how do you get earning information? The FTC allows existing franchise owners to talk about ANYTHING to a new potential owner.
• Questions you may consider asking individual franchise owners include:

1. Where does most of your revenue come from? - Revenue Model
2. What are the expense items that cover 80%-90% of your expenses? - real estate, personnel, marketing, etc.

Leo Wisniewski

• Leo talks about the "Steps in Executing a Marketing Tactic".
• Insider secret - start early with your planning. Use time and the economy to your advantage. Look at different options you might want to use to execute the marketing tactic. If you start early, you will get more time to negotiate, get a better price and still start in on time. Start at least 2-3 months in advance.
• Leo's checklist when executing a marketing tactic:

1. What is the title of the program?
2. What is the objective? - reward existing customers, acquire new customers
3. What is the offer?
4. When will it start? - cash flow perspective, make sure you have it in your budget
5. When is it operational?
6. Pick an end date
7. What zones are you going to pitch?
8. What is the cost?
9. How do you measure success?
10. How, when and what are you going to communicate to your staff?
11. Pick a vendor
12. Get a cost estimate in writing

• The Corporate Veil are general rules regarding Corporation or LLC (Limited Liability Company) considering an entity separate from its owner so there is not personal liability
• Some instances court will state owner = alter ego of Corp. and pierce the veil and go after personal assets in order to avoid fraud, injustice or inequitable consequences
• It does not need to be an individual owner as far a piercing the corporate veil. It can be someone exercising sufficient control over the company, a parent company, a husband of a 100% shareholder of a company and more recently an unaffiliated company that had the ability to control another company.
• Courts pierce the corporate veil as an equitable remedy or to remedy an injustice.
  There used to be only 3 or 4 factors for piercing the corporate veil but more recently, courts have looked at up to 11 different factors.
• Examples of factors that courts take a look at are inadequate capitalization, corporate formalities, absence of corporate records, non functioning officers or directors, commingling of funds, diversion of assets to detriment of creditors

Leo Wisniewski

• This week Leo talks about the importance of "Focus" for your business.
• One of the first issues encountered when Leo helps others when they are starting franchise business is they work hard but are spread in different directions and overall not making progress.
• One insider secret is to focus just on what produces more progress than working into different directions at the same time. This is usually just 2-3 items at most.
• Most businessmen are involved in running the business on a day to day basis but are not focusing on the big picture and you sometimes need somebody from the outside to help you focus.
• Recommended reading "The E-Myth" by Michael Gerber
• Most owners get stuck in the details and end up working in their business versus on it which should be the role of business ownership.
• A lot of owners do not know the power of focusing on key priorities and are not aware on the very simple mechanics on how to focus.
• Step 1 is to make a random list of all projects you are working on and all regular tasks.
• Studies show that top 3% of goal setters earn more on average, 10 times more in the same period than those that had no written goals.
• Step 2 is to add the time frame column, revenue impact column, and expense impact column and rank it using 1-3 with one as the highest, two as the middle, 3 as the highest.
• Step 3 is to sort these items based on timeframe, revenue and expense impact. Magically to the top will pop up the items in your business that will have the most impact in the quickest amount of time.

• Talking about the article from Wall Street Journal last Oct. 7, 2009 titled "Americans Slow to Cut Spending on Kids"
• Families are increasing spending on kids
• Survey shows an increase of spending on kids goods from 2007-2008 even in the current tough economy
• People still continue to spend on the "big three" areas namely Pets, Kids, and Baby Boomer Services
• Recommended readings - "The Millionaire Next Door" and "Stop Acting Rich" by Thomas Stanley
• "Only 27% of people who live in million dollar homes are millionaires" - quote from book, "Stop Acting Rich" by Thomas Stanley. So most people that live in expensive homes are way over their income.

• Talks about the article titled "It Will Be Years Before Lost Jobs Return -- and Many Never Will"
• US has shed 7-8 million jobs since the recession December of 2007.
• The economy has to generate 100,000 jobs per month to keep up with population growth. This is equal to 1.2 million jobs per year.
• If economy would be able to generate at least 2.15 million jobs a year, best case scenario unemployment will be back to 5% until 2017
• IHS global insight predicted that it would take until 2019 until we get back to the 5.75% unemployment rate
• When the economy comes back it will be dramatically different than it was before.

No matter what direction you go - business ownership, career advancement or financial investing - the real path to fulfilment is not about money - it's about the lifestyle.
• Focus - what you focus on in your life will become bigger. If you focus on abundance then you will get abundance back from life. If you focus on giving life will give back to you. That's why any associated with Livin' The Dream first focuses on giving.

Leo Wisniewski

• Leo proposes that risk is just a myth - a made up concept based on another false assumption that security is possible.
• Based on the thousands of folks that have been layed off, its now clear that security does not exist - especially in the corporate career direction.
• Instead of thinking about risk / security - think about outcomes. For each outcome determine the probability of each outcome and write down the implications of each outcome.
• When following this approach most people are surprised that what concerns them most are typically the outcomes with the lowest probability and/or where the implications are not that bad.

• Great topic today - growing even when your friends and family are not growing at the same pace.
• I call this "Crabs in the Basket" - listen to the archive to hear the store about how crabs act when they are all tossed in a basket.
• Moving ahead of your friends to take control of your life can be hard and even scary.
• Remember that your friends are trying to help you - they are well intended. That is not the issue - they are trying to help. The disconnect is that you are getting more information and they are still using their old assumptions about how things work. Check out this archive for the difference betweek facts and assumptions - this is a key insider secret.

• Glad to be back from vacation in Mexico for spring break! As usual it was 85F and sunny every day - my ONLY requirement for a great vacation!
• I also got a chance to do a lot of reading. This time I brought a stack of books on marketing. I am soaking up more great information for helping my consulting clients get their business on track.
• Today's topic - putting your best foot forward - selling yourself.
• How do you put your best foot forward and sell yourself? Confidence!
• How to you get confidence that lasts? Start by being good at what you do and truly add value to your customers - if you can do this then getting referrals and more business will not be a problem!
• Position yourself as an expert - build a track record of success. Keep a long term perspective on how to build this track record. Focus first on building a track record BEFORE you try to earn lots of money. I did this with my consulting business.
• Once you have a track record, get testimonials. If you have added value then getting a testimonial will be easy.
• Second Insider Secret - if you are having problems selling your services - its NOT THE PRICE! The problem is you need to help clients see your VALUE. Once they see your value, they will be willing to pay whatever price to get the value.

• Good ideas that are never implemented are just a dream
• The key to getting your whole organization on the same page is alignment and that all beging with goals - if you don't have a goal then you can't measure your success.
• Get your goals written down and make them SMART = Specific & Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and Time-driven.
• Start with setting your long term goals - maybe goals 3 to 5 years from now. Then break these down to annual, monthly and then weekly goals.
• In measuring your goals you want to set up Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) - they key performance measures you want track.
• The challenge in creating KPIs is to measure the DRIVERS of your business and not just the results. For example, measuring things like average invoice or customer mix will help you get better visibility into why your sales numbers are not where you want them to be.
• This is the kind of assistance I provide to business owners all day. For more information about my services, check out my Consulting Page.

• Taking your business to the next level - using technology.
• Send Out Cards - One of my absolute favorite technologies is Send Out Cards!
• Send Out Cards (SOC) gives you the ability to send out real greeting cards right from your computer. You pick the card, add your own personal message and SOC does the rest.
• This is NOT an email greeting card - its a high quality greeting card delivered by the US Post Office. The envelope even has a real stamp on the envelope.
• Pictures - You can include your own pictures or logo. You can even add your own handwriting and signature!
• Convenient - you no longer have to run to the store when you need a card. No longer worry about running out of stamps or have to keep up with the latest postage rates.
• Fast - You can send out a card in under 2 minutes.
• Gifts - don't have time to run out for a gift? You can even include a gift, books, gift cards, cookies etc automatically with your card!
• Inexpensive - You can send out a card for under $1.50 - including postage!
• Reminders - Never forget a birthday or anniversary again. SOC will send you an email reminder about a week before the important date.
• Wide Selection - SOC has a selection of over 14,000 cards and always growing! A typical card store might have only 1,200 cards.
• Contact Management - No need to retype your contacts since you can import all of your existing contacts from an Excel file. You can even organize contacts into groups.
• Campaigns - If you want to send a personalized card to a group of people, create your own campaign. You can personalize each card with the recipient's name, etc. Think how easy it will be to send out holiday cards!
• Income Potential - You can even earn an income by getting friends involved with SOC. Is very easy to earn enough from Send Out Cards to make sending out your cards free.
• Free Cards! - If you want to send your own free card - click on the following link -
  send a FREE card yourself today!

• Validation Guidebook - Hot off the presses is my new Validation Guidebook! If you are looking at ways to identify your target market, check out my new Validation Guidebook. This Guidebook has been in development for over 6 years - leveraging the research and experience I have gained in working with hundreds of clients.
• In a franchise, its very easy to identify your target market because the franchisor has already done all of the work. Best of all, you can get access to this information as you are researching the business!
• The key is to know how to analyze the information - that how I can help.

• I can't wait to go biking in the middle of the day. Its going to be a GREAT break. Its 59 F outside - got to take advantage of it!
• I really planned to talk about Building Strategic Relationships. Instead I got diverted talking about the stimulus package and commented on my recent blog entry about this same topic - check out blog entry.
• I really want to have the economy turn around quickly. A lot of people are having a hard time right now. However, leaving a debt of almost $900 billion will make things difficult for the next generations. The key is to make sure that we are helping the economy in the most effective and efficient way possible.
• To put our current troubles into perspective, I also mentioned about previous recessions. The longest recession since WWII has been 18 months. This recession started 12/2007. Therefore, we are in about month 13 of this recession. Is it possible that this recession would naturally correct itself in the next 5 months or so?

• I am very passionate about today's topic!
• A number of folks I talk with are looking to get into a business to make money. Either to make a lot of money or to replace the income they have lost since being let go from their job.
• That's a great start. However, the truly FULFILLED entrepreneur's understand that the business is not the end game. These truly happy entrepreneur's have learned that a business is just a vehicle to achieving something bigger - the lifestyle of their dream. That's why our radio show is called Livin' The Dream!
• Unfortunately, a number of adults have given up on ever achieving the lifestyle they dreamed about when they were young.
• Well - we are here to tell you that it IS possible to live the life of your dreams! It takes a lot of focus and discipline to achieve. However, it IS possible!
• So how do you achieve this lifestyle? This is what I do all day with clients - teach them HOW to achieve their dream lifestyle.
• One of the misunderstood ideas about business ownership is passion. You need passion to keep you focus on your business. However, what gets misunderstood (mostly due to magazines that continue this myth) is that is NOT about providing a service / product you are passionate about. Its about being passionate about getting your business profitable and working so well that you will be able to live the life of your dreams! You will have financial security and control of your future because you have created a stable "money machine"!

• While I am VERY excited to have Barak Obama as our new president, we all need to understand the the federal government can only do so much.
• Most of our economy is a consumer economy - 70% our GDP comes from consumer and not business and not government spending.
• A lot has been made about government bailout aid to large corporations. Keep in mind this is only a very small part of the businesses in our economy. Only 4% of the companies in the US have more then 99 employees.

• Get known in the community through Personal Branding.
• Personal Branding is about getting yourself known in a unique way to your audience.
• You can do this by 1) positioning yourself as an expert or 2) creating a unique / creative identity (such as Mike - the "Tolietpaper Entrepreneur!)
• All you need to do to start getting known as an expert is start writing your own blog, contributing to existing blogs - such as this blog!. You can even start writing articles for local newspapers.

Leo Wisniewski

• What are the "Big Rocks" you need to focus on for success in 2009?
• Leo says that 80% of the key to achieving your goals is setting up a measurement system to review progress towards your goals.
• Measurement is even more important then even setting your goals. When you do set goals - make sure that your goals are based on lifestyle goals - not just financial! Remember WHY you have your business. Yes its to make money but what do you want to do with that money - its your target lifestyle!
• Set up a regular measurement system.
• Start with annual goals - where do you want to be by then end of the year. Break these down to quarterly goals, then monthly and maybe even weekly goals. The review your actuals against each of these. Look not only at how you are doing against your goals but also how much progress you have made since your last review. If you are not making the progress you want - adjust!
• In addition, Leo block's out time on his calendar each week. Items to be done at that time are collected in a paper folder. If an idea comes up, it goes in the folder. When the time comes, the folder is opened, the items in the folder are prioritized and Leo works thru them each week. This discipline is the key to making progress!
