What's your excuse?
Do you have an area of your life that you feel powerless to create success? Have you created success in other areas of your life but have one area that seems to cause you more issues than any other? If we take some time to examine this area, we will undoubtedly find one or more excuses. These excuses will override your commitment to achieving your goals.

Did You Know That Your Beliefs Are Not Real?
Do you think it really matters what you believe? Or to put it in another way, do you think it matters what your beliefs are in your financial area, business or career, or your relationships? What about in your health and fitness area?
Simple Strategy Plan
What would improvement look like in your organization or area of responsibility? (What would make your area or organization better?) List those items as specifically as possible.

Find marketing partners
A marketing partner is another business which can complement your business or help to refer new customers your way in exchange for reciprocal referrals. A good example of this is if you leave some of your leaflets in the sales area of a fellow business, preferable in the same town or area as your business and in exchange you have their leaflets in your reception area. To take this concept a little further you could introduce promotional schemes; for example...you could put on your sales literature "When you buy a pizza you get 20% discount off of XYZ video store". At the same time as you offering this you can get XYZ video store to offer a similar promotion so that when a customer rents a video they will get 20% off pizzas at ABC pizza store.
Special Issues for an Area Developer
If you desire to own and operate more than one franchise outlet, you may want to consider becoming an area developer. An area developer is really a multi-outlet franchisee that commits at the beginning of the relationship with the franchisor to open a number of outlets within a given area (“Development Area”) over a specific period of time (“Development Schedule). This is different from the multi-outlet franchisee that may have first purchased one outlet and later purchases another outlet, etc., without ever being contractually bound to open further outlets. there are issues and terms unique to an area developer that must be addressed to make the relationship between the franchisor and the developer more equitable by having a fairer area development agreement.
Special Issues for an Area Representative
An area representative is best described as a "super" franchise broker and servicing agent for the franchisor. You will be disclosed in ITEMS 2, 3 and 4 of the franchisor's Franchise Disclosure Document with your 5-year biography and litigation and bankruptcy history if you will have management responsibility relating to the sale or operation of franchises. An area representative differs from a subfranchisor in that the area representative uses the franchisor's Franchise Disclosure Document and the franchise agreement is signed directly between the franchisor and the franchisee. The area representative is not a party to the franchise agreement. Under the area representative agreement between the franchisor and the area representative, the franchisor delegates to the area representative certain of the servicing and support obligations

What Does Pizza Teach You About Setting up Your Business for Success?
It is my assumption, that where ever you live, you are able to either purchase pizza or prepare your own pizza. In the area known as The New York Metro Area and the area around Boston, people are very loyal to where the ‘best’ pizza is to be found.
