Well you can’t have it, because I just made that name up. But here’s the thing.

As of late, I’ve been seeing more and more of these “franchise earnings claims” online. Why?

Because a new breed of franchise marketers has jumped into franchising.

They’re aggressive, and everything they do has to do with numbers.

Revenue numbers. Profit numbers.

Numbers, numbers, numbers.

Numbers, schmumbers.

Thing is, these numbers don’t matter at all. Why is that, Joel?

Because you’re looking at them wrong.

Wait…aren’t they important?

Isn’t it important to find out how much the franchisees are making?

Of course it is.
