OTCF 004 : The Danger Of The Unethical Franchisee With Nathan Siekierski From Jasper’s Franchise

In this episode of the Off The Cuff Franchising Podcast, I have a frank conversation with Nathan Siekierski of Jasper’s Franchise about unethical franchisees, the role of lawyers and the “misunderestimation” of the franchise agreement (you’ll see what I mean when you listen to the episode).

Nathan was extremely generous and courageous in sharing his thoughts about a controversial area of franchising that is usually not talked about. So if any of the things shared strike a chord (or ruffle your feathers), please feel  to share your thoughts in the comments below, or on LinkedIn or on iTunes. Let’s see if we can’t work this thing out between us!

OTCF 003 : Are You Using These 3 Keys To Work On Your Business Or In Your Business? A Chat With Ian Christelow From ActionCOACH

In this episode of the Off The Cuff Franchising Podcast, I talk to Ian Christelow about the 3 critical components that help you to work on your business instead of just in your business. One of the highlights of this episode is where Ian tells the story of how he sold everything he had to bring the ActionCOACH franchise to the UK, and even convinces his brother to risk his finances in joining him in this venture. But then later Ian shares the story of a critical business decision he made when the business only had a few months of capital left…and it’s a decision that not even his brother knows about to this day.
