Franchise Sales are Predictable with a well defined Franchise Sales Process
Franchise sales are predictable with a well defined franchise sales process. Franchising companies should have a well defined franchise sales process in place but it is doubtful that many do.

Energy Deregulation = Choice
People in many parts of North America now have a choice of energy providers. In the mid 80’s the federal government decided that monopolies were not good for the country and a competitive marketplace in the energy industry would be better.

HDTV is a big entertainment train coming at the consumer 100 MPH. In the Americas it took a bunch of years to transition viewing from B&W to color. Now the government has said everything/everyone will go from SD to HD in less than three years and that finish line is next February.

They all have the best HD answer. Lots of these folks offer you their interpretation of HD video and say the rest is "a world of hurt." In a lot of ways, their statements are partially true. BD is in the hurts the way they are trying to force their solution on the rest of the world. The option providers aren't much better with their HD flavor and walled gardens.
