The Dough Starts Flying: Domino’s Takes Off
“We had no idea what we were doing” recalls Monaghan of his and his brother’s first venture into the pizza business. “We opened up without an attorney. I didn’t even collect sales tax – didn’t know I had to.” Initially, the plan was for the brothers to each work half nights. However, when Monaghan’s brother refused to give up his job as a full-time mailman, Monaghan traded his Volkswagen for his brother’s half of the business.

“Keys to Getting Past The Gate-Keeper In Business”
Savvy business people understand that one of the critical factors in developing a successful business and successful business relationship is getting past the “gate-keeper” that stands between you and the key decision maker you want to reach. They also know that they could have award winning marketing materials and very compelling messages, but they are all totally ineffective if they cannot reach the right decision maker. And all the efforts to develop those materials and messages will be wasted. Understanding the “gate-keeper” system that a business employs is very strategic information for you and your business. And you need to use some strategic thinking to make sure that you have developed an effective way to get past the “gate-keeper” of your key decision maker.

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.

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?
Hottest Food Franchise Business Opportunities: Pizza
Nearly everyone loves pizza, even if they can't seem to agree on toppings, so it might not surprise you to find out how lucrative the pizza business can be. Here's a quick look at some of the best Pizza franchises and what it takes to get each of them going.
Choosing A Business Thats Right For You
Many successful businesses have been built by taking a traditional business and making it better. Domino's Pizza was certainly not the first to offer home delivery of pizza, but they were the first to guarantee it would be delivered piping hot to your door in 30 minutes or less. Amazon.com was not the first company to sell books, but they were one of the first that would let you buy books from the comfort of your own home while sitting in your underwear
Identify the Key Decision Makers
Small business owners and sales executives sometimes have difficulty identifying the decision-maker or may be blocked from getting in contact with them. Sometimes you may feel anxious or uncomfortable when you're actually in front of a senior level decision-maker. We'll discuss strategies to help you in all three of these areas.

Get Out Of The Branding Business
The success of marketing your restaurant or franchised restaurant can be measured by how many friends you have made in your local community. It's really that simple. It makes little difference if you are a pizza franchisee who is one of 300, or you are Mama's Pizza and an individual operator. You must network your local community to succeed. Period. If you are writing checks for ads, if you are advertising on the local theater movie screen, if you have a radio spot, you are WASTING cash. This is true, even if you own a recognizable, branded franchise location. The only brand you should be concerned with is your own. And the only way to build your own personal brand is to get out of your office chair, or from behind the bar and go into your community.

7 Ways to Name Your Prospect
In the maze of corporate America it is sometimes very difficult to discover with whom you should speak. There could be multiple decision-makers or there could be only one decision-maker. And, of course, they’re never listed as “decision-maker” in the company directory.
