A Recent Entrepreneur Success

As you already know, I have my own business “The Entrepreneur’s Source”, I coach individuals who are considering self-employment as a career alternative and want to explore the possibilities.
I wanted to let you know of my most recent success story…
Ryan is employed in the health care field and works rotating shifts. Ryan wants a business opportunity that allows him to be a semi-absent owner. I presented Ryan a business opportunity that provides:
- No industry experience required
- Low start-up costs
- Published earnings claim, 30% Return On Investment
- Semi-absentee ownership (10 – 15 hours per week)
- Franchise listed in the top twenty of the Forbes Fortune 500
- Recession proof industry
- Industry leader with over 2,500 franchisee’s
- $55 billion industry
- Cash based no receivables
- Multi-unit operation, 5 year franchisees typically own 5-6 units
Ryan was introduced to The Entrepreneur’s Source at a franchise show and he quickly jumped right into our Discovery Process. For Ryan, a man who loves to work and being kept busy, having a business that he can operate in-between his rotating shift work seemed like a natural fit. Thus began a two-month search to find Ryan a business that would support his lifestyle goals, needs and expectations.
Then the rigorous process of financing! Ugh. But working with a coach can and will make all the difference. "This is all very new to me and the process would be an intimidating one without a coach to help." Ryan said.
We are thrilled to announce a new Entrepreneur has joined our ranks! Ryan will be opening his new business within the next few months. What an accomplishment!
Typically, my clients are interested in new challenges; frustrated with their current job or career path; unemployed due to downsizing, rightsizing or capsizing; considering a career transition; wanting to develop an alternative source of income; or looking to pursue their dreams of self-employment. Franchising is one option many clients consider.
Only 8% percent of all business are franchises, in 2007 2.4 trillion dollars, that is correct trillion dollars, or 50% of all consumer spending was at a franchise business. The five-year failure rate for independent business is 80% the failure rate for franchises is 8%. It is an easy decision where you will find the highest success rate!
This is a great opportunity to expand the number of small business-owners. The fact that The Entrepreneur’s Source is independent, with no exclusive ties to any company or franchise, makes us unique and completely focused on the success of our clients.
