Master Franchisee vs. Franchisee?
Q: What is a Master Franchise or Area Representative? A: The BEST kept secret in business today…. Imagine sharing in the royalty income generated by all of the Subway Sandwiches’ or Domino’s Pizza’s operating within your city. A Master Franchisor shares in the income generated from the units operating within his/her territory. A Master Franchisor (also referred to as a sub-franchisor) is someone in the unique position of owning the rights to sell business franchises in a given area. This territory can be a major metropolitan area, an entire city or in some cases the whole State. The Master franchisor rarely works in the day-to-day operations of the unit; rather your job is primarily a business consultant to the franchisees.

The Pizza Pope: The Early Years of Tom Monaghan
When Tom Monaghan was a young boy, he wanted to be three things: a shortstop for the Detroit Tigers, a priest, and an architect; founder of a multi-billion dollar pizza company was not on the list. However, that is exactly what Monaghan would become. Since launching Domino’s Pizza in 1960, Monaghan has grown the company into an empire, with over 8,000 locations in more than 54 countries around the world, and sales that exceed $4.6 billion. Nevertheless, the story of Monaghan’s life was not always as sweet as the success he would later achieve.

Lesson #3: Dare to Take a Chance and Be the First
Monaghan is fond of saying, “I owe all my success to stupidity.” In reality, the emergence of Domino’s as a global pizza empire owes itself less to the fact that Monaghan didn’t know what he was doing, as to the fact that he was willing to take risks and gamble on ideas he couldn’t predict the odds or the outcome of.

Lesson #4: Get Your Motivation from Love, Not Money
In the 1990s, sales were soaring, outlets of Domino’s were popping up all over the world, and Monaghan should have been the happiest guy on earth. But, on top of the world is the last place you would have found him. Instead, Monaghan was tormented with guilt.

Beneath All the Toppings: How Monaghan Grew Domino’s into a Pizza Empire
“If you want to be successful over a long period, you have to have some idea why you were born and what life is about,” says Monaghan. “I don't know how anybody can function without thinking that through.” It may have taken him a while to realize it, but Monaghan certainly came to know what he was meant to do with his life. From dropping out of school and shredding cheese in his one-man pizza shop in Ypsilanti, Michigan, to exporting his recipe for success to over 8,000 Domino’s locations around the world, Monaghan pioneered his way – and his pizza – to the top. How did he do it?
