The World Famous Colonel: How Harland Sanders Got His Start
He is known as the Southern gentleman in the white suit, white goatee and black string tie, and he is perhaps one of the most famous colonels in the world. Despite not founding the business until he was 66 years old, Harland Sanders turned his local chicken stand into a multinational fast-food franchise. Today, KFC has more than 14,000 franchise outlets in over 100 countries, and pulls in over $520 million in annual revenue. That success, however, was the result of a long and uphill journey for Sanders.

Finger Lickin’ Good: Sanders Opens Kentucky Fried Chicken
In 1930, Sanders opened up a service station along U.S. 25, a busy highway which ran through Kentucky. It was not just a regular gas station. When people stopped to refill their gas tanks, Sanders made sure they refilled their stomachs as well. With home-cooked meals that his wife and children helped to prepare, Sanders’ first venture into the fast-food industry had begun. His station might have been simple, with only one table and six chairs, but it was a start.

Lesson #1: You Have To Get Yourself A Gimmick
If there was one thing that Sanders knew better than how to make a quick and mean fried chicken, it was how to sell himself. In the early days, Sanders understood that if he was going to make his small service station stand out from the rest, he would need something that was different from everyone else, something that nobody else could possibly have. The answer? Himself.

Lesson #2: Figure Out How To Whet The Nation’s Appetite
Within the industry, Sanders had come to be respected as a great marketer not just because his own face was plastered around the country. Rather, Sanders understood food and he understood what it would take to whet the nation’s appetite for his food. He was thus able to come up with a number of unique strategies for enticing customers to try his fast-food franchise.
