Who can you sit down with for lunch?
And everyone's trying to, like, get up one on each other.
So there's a lot of, like, fakeness.
And I loved the, like...
systems in hollywood which is like this is how we build great great movies and great tv shows but the way it kind of like operated really just didn't give me joy um and i was looking at my boss and i was like i don't want anything that you have like
Yeah.
So, um,
Like there are basically two businesses.
Every time you franchise a company, there is the core business and then there's the franchise business and running two businesses at the same time is very difficult.
So I think the best thing to do is to have someone who owns and runs the franchise business and someone who owns and runs successfully the original location or locations.
Um,
I think where a lot of people get in trouble is they're like, I'm going to try this franchising thing on the side while I continue to run my power washing business.
And we'll see if the franchising thing picks up and makes sense.
And then they're like doing a startup while still running their normal business.
And then they're convincing other people to come in and start startups underneath their part-time startup.
And it's like, this just doesn't, it's not going to work like frankly.
And so what I I knew that going into it because my background is in the franchise industry.
So I was like, hey, I'll find a great business.
They can keep running and owning and operating their business.
This new business, which is the franchise business, will acquire the systems, processes, trademarks, franchise rights, everything that has or will be created from a systems perspective by that business.
