Franchise Opportunity; Here's The Poop On ANOTHER Poop Removal Service

                                                                                                                    

 

A franchise development company has done it again, folks. They have cashed a check from another Pooper-Scooper.....

Hounds Mounds is the newest in a long line of franchise companies capitalizing on the obvious need to pay others to clean up their dog's poop. Is our planet going to the dogs? Is anyone actually buying these franchises? if you know someone who has actually invested in a poop-pick-up franchise, and can take time away from picking up P_ _ P, please have them contact me, so I may interview them.

{The Franchise King would graciously come off his own throne to ask some pertinent poop questions}   

And now, for the rest of the dirt..er..poop on Mounds Hounds, Hounds Mounds-whateva, go here...

A Golf Franchise For Toddlers; You've Got To Be Kidding!

Two of the three principals of franchise law firm Wee, Seeyou, and Coming.

Ok. Time for a little franchise op-ed....

I am not sure who the franchise development company was for this niche franchise concept, or if it was just an attorney from the prestigious law firm of We, Seeyou, and Coming, but cmon!

Someone actually put together a franchise package based on golf for toddlers?

Meal Prep Franchises Are Choking

                            

As I predicted, the franchise business model of meal assembly is a bust. The lousy economy is certainly not a boost to this business model that was thought out without the input of people that actually are in the franchise business.

This is also a prime example of why people who want to invest in a franchise, but have never purchased one, shouldn't try to figure this all out on their own.

The Daily Franchise News Going Under

                         

The Daily Franchise News has gone underground to get the scoop on a franchise that I of course knew about, but didn't have the courage to report on. Sometimes, the lack of intelligence in some of the inventors of certain franchise concept's astounds me to the point of utter paralysis. In the case, morbid paralysis. I almost did a short post on this franchise a couple of  weeks ago, but as I said, just didn't have the courage.

Halloween is my favorite holiday, and Alexis Mattera, a hilarious gal who writes at The Daily Franchise News, has scooped me for the 1st time ever, so in the Halloween spirit {Get it..spirit...hehehe} I am refraining from putting a hex on her and the entire staff over at Sanderson PR for doing this.

Here is the story. Scary Stuff...

Payday Loan Franchise Companies Are Mad At This Franchise Blogger!

A small part of the franchise industry is mad at me.

I wrote a short article about an upcoming Ohio vote in November that would keep the interest rate cap for payday loans at a really fair 28%. Our Governor stepped in a few months back, and stopped the crazy practice of these nice franchise companies charging 391% APR on payday loans.

I am no mathematician, but I think 391% IS higher than 28%. Every day.

Here is the article, and some rather colorful comments for your reading pleasure. Please feel free to add some more color.

Anyone need a loan???

If you do this, you won't miss anything!
