Youngest people. 42 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 5: It's not hard to do, it's hard to figure out 43 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 5: if you don't have any guidance. 44 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 6: Like obviously we've never I've never met anybody that owned 45 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 6: their own franchise, so like yeah, like oh, was like 46 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 6: what was the guidance? 47 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 2: Like what was the mental or the moment that you said, 48 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 2: this is what I have to do now? 49 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 5: So there, I was really frustrated. One day. I don't 50 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:55,079 Speaker 5: remember what was frustrating me, but I went to Barnes 51 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:59,639 Speaker 5: and Nobles and I googled the top five franchise consulting 52 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:03,920 Speaker 5: for firms and I called all five to see who 53 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 5: would call me back first, because at that point, I 54 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:10,960 Speaker 5: was like, I don't want to open multiple locations. 55 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:12,959 Speaker 4: Well can you talk about that? Even before so I 56 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 4: actually asked you that question. I'm like, what made you say, okay, 57 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 4: instead of opening I want to shop in Newark? I 58 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:19,919 Speaker 4: want to shop and broken, but it's gonna be What 59 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 4: made you want to just say I want to do 60 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 4: franchises and have other people? 61 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,360 Speaker 5: And I left this out. I did own another location 62 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 5: at that point, so I owned two locations and I 63 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 5: was working on three. But I was like, I don't 64 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:33,799 Speaker 5: I can't handle it on my own. 65 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 4: Why so why did you? 66 00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 5: Why did you tell you I wanted to maintain some 67 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 5: free time for my family, for my leisure, and for work. 68 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 5: So I didn't There's a lot of business owners who 69 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 5: just run around all day long to multiple locations and 70 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 5: then burn out at night. But I always wanted to 71 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 5: leave time for myself because I felt like that's important 72 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 5: and I didn't want the business to overrun me. So 73 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 5: I wanted to allow other people to open. And I 74 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 5: realized that in the United States you have to franchise 75 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 5: if you allow somebody else to use your logo and 76 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 5: your business name. 77 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 4: Can you talk about that? I just found that out, 78 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 4: So you can't. You can't let somebody else use it 79 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 4: unless it's a franchise. 80 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 5: And there's a lot of people who like license their method. 81 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:27,600 Speaker 5: There's there's stores, but you actually cannot. You're not supposed to, 82 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,359 Speaker 5: and if you get caught, it's a it's a big fine. 83 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:34,039 Speaker 5: You have to become a franchise if they are following 84 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:37,920 Speaker 5: your trademarks, logos and name. 85 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:41,039 Speaker 2: So your trademark is the Kika method. 86 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 5: Kika Stretch Studios, the Kika Method. Yeah, so I also franchise, 87 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 5: I mean franchise trademarked most of the trademarks myself. I 88 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 5: just sat in front of a computer for hours until 89 00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:58,479 Speaker 5: I figured it out and. 90 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 4: So so all right, so you looked at the consultant firms, right, 91 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 4: and what happened at that point? 92 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,479 Speaker 5: So the first one that called me back the guy 93 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:13,160 Speaker 5: Chris Connor out of Atlanta Franchise Marketing Systems, and he 94 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 5: pitched the whole concept of working with me, like I 95 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 5: think this could work. I'll be on a flight tomorrow 96 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 5: and I'm like, really, okay, mind you. He was the 97 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 5: only one that called me back. The other people called 98 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 5: me back like three days later. I'm like not. And 99 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:32,919 Speaker 5: so he came. He looked at my studio, he listened 100 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 5: to the whole model, and he's like, you could definitely 101 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 5: do this. He helped franchise Massage Envy and a lot 102 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 5: of other big franchises. So and his price was also 103 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:46,719 Speaker 5: like lower than all of the other franchise company fifteen 104 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:51,599 Speaker 5: thousand okay, yeah, most of them are twenty and up. 105 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 4: And what do you get put for that? Like, he 106 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:54,039 Speaker 4: sets it up. 107 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:57,479 Speaker 5: He sets up the whole franchise model, the FDD. 108 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 4: All right, So okay, so he came and then he's 109 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 4: the one that set it up for you. 110 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:05,720 Speaker 5: He's the one that pulled the resources out of me 111 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 5: the the procedures. I had the strategies and he helped draft. 112 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 2: The whole So okay that you said the FDD. What 113 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:15,840 Speaker 2: does that stand for? 114 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 5: A federal disclosure document? 115 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,160 Speaker 2: And that's what you have to do in order to yes, 116 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 2: to have. 117 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 4: To open up a franchise, you have to do the 118 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 4: first thing I do is an fd D, right disclosure document. 119 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 5: Yes, and you do that. 120 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:31,160 Speaker 4: You do that with the United States government. Yes, And 121 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 4: each state has its own. 122 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 5: The same FDD. But each state has its own laws 123 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:43,040 Speaker 5: as far as submission. So like New York, you have 124 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 5: to submit your FDD. It has to be approved by 125 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 5: the state each year before you can sell a franchise 126 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 5: New Jersey. I can just give you my fd D 127 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 5: and have you sign up on the spot. New York 128 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:56,720 Speaker 5: they have to approve it each year. 129 00:06:57,640 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 4: New York's always the worst and everything. 130 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:03,480 Speaker 5: Seems so all right. 131 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 4: So what's in the FDD. 132 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 5: So within the FDD, it's basically like the role book 133 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 5: for the franchise, like, this is what we're gonna do 134 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 5: for you. This is your role as a franchisee. This 135 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:17,239 Speaker 5: is my role. It basically puts on the table every 136 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 5: cost that you could incur with a business like this, 137 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 5: It discloses to the franchise e everything they would have 138 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 5: to deal with if they decided to join your organization, 139 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 5: every possible element of everything. 140 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 4: How long? Like how how long is it? 141 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 5: So mine is about three hundred pages? 142 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 4: Three hundred pages, yes, and that's what he helped you 143 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 4: write that? 144 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 5: Yes, so he has a team of people that helped 145 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 5: put it all together. 146 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 4: So how do you all right? So is it like 147 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 4: a set template to say like or like, how do 148 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,520 Speaker 4: you come up with three hundred pages of items? 149 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 6: Or was you using that that when you find yourself 150 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 6: you had so much writing already built up, like. 151 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 5: I did so within the FDD, so we do three 152 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:02,239 Speaker 5: weeks of training for each of the franchisees. So lists 153 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 5: how much time is spent on this topic in training, 154 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 5: like it spells out the whole training by minutes, thirty 155 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 5: minutes on this, thirty minutes on that. It shows you 156 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 5: the least possible amount of money you could use to 157 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 5: open in the highest so there's a range. It spells 158 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 5: out liability of the franchise or like what are we 159 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 5: liable for? What are we not liable for? So once 160 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 5: the franchise reads it, they understand what they're getting themselves into, 161 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 5: and once they sign it, you can't say I didn't 162 00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 5: tell you you know this is going to happen. 163 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 4: So that the FDD actually is the instruction manual. Yes, yeah, 164 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 4: you don't have like another one on top of that. 165 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 1: We do. 166 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 4: So what's the other one? You have to time, So 167 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:51,679 Speaker 4: there's a reason that. Now we know why you're the 168 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 4: youngest one. So what's what's all? Right? So we got 169 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 4: the FDD. That's pretty watch the whole instruction manual. So 170 00:08:58,800 --> 00:08:59,439 Speaker 4: what's on top of that? 171 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 5: So the right So legally it allows you to sell 172 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:06,439 Speaker 5: a business to someone. Right, So that's the FDD. Then 173 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:12,719 Speaker 5: there's an operations manual. So that's where all my strategies, concepts, 174 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 5: all of my material as far as like how to 175 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:20,840 Speaker 5: find staff, it's in the operations manual. So the operations 176 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 5: Manual is what teaches them what to do. So that's 177 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 5: a whole nother document which came hand in hand with 178 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 5: the FDD. 179 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:31,600 Speaker 3: And once they signed that document the FDD, they can't 180 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 3: deviate from that operational agreement. 181 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 4: No, So how many pages is the operation it's about 182 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 4: two hundred, so it's five together. Yes, it's like loaded 183 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 4: the rings so okay, so how long how long did 184 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:48,439 Speaker 4: it take you to put together all of that? 185 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 5: So, I mean they were prepared to put it together 186 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 5: within a month, but I needed more time, so it 187 00:09:58,000 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 5: took me about four months. 188 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,319 Speaker 4: So you did you actually write it yourself or you 189 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 4: just dictated it to them? 190 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:04,679 Speaker 5: Dictated it to them? 191 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:06,840 Speaker 4: So what you ever suggested, Mike can do it them. 192 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:10,319 Speaker 5: There's some things you don't want to do yourself. One 193 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:11,719 Speaker 5: of those things is messed. 194 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 4: With the law. So you really get a professional, get a. 195 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 5: Professional and do your research because a lot of people 196 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 5: rip people off just to create that document. So you 197 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 5: have to do your research so you know what you're 198 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 5: getting into. 199 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 4: All right. So now okay, so you have the FDD done, yes, 200 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 4: and then you got approved. It's take to get approved. 201 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 5: So like once it was done, I could sell in 202 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 5: many states. Like once it's done here, you go, Kiko, Okay, 203 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 5: you want to open in. 204 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 4: New Jersey, Great, but they have to approve it. 205 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 5: No, unless you go to a state like New York California. 206 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:49,319 Speaker 2: So you were in Montclair, Yeah, so if New Jersey. 207 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 5: Jersey imagery fortunately, right, So like to put one in 208 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 5: Brooklyn out yes? 209 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 2: Different? 210 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 4: Right? 211 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:56,679 Speaker 5: Requires the state to approve it. 212 00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:00,200 Speaker 4: All right, Okay, so you have the you have thed, 213 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 4: then you have the operational green. So nowI you're up 214 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 4: and running as far as you can. Now you can 215 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,719 Speaker 4: have people buy your franchise. Right, Well, that's only have 216 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 4: to battle because people have to actually buy your franchise. Yeah, 217 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 4: so what's the process for that? How did how did 218 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 4: you get the word out? How did you get people 219 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 4: interested in buying? 220 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:17,959 Speaker 2: Like? 221 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 4: How did that? How was the first the first person 222 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:21,439 Speaker 4: that brought a franchise? How did that? 223 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 2: So? 224 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 5: I had so I owned a studio in Westfield, Montclair, 225 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 5: in Westfield. So in Westfield, I had a manager that 226 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 5: was so amazing. She was she was doing better than 227 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 5: I could have. And when I when you see talent 228 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 5: like that on your staff, you have to do something 229 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 5: about it or else they'll leave, they'll find another job. 230 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 5: So I knew this position like she outgrew the position. 231 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,439 Speaker 5: So I talked to the company. I spoke to you 232 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 5: guys about and I was like, how do I open 233 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 5: up the first one? How do I find people? And 234 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 5: they talked about a pizzeria that sold their first one 235 00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:00,199 Speaker 5: to their manager. They let their manager in. It was 236 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 5: already up and running, it would be great to start 237 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:06,439 Speaker 5: with someone who knows the system. So I proposed that 238 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 5: offer to her and her husband, and she took it. 239 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 5: So actually she became the first franchisee. 240 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 6: We have a slight franchise e story, Like twelve years ago, 241 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 6: we tried to get into a franchise Coladstone, I said 242 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 6: in an earlier episode, but it was like, yo, we 243 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 6: needed five hundred thousand, and we're like in our twenties, 244 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 6: how are we going to do this?

No, So with your your 309 00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 4: body is different, right, Yeah, so before we've been talking, 310 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 4: you have a you have a sliding scale of the 311 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 4: price range, right, Yes, anywhere from thirty to ninety correct, 312 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 4: depending on geographic locations. 313 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 5: Exactly. 314 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 4: So obviously major markets is more, right in the small 315 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 4: market is less exactly because the major market is going 316 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 4: to do more business. 317 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, and the real estate is more major yep. 318 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 4: So all right, So but you also have an income 319 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 4: is it income based? 320 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 5: Income based financing? 321 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 4: Can we like to? 322 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 5: So can you explain that so that I'm coining? Someone 323 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 5: write it down that after this. So basically, like I 324 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 5: started with five hundred dollars, I had no networth, right, 325 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 5: so if if someone offered me something, they wouldn't and 326 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 5: it would prevent me from having the opportunity of what 327 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 5: I've done so far, So I kind of had that 328 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:53,200 Speaker 5: in my head, like, just because you have a million 329 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 5: dollars in assets doesn't mean you're a good business owner. 330 00:16:56,760 --> 00:17:00,240 Speaker 5: It really takes personality. This is a service business, so 331 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 5: you have to have a personality, you have to be 332 00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:06,359 Speaker 5: able to be likable. So there's a lot of different 333 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 5: things that would make you a good franchise besides assets. 334 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 5: So but assets over yeah, so you can't have too 335 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:19,680 Speaker 5: many liabilities to get in. But so basically it goes 336 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:23,920 Speaker 5: by person by person what but we look for, number one, 337 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:28,920 Speaker 5: people who are good with people, People who show a 338 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 5: healthy relationship with money. So even if you're making I 339 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:35,160 Speaker 5: don't know what, two thousand dollars a month, I'm exaggerating, 340 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:39,400 Speaker 5: but you're still saving for retirement five dollars a month. 341 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:42,440 Speaker 5: That shows that you're you're you handle money well. And 342 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:44,960 Speaker 5: that's the biggest thing that we look for, people who 343 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:48,680 Speaker 5: handle money well, because if it's five dollars versus a 344 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:51,879 Speaker 5: million dollars, it doesn't matter because you're you're going to 345 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 5: handle the business well. So we look at people's income, 346 00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:00,919 Speaker 5: what they currently do. Are they saying what does their 347 00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:04,119 Speaker 5: savings look like? How much can they put upfront towards 348 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 5: the franchise, what has been their work history, what their 349 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 5: passion is. We have a whole kind of checklist that 350 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 5: we go over and we process it and then we 351 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:17,120 Speaker 5: approve them based on that. So who we So it's 352 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 5: myself and I have a team of three other people 353 00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:22,359 Speaker 5: that help with the franchise company and. 354 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 4: Dan, you said, but you guys can assist with financing too, right, yes, 355 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:26,920 Speaker 4: so can you talk about that? 356 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:31,720 Speaker 5: So the franchise fee is thirty thousand dollars. However, say 357 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 5: you have twenty thousand, usually you would never be able 358 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 5: to own a franchise because you don't have enough money. 359 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:41,959 Speaker 5: So we might finance that other ten for you, depending 360 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:45,159 Speaker 5: on the situation over time. So the biggest thing is 361 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:47,440 Speaker 5: there's a pull of people who are being left out 362 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:51,159 Speaker 5: of this whole franchise concept due to financial reasons. So 363 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 5: we're making it easier for people who still have potential 364 00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 5: to get in. 365 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:59,000 Speaker 2: And so right now you have twelve franchises, right, yes, 366 00:18:59,160 --> 00:18:59,719 Speaker 2: eleven of them. 367 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 6: Yes, And you said that there's a certain demographic of 368 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 6: franchises that you're looking for. 369 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:10,440 Speaker 2: Why millennials? What makes them the target audience here? 370 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 5: It's another loaded question why millennials. Well, so millennials have 371 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:20,400 Speaker 5: been told by their baby booming parents, get a good job, 372 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:24,680 Speaker 5: work there your whole life, save for retirement, and that's it. 373 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 5: You're a good person. However, we know that's not the 374 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:33,200 Speaker 5: case nowadays most people. Most people. That's why you see, 375 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:38,680 Speaker 5: speaking of Mickeyde's right, you see fifty year old, sixty 376 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 5: year olds working there because they don't have enough money 377 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:44,680 Speaker 5: to live off of their retirement plan did not carry 378 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:48,000 Speaker 5: them through. So we have these millennials who are getting 379 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:53,359 Speaker 5: frustrated within their jobs. They've reached a glass ceiling and 380 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 5: they're looking for opportunities, but nothing is there because they're 381 00:19:56,640 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 5: solely relying on their boss supervisor to give them a raise. 382 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:04,440 Speaker 5: So what we've started doing is pitching for them to 383 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:08,960 Speaker 5: give themselves a raise through franchising. And it's just a 384 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:11,120 Speaker 5: pool of people that are looking for a way out, 385 00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:13,400 Speaker 5: and we've realized these are the people that we want, 386 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 5: and we're going to help guide them and show them how. 387 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:16,040 Speaker 2: To do it. 388 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 4: One of the good things about franchise is that it 389 00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:22,800 Speaker 4: allows you to So somebody said, we had a guest 390 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,399 Speaker 4: and he said, Chris Senegal. He said that in school, 391 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:30,639 Speaker 4: they teach you not to cheat, but in business you 392 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 4: get rewarded for cheating. Not cheating people, but like cheating 393 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:35,920 Speaker 4: as far as you see what somebody else has done 394 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:38,720 Speaker 4: and you copy that, right, like I should use that 395 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 4: word copy. You get rewarded for copying. Right, You copy 396 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 4: somebody's paper in glass and you can keep that at school. 397 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:49,240 Speaker 4: You copy a business and you become a millionaire. So 398 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 4: that's what it does, is it saves the learning curve. 399 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 4: And like you said, I mean percent of businesses failed. 400 00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 4: So if you already have a successful business your eyes, 401 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 4: being successful is a lot higher than just starting out 402 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 4: from scratch, right, And as you said, I mean you 403 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 4: have five hundred pages of a system that's already in 404 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,440 Speaker 4: place as opposed to just trying to wing it and 405 00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 4: start yourself. And it could be very lucrative too, because 406 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:17,200 Speaker 4: you were saying, like some of the locations like well 407 00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 4: over six figures. Yes, so yeah, so those are all 408 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:28,119 Speaker 4: the pros I did a commercial for you. So all right, 409 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 4: so what's the revenue model? Like as far as how 410 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:33,640 Speaker 4: do how do you make money off of the franchise? 411 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:38,200 Speaker 5: Right, So we collect the franchise fees upfront or through 412 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:43,320 Speaker 5: our income based financing program and then we collect royalties 413 00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 5: each month six percent royalties off of their gross income. 414 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 5: So the benefit of doing a percentage is that if 415 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 5: they it encourages us to make sure they're making money, 416 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 5: because if they don't make money, our six percent is 417 00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 5: very small. If they're being very lucrative and successful, our 418 00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 5: six percent is much larger. So we're constantly coaching them 419 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:08,360 Speaker 5: and helping them make more. What I like to tell 420 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:12,159 Speaker 5: my franchises is that they'll always make more money than me. 421 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:15,480 Speaker 5: So it puts them in the mindset of, oh, you're right, 422 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 5: this is my thing. And one thing I wanted to 423 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 5: say is we look for people who have currently been 424 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:25,400 Speaker 5: working for other companies as employees and putting their all 425 00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:29,439 Speaker 5: into their job, not but not getting anywhere. So it's 426 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:32,400 Speaker 5: a mindset switch. This is the hardest thing to get 427 00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 5: them to understand. If you work just as hard for yourself, 428 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 5: you'll make money. 429 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 6: It's like what you said, like their success is your 430 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 6: success exactly. 431 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,879 Speaker 2: I mean, so, how long is the agreement? How long 432 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 2: does that last? 433 00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 5: It lasts for ten years year period? 434 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:52,960 Speaker 4: Yes? Okay, okay, so all right, So okay, I want 435 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:55,400 Speaker 4: to open a franchise. I meet with you, I get approved. 436 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:57,879 Speaker 4: It costs thirty thousand. Let's say I give you thirty thousand, 437 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:02,199 Speaker 4: and then I you get some help too though, right, 438 00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:05,120 Speaker 4: like what's the what after that? You said you provide 439 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 4: training and what else do you provide? 440 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 5: So that includes three weeks of initial training, ten years 441 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:18,159 Speaker 5: of support, and from Monday through Friday, constant support. 442 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:20,640 Speaker 4: What is the support like website support. 443 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 5: Website support, publicity. We provide graphics for the franchises to use. 444 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,880 Speaker 5: We provide it like basically every tool you can think 445 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:32,640 Speaker 5: of with the SEO for their location. 446 00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 2: So they're not going to stables like you did. 447 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 5: They're not going to staples. They're much more sophisticated than 448 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:39,119 Speaker 5: I ever was. 449 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:42,640 Speaker 4: Right. And then as your brand grows, obviously to brand recognition. 450 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 4: That's the recogniz that's another plus of being a franchise 451 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,359 Speaker 4: on it. So okay, so now I pay the thirty thousand, 452 00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:50,200 Speaker 4: I get the shop. I'm making ten thousand a month. 453 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:53,640 Speaker 4: I give you six hundred. I keep ninety four hundred. 454 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 5: And that's finances, yes, okay, all right? 455 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:00,680 Speaker 4: And then for the people that are finance, so the 456 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:02,879 Speaker 4: people that don't have all the money upfront that you 457 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:06,200 Speaker 4: finance or your company finances, how do they pay you 458 00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:06,920 Speaker 4: back over there? 459 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:10,800 Speaker 5: So we work out an agreement twenty four months, thirty 460 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:14,399 Speaker 5: two months, it depends of whatever. The balance is broken 461 00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:17,359 Speaker 5: up over time, so they would pay that balance and 462 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:19,120 Speaker 5: then they would pay the six percent. 463 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 4: Of course, got to do that. 464 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 5: It depends on the situation. So that was a good 465 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,480 Speaker 5: question email to find out. 466 00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:36,639 Speaker 4: One thing. One thing I always wondered about having like 467 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,639 Speaker 4: a franchise, like even like a McDonald's who has millions 468 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:41,800 Speaker 4: of franchises all over the world, how do you know 469 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:46,000 Speaker 4: if somebody's like deviating from like you're sending spies in 470 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 4: there to like check more people, Like, how do you 471 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:49,560 Speaker 4: know you might have? 472 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 5: Really we send out secret shoppers. We actually just did 473 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:59,880 Speaker 5: that to two studios and they were there was surprise. 474 00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 5: And also with social media nowadays, you can like we 475 00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:07,639 Speaker 5: spot stuff sometimes like bro, why are they wearing a 476 00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 5: pink shirt when they're supposed to wear a black shirt? 477 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 5: You know, things like that, But we focus it's like 478 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:15,680 Speaker 5: its own little department. 479 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:18,240 Speaker 4: We focus on that just making sure that Yeah, so 480 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,119 Speaker 4: all right, so what's the process is Like, okay, you 481 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 4: have like you mess up too many times and you're 482 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 4: done yes, that's also in the FDD Okay we strikes 483 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 4: you out. Yeah, it's basically three st yeah okay, and 484 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 4: then so you strip them up using the name and 485 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 4: all that you can. Yes, it's important people to know 486 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 4: because it's like, like I said on men, I don't 487 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:41,119 Speaker 4: know this stuff. So it's like if you want to 488 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:44,720 Speaker 4: start a franchise, it's good information, Like you know, Yeah, 489 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:47,000 Speaker 4: you gotta know everything that you need to know before 490 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 4: you go into business because you got to expect every 491 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:51,840 Speaker 4: possible case scenario what could possibly happen. 492 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:53,960 Speaker 5: You have to be the type of person that is 493 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 5: okay with running with something that already exists. Right, you 494 00:25:57,840 --> 00:25:59,960 Speaker 5: can make it your own because there's a lot of 495 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:03,239 Speaker 5: log room. You can choose who you hire, you can 496 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 5: choose business perks that you would give your clients, but 497 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:11,719 Speaker 5: you have to be willing to follow an existing model. 498 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 5: So if you're the type of person to take something 499 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:17,120 Speaker 5: and just completely rip it apart because you just want 500 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:20,000 Speaker 5: to do your own thing, then franchising is not for you. 501 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 4: So would you consider a franchise owner as an entrepreneur 502 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:26,440 Speaker 4: or a manager? 503 00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:33,359 Speaker 5: Good question both, because that's essentially what we're doing. What 504 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:37,000 Speaker 5: I do manage the locations on a higher level to 505 00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 5: ensure that they're following our systems.
