Hello Franchise
2009-08-31 05:42:00 Three fake games and a month of practices and we've learned everything we're going to learn about the Chicago Bears before the start of the regular season. The running back, tight ends and linebackers are great. The offensive and defensive lines are good. The receivers are rapidly improving. The special teams are the league's best. The secondary needs to get healthy.But all of that fades in the glow of the guy under center. Jay Cutler. The Franchise. Cutler is the kind of great quarterback that organizations can be built upon. He elevates the play of the offensive line by scrambling from the pocket. He makes the receivers better by fitting footballs into spaces they don't seem to belong. He allows...
"You're Messing With the Franchise"
2009-08-31 03:26:00 Offense1. Jay Cutler is a special talent and I hope that stadium realized tonight what their organization has given away for Kyle Orton and unknown college guys. For the past decade, third and longs meant punts. Not anymore. I'm sticking with Cris Collinsworth and Mr. Cutler's nickname is now Franchise.2. Orlando Pace and Chris Williams started slowly but their play seemed to tighten up, specifically CW. Cutler's scrambling ability will cover a lot of that up.3. Forte, Olsen, Clark, Bennett, Hester....pick which one you wanna be excited about. I'm excited about all of them.4. Absolutely loved the ability to pound the ball into the endzone with the interior run game. That's old school stuff right there.5. Wonderful two-minute drill. No...

MTNL Now Dials Franchise Route For Its WiMax Services
2009-08-07 13:07:00 Mahanagar Telephone Nigam Ltd. (MTNL), a PSU Telco based in Mumbai and Delhi has sought initial bids for franchise agreement of its Wireless Broadband services utilizing Wi-Max Technology. Earlier it invited EoI (expressions of interest) for a similar franchise route of its 3G operations. WSJ reports that the aspired deal will be on a revenue-sharing basis akin to its previous 3G franchise agreement although very less details are available for sharing agreement of  miscellaneous  revenues accruing from such operations. The recent franchise route further showcases the inability of PSU Telco’s to leverage and market new age communication products to their advantage. BSNL and MTNL were given 3G and Wi-Max Licenses ahead of their private counterparts but has largely been unsuccessful in gaining first mover advantage in 3G and Wi-Max services. MTNL reportedly had only 1000 subscribers for its 3G operations till recently. Terms of agreement? The bidders should provide ...

MTNL To Dial ‘Franchise’ Route For 3G Success
2009-07-17 12:54:00 Mahanagar Telephone Nigam Ltd. (MTNL), a PSU Telco based in Mumbai and Delhi has invited expressions of interest from Indian and foreign companies to run its 3G services on a franchise based agreement.

They have set an ambitious target of 200,000 to 300,000 users for its 3G services in the first year of operations. It has been able to garner only few hundred users for its 3G services despite getting a first mover advantage in 3G services. 3G license allocation has seen hue and cry over past few years with the matter getting delayed every now and then. Government fixed the base 3G license prices at Rs 4040 crore and is expected to go for 3G license allotment in 2009 itself. Terms of Arrangement for bidders: The agreement will be on a revenue-sharing basis and the deal would imply franchisee deal for 10 years. The deal will be reviewable after the end of the t...

US Senators Failing to Address State Franchise Law Ramifications
2009-06-04 13:40:00 MSNBC reports http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/310-81547/ on the hearings that the US Senate held Wednesday with the heads of GM and Chrysler regarding the dealers that are being forced to close. The hearing was purely political, with senators making a long-winded speech during their alloted period and then allowing too little time for response. Most were posturing for their voters back home and their national image, as always. Few of them understand the business world themselves or take the time to try. How many times have we had to watch this political BS over the course of the last few months? Once the GM & Chrysler crisis came to a head, at least they finally had the backbone to do the necessary thing and take steps to handle the mess that the UAW, Chrysler, GM, and State franchise laws have put us all into. Nobody likes having to do what was done - but it was necessary. And now that it's done, Congress shouldn't be second-guessing ...

Self Storage Franchise Makes Building a Business Easy
2009-02-21 16:40:00 Many people think that a self storage franchise would be a great way to branch out into a previously unfamiliar industry, enabling a newcomer to get their foot in the door before moving on up the ladder and opening his or her very own company. Interestingly enough, when you go out and look for opportunities for a self storage franchise , there are not as many available as one would like to believe. They do exist, though and can be found with some degree of success if you know what you are looking for. The reason why one does not see too many self storage franchise opportunities is that by and large, the industry itself is very diverse. Unlike the big box chains and retail giants that dominate the consumer marketplace when it comes to everything from food to tires for the car, whereby one or two companies completely dominate any given market, the big box companies in this industry, the storing industry, are not that big. They do not have a monopoly on consumer attention ...

Advantages of Purchasing a Franchise Business
2008-08-23 15:33:00 By Budda OliverPurchasing a franchise business may be a good option to consider if you want to have your own business, but are not sure how to go about doing it. Purchasing and running a franchise is just like owning your own business, but it provides you with excellent tools, resources, and other advantages that do not come with starting a company from the ground up.A franchise is basically a license to use an existing company's name, trademarks, products, services, and other resources in return for agreeing to use that company's existing business formats and provide a percentage of your franchise's income and earnings. For the parent company, or franchisor, selling privileges to a corporation provides a way to expand the market share quicker, and less expensively.The most appealing aspect of purchasing a franchise is usually the fact that most of the pre-opening work is done for you. When you purchase a business format franchise, you gain the privilege of not only being able to...

Obtaining Money for Your Franchise Posted By :
2008-05-29 22:28:00 A common method of obtaining business financing is through second mortgage loans on a home or existing piece of property. Say you purchased a home ten years ago for $35,000, and today the assessed valuation is $85,000, with a mortgage of $25,000 still outstanding. A recent study by United College Marketing Services has shown that student credit lines have increased to over $6,000. Credit card usage has tripled since 2001 amongst teenagers as well. Since eighteen year-olds in many countries and most U.S. states are eligible for a card without parental consent or employment, the likelihood of increased balances, unwise use of credit and damaged credit scores increases.
