Why customized training is so important “The most useful training is the training that is customized to the franchisee. One-size-fits-all only creates mediocrity,” according to Monet. She suggests taking a closer look at the franchisee, measuring areas where they are strong and exploiting the areas where they are weak to customize training in such a[…]
What’s the Question?
I know you, better than you know yourself. Underneath that tough exterior, and ever so slightly puffed up ego – there lies a tender underbelly. But no one has seen it. Not the guys on the basketball court who just like you cover their tender underbellies with full throttle chest slams, butt slaps, towel pops and fist pumps.
Not your employees who see you as some kind of wizard who makes things happen from sheer genius and willpower. Not your children in whose eyes you are a combination of super hero and ATM machine. Not even your devoted wife. “What?! But she’s seen me naked” you exclaim. No, she’s clueless too.
How do I know? Because she’s sound asleep and quietly snoring while you’re wide awake asking yourself the same question again and again: do I have what it takes?
This is an excerpt from Rebecca Monet’s article The One Question Everyone is Asking in Franchising USA Magazine. […]
The Donkey and the Grasshoppers, revised and retold by Rebecca Monet
A Donkey having heard some Grasshoppers chirping and singing was highly enchanted. Desiring to possess the same charms of melody, he asked, “Grasshoppers what is it that makes you sing so beautifully? Is there a special food that you eat?” “Yes,” replied the Grasshoppers, “we will tell you a secret. We drink only the dew found on flowers and leaves.” The Donkey was so eager to have a beautiful voice that he ate and drank only dew, and in a short time died of hunger.

Screw Henry Ford! We are no longer in the industrial age. Who wants to be yet another cog in the wheel?
Henry, as you know, popularized the assembly line and mass production idea. Sure, he put a lot of cars on the road and in turn got rich.
But this is the 21st century. It’s time to think plug n’ play instead of cookie cutter.
I’m not anti-assembly line but I am anti-minion, especially in business ownership. Isn’t that why you want to go into business to start with – to have more control, to have an opinion, to be unique and to express yourself?!
This is an excerpt of Rebecca Monet’s most recent article on Franchise Expo discussing the difference between a plug and play franchise and cookie cutter franchise.
