Passive Income in a Franchise - Click To Read Article
For me the holy grail of any business venture is to create a passive income stream. What is the point of earning money, that one has to expend huge amounts of time and effort to achieve? This is even more important in a franchise. What I have found helpful is to make passive income a conscious goal that, in turn makes other day to day decisions easier. I ask myself daily, "Does what I am doing help me reach my goal of growing my passive income, yes or no?"

The success of Microsoft has been to invest, effort in producing a good software package. That product is then duplicated across the globe onto every PC on every desk. That is the recipe for success that I try to copy in building a great franchise. 1) Have a long term goal in mind for your business. 2) Break the business down to the basics and build a working model with systems in place that have a proven track record. 3) Then find a way of marketing this to effectively copy the success on to others. 4) Harness the power of networking to build the brand far beyond what the original business on its own could have achieved.

Andrew Edwards www.face-painting-fun.com www.sitesell.com/sellsafe20.html Born in 1964, the son of a South African gold mining manager, I grew up in the days of the SA gold boom. I was lucky enough to go to private schools while many others in the apartheid era faced hardship and lack. While I cannot complain about my schooling one thing it never taught me has how to run a business, let alone a national franchise network. In 2003 after a long career in the electronics corporate world, I decided to "exit the rat race". I had started my own sideline business in the un-related party hire industry, and found it a great learning experience. My financial learning had just begun, as I rapidly tried to increase my Financial IQ. Success for me is defined as a delicate balancing act, to keep all areas of life whole and fulfilled. Success brings real enemies and false friends, so for me "success" in the American Dream definition is not nearly enough. For me meaning, purpose, fulfillment and wisdom are areas that I hold dear. Money is only one of the tools we need to learn to master in this life.
