The following audio file discusses the concept of Franchising, as well as the normal factors that inhibit individuals from pursuing their dream of controlling their own destiny, and owning their own business. There are also discussions about:
1) Fear of Change
2) Fear of Failure
3) Fear of the Unknown
4) It's Not The Right Time
5) Effect of Naysayers and Other Firehosers
6) Financial Constraints
While surveys show that 70% of individuals would like to own a business, only a small portion of those people actually take the bold step to become an entrepreneur.

Molly Maid Earns "Extreme" Recognition
The following is text from an email that Meta-Franchise Consulting received from one of our most popular Franchisors, Molly Maid.
"Blake Mullins, a producer for ABC-TV's top-rated reality series, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, recently found himself without a post-construction cleaning crew and only a few hours before the homeowners were to arrive for the family walk through.
Blake later revealed that he and his extended family were Molly Maid customers. He knew we could get the job done, so he phoned our Molly Maid franchisees in Houston, TX, Tony and Susie Kirby, who answered the frantic call at 6:35 p.m. "We need as many maids as you can muster at 3613 Goodhope, ASAP," said Blake, in an exasperated voice. The Kirbys went into speed dial and by 8 p.m. arrived at the house with good hope: a team of maids armed with ample supplies and equipment. Then Blake issued the challenge, "You have only one hour to get this two-story, four-bedroom home ready."
"There must have been 150 people from painters, electricians, designers, to tilers electronics guys, and lighting contractors still working. It was absolute chaos," said Susie Kirby. "But when they saw us, they all began cheering. I felt the adrenaline rush through my body. Our maids experienced a similar surge of energy because we cleaned that house top to bottom and saved the day."
When it absolutely, positively has to get done, who do they call-our Molly Maid franchise owners. Mark your calendar for Sunday, September 26, 8/7c, for the Extreme Makeover: Home Edition season premiere and our Molly Maid to-the-rescue episode."

Own Your Own Business, <$25k Cash, Part 1
