Love of a franchise idea is not enough.
You may love the idea of indoor potted plants but think of how many humans in your town would love the idea and be willing to pay much money to get some which need periodic responsible care with watering, fertilizing, and proper lighting to survive. Buy or start a franchise with a proven track record of success as a viable business.
Never settle for low profit margins.
Double digit profitability returns are desirable but don’t go to the other extreme and expect 30% or greater profit margins.
Try to appeal to the affluent middle class.
The relatively poor patronize severely discounted products and services and you don’t want a franchise sensitive to economic downturns. Don’t try to compete with Amazon, Walmart, or fast food franchises who have the advantage of buying wholesale.
Your franchise should have growth potential both internally and region wise.
Your franchise should have relevance to more than just your immediate territory and be able to expand nationally and even internationally and an ability to expand or grow internally with new periodic offerings.
Owning your own commercial property is ideal.
Leasing can become expensive if it is not a very small property and can severely affect your profitability. Own your own commercial property if possible but don’t lose sight of the importance of the location of it.
Provide a unique experience for your customers.
If the experience is not unique and memorable it is just a commodity which will not be greatly prized by your customers and you will have plenty of local competitors.
An effective internet presence is mandatory.
TV and mail advertisements for small businesses are a thing of the past and an effective internet presence is vital so you will have to find a knowledgeable software expert to set up your website so it can be easily found by your customers and potential customers.
Your franchise will be a small business so be aware of these 11 basic drawbacks which have to be overcome.

Slogan: n. a short and memorable communication frequently used in advertising
A catchy phrase or slogan which goes viral is an advertisers dream but relatively few are memorable and truly unique enough to become overnight successes.
Even good slogans sometimes lose their initial impact once they are repeated too often but some have longevity such as “the ultimate driving machine”.

THE DIFFICULTY OF BECOMING A NEW INFLUENCER ON THE INTERNET WITH A GOOD GOAL(S)!!!
Start from scratch with little or no money and a great idea(s) and the chances that you will succeed in promoting your passion(s) in life successfully are highly unlikely.
First of all a powerful successful organization has monetary rewards to give all those who work in promoting their agenda,
they have prestigious humans or influencers on their staff or who act as affiliates which further their credibility,
they can run a membership campaign soliciting new members to their cause or causes,
they can have an advertising wing which promotes their goal(s) and certifies other members who agree to propagandize also on their behalf for a fee if necessary,
they can get priority placement on search engines,
they can sell brand related goods such as mugs, t-shirts, sport apparel, cosmetics, jewelry, etc. which disseminates their brand recognition worldwide,
They can tempt you with overblown promises of possible prizes, big,money or give coupons and free or discounted offers,
they can host house parties, media tours, listening tours, music concerts, political gatherings, sports competitions, parades, host or participate in charities with much public appeal and participate in conventions and fairs,
In effect, wherever there is mass public appeal they can host it or become participants in the public activity and promote their brand(s) or cause(s).
In effect with money and the right organizational structure backed by influencers and even celebrities you can have a powerful impact via the internet and grow and flourish as an organization.
All the above are possible with money and influence and without money or influence to start off with the odds are greatly to your disadvantage.

Humans like to share their emotions, information, some products, and some services. The internet is potentially the best source for freely sharing information but unfortunately what is being shared is digitalized artwork, pictures, music, movies and other video products which is creative work that contributing humans would like to get paid for and maybe make a little profit.
How do you make a profit if what you create is sold only once and potentially shared by the world? Why tax or charge for every sharing transaction of a bought piece of information worldwide!
What this means is that you can recommend or share for free via a sample digital snippet of music, movie, or article but if you want the complete work or information or product then you have to order or pay for it from the individual provider. Yes, the provider or seller may be a monopoly distributor but this permits them to censor your intellectual property and keep it at the bottom of the barrel and put no effort towards advertising it to the public.
Whoever was interested in your complete personal product would have to buy only from you directly and this would ensure that you would justly be paid for the mass appeal that your information or product would have.
In effect every creative person would have a cash register in their home and would charge the going price to whomever was interested and knocked on their doorstep. Yes, mass advertisers or distributors could still work out business deals with you promoting your creative efforts for a percentage of your profits but you would be guaranteed that you know exactly how much you sold and the advertiser, promoter, or distributor would not be able to scam you secretly and steal from you.
Effectively your website or cellphone would have a SHARED compartment and a BOUGHT compartment which you could not share with anyone but yourself or only on your personal device. Your personal device could be shared physically with family members and friends with physical access to your personal device.
That physical personal device could potentially be used by thousands of humans whom you decided to share with but that would take a considerable amount of time and it would not be instant access to the world via the internet!
This system would require considerable cooperation worldwide and require massive hardware and software changes but it is potentially doable and it is about the only just internet system which can be devised by humans.
This would also ensure some degree of privacy and you would not have to share your purchases with the world.

Advertise: v. to promote a subset(s) to the public for sales and/or attendance
Advertising promotes information and/or goods and/or services but if it is repeated and watched enough then it can be considered a form of brainwashing which is information and images stored in your sub consciousness and it frequently impulsively appears in your consciousness during impulsive buying or an activity(s) and/or thinking about buying or doing something.
To achieve brand identification or popularity some companies spend millions of dollars on advertising but satisfied customers promoting a brand by word of mouth or in social media is what retailers, manufacturers, and promoters crave.
Successful advertising succeeds in appealing to human basic desires for health, wealth, attractiveness, popularity, status, and pleasure or entertainment. Sometimes advertising manipulates human fear to sell or promote something which can even be a behavior and/or idea.
Testimonials by celebrities or prominent relatively trustworthy individuals are frequently successful in selling something, especially if we admire and respect them.

Propaganda: n. the propagation of dogma with claims of truth but in fact the dogma frequently has some or many lies and/or deceptions
When you advertise dogma then you are in fact propagandizing and much political and religious dogma has some or even many lies and deceptions.
In Nazi Germany the Aryan race was advertised as being superior to other races and made the Germans and other Aryans feel superior to others and so many were willing to make unreasonable sacrifices for their nations. White supremacy or white supremacists are an outgrowth of this propaganda which tries to entice white humans into thinking that they are in some way superior to others, can put down other non-white humans, and are therefore deserving of the better things in life.
The real truth is that there are many individual superior or talented humans in every race and superiority should not be thought of as a group characteristic common to all members of the group.
Some forms of propaganda are called the big lie which means that if you repeat a tempting lie publicly frequently enough then many humans will begin to believe it is true.
Today propaganda is much more prevalent in advertisements of products which untruthfully claim to make you beautiful, healthy, lose weight, and give you sex appeal.
BS can be thought of as a form of personal propaganda which many gullible humans fall for but it is really common lies and deceptions which are not advertised publicly.
Politicians and advertisers are not the only ones who can be blamed for propaganda but you too are engaging in your own personal form of propaganda if you lie or are being deceptive in the same way to more than one human. The important difference is that you can sometimes get away with public propaganda but if you try your own personal propaganda and are caught then your reputation is destroyed and humans will start to avoid you as much as possible and you will be ostracized from their circle of friends.
Politics, religion, social groups, and many advertisers are guilty of propaganda which has claims of superiority that are frequently just not totally true if analyzed for factual realities. We unfortunately live in a world saturated with propaganda or filled with many myths, lies, and deceptions. The truth is frequently not pleasant to hear so propaganda reigns supreme in much human activity.
I understand why propaganda is so dominant and popular in society but that still does not discourage me from fighting against propaganda in all its forms and shapes with the truth.

Beware of foods labeled with seemingly healthy buzzwords such as antioxidant, immune support, heart healthy, natural, gluten free, organic, whole grain, sugar free, low fat, etc. all of which are designed to sell you frequently basically unhealthy lopsided processed food which is not certified organic or pure highly nutritious food without undesirable chemicals included.
Educating yourself on what ingredients are healthy and which are not takes more skill than just reading buzzwords and making impulsive decisions based on only one or two words which sound healthy but are really deceptions.
If you feel helpless and don’t know what to do at least read the ingredients listed and Google them to find out if they naturally exist in the food or are unnecessary artificial and potentially unhealthy additives.
Here is a link which only covers a handful of these misleading health word labels.

Mass marketing via TV, radio, mail, and newspapers is no longer cost effective and is being replaced by focused selling to smaller identified groups of customers with special needs and demands.
The practical historical philosophy that one commercial or ad fits all customers is quickly biting the dust and being replaced by customized selling approaches to much smaller audiences.
Here is a link to an article in inc.com which describes the revolutionary changes occurring.

Better technology is not the answer to the stock market which is basically a gambling parlor Vegas style in microseconds. There will always be faster computers which will take advantage of the market in the future with nonosecond transactions AND THE ODDS WILL ALWAYS FAVOR THE HOUSE AND ALL OTHER INVESTORS WILL BE SHAFTED BY THE BIG BOY FAST COMPUTERS. Until you take out THE ADVANTAGE OF gambling SPEED from the stock market, you will not have a fair system for investors big or small.
The solution to the technological seeming paradox is to put in a time delay into all stock transactions so that when bids are placed they have to wait about a second or a few seconds before the transaction goes through. There should be a bid que during the bidding process where only the highest bid in the second TIME DELAY goes through and the rest are rejected. A time delay before a bid is accepted is the solution to computer software glitches in the stock market.
To avoid stock market crashes by the big boys who can sell a million or more shares in one transaction and intentionally lower or raise the price of a stock at a whim, the dollar amount of the trading transaction should be limited to about a million dollars. This will avoid money dumping and unjust manipulation in the stock market which favors the billionaires in this country and world!!!!!
