Franchise And the apocalypse…

Franchise And the apocalypse…

Questionable economic times put me in mind of apocalyptic novels. My favorites, Alas, Babylon and Lucifer’s Hammer make the big point that it’s people with control of their own small business – can you say franchise – who have the best chance of survival.

Because having control of your own small team of well-trained, hard-working people who you’ve chosen to help run your franchise is a big step up.

Franchise and The Big Comet…
Say the big comet hits unexpectedly, and you and your franchise team are working a typical day. You’ve got a pool of people already practiced at working together, with a variety of skills, AND a supply of coffee, which will make you king in a post-apocalyptic environment.

Franchise and Pandemic…
Stephen King’s The Stand, right? Millions fall, but you and your franchise team are running a yacht service out of the Gulf of Mexico – you’ve got fishing gear and strong people; you’ve got a better chance than most.

Franchise and Nuclear Destruction….
Basically, no more electricity for awhile, Alas, Babylon, but with your barbeque franchise, you’ve got the tools to cook with fire, and you’ve got your franchise team of employees who are accustomed to hard work and irritable, hungry people.

Franchise and the e-bomb thingie
Nothing electrical at all, but with your furniture repair business you’ve got building skills and your franchise team of craftsmen – you’re golden!
