JDN, ....did somebody say McTAVA? I agree with you 100% Franchising is an incredible way to leverage TPRO's expertise while not adding proportionately to risk. With labor rates at +or- 160/hr, there's enough on the table for everyone. With obvious calculable need at every manufacturing site and TPRO's toolset, this should be an incredible addition to the bottom line. I know that I keep going back to management's business plan in my posts, but it's like a V8 engine, if one or two cylinders misfire, it doesn't make any difference. Everything doesn't need to happen perfectly. There are several solutions, whose boundaries overlap and shift back and forth. There have to be thousands of potential franchisees out there, both here and abroad, who will see the profit potential here and sign up. They each bring unique relationships that will result in work for each of them with manufacturers. $$ will flow quickly, so long as TPRO has an understandable franchise agreement and can supply required training. This is just a great idea, and yes, McDonalds is a model to use. Roger

>>I would like to bring out AGAIN this NEW CONCEPT in Engineering consulting which is the FRANCHISING. THIS opens up a whole new realm of VALUATION and opportunity. I believe they are going to use their Data Base as the impetus to begin a business never before seen. Thats something to think about. Software will enter into it but believe me thats not NEARLY as exciting as the CONCEPT itself. Think about what I am saying! JDN (A MCTAVA sponsor)<< Thanks, JDN. Good thinking. And food for more thought. Any elaboration on this would be appreciated as you have more time to think about it.
