In Which I Wax Poetic About Buying A Franchise

in which I wax poetic about buying a franchise

Let’s do something a little different today.

Instead of having you simply read some text about buying a franchise, with periods, too many commas, and a dangling modifier or two, I want you to read a poem I wrote.

It’s about buying a franchise…with a twist.

The “twist” is that the words I wrote rhyme.

It will be interesting to see how your brain reacts to what will be useful information…disguised as poetry.

Listen, real poetry doesn’t say anything; it just ticks off the possibilities. Opens all doors. You can walk through any one that suits you.”

– Jim Morrison

Tip: My poem includes links to informational articles that you’ll want to save for a later date. To access them, all you have to do is click the words in blue, and bookmark them.

I hope you enjoy my attempt at prose.

Don’t be shy; you can tell me if it blows.

 

My Poem

roses are red

Roses are red, violets are blue

There has to be a great franchise just for you

There are choices galore from A to Z

Hundreds of websites for you to see

It’s a good thing you can narrow franchises down by fee

That way you don’t end up blankly staring at your screen

Because I know in my heart you want to make some green

 

They say finding the right franchise can be tough

Unless of course you listen to me and keep reading my stuff

But whatever you do, don’t do it alone

Because some things in franchising aren’t etched in stone

The franchise model has been called the best

You shouldn’t be afraid to put it to the test

Just do great research-and then do more

That way you’ll be prepared and confident when you open your store

 

What Do You Think?

I hope you enjoyed my attempt at poetry.

If so, please give it a Facebook Like or three
