| In the franchising industry many service | | | | in my company; CarWashGuys.com, we used |
| firms can excel by collecting national | | | | franchisees in ID into WA and OR into WA; |
| accounts, which have outlets in many states. | | | | also NJ into NY and SC, TN into VA. Etc. But |
| Each franchisee can help with the over all | | | | it is not only the franchise registration |
| multi-state National Corporate Account. Only | | | | states. The Federal Government also has their |
| one problem; many franchising companies | | | | heads up their asses, the disclosure docs |
| purposely choose not to do business in | | | | being so lengthy you may as well invite your |
| certain states such as WA, CA, MD, NY and | | | | competitors both foreign and domestic into |
| IL.When discussing this recently with one | | | | your office for the day to go thru all your |
| academic professor he advised a strategy | | | | computers, banking records and files.That is |
| might be to do what many bootleggers did in | | | | not workable and indeed it very much hurts |
| the past by putting bars just over the | | | | America, too bad really, we need downsizing |
| borders of prohibition states. Interesting | | | | of regulations all the way around. |
| indeed and his comments about cross border | | | | Franchising is a good venue, but when you are |
| services from one franchise registration | | | | in a good business model why share it, with |
| state to another is worthy. For instance MI, | | | | those who can too easily sue you after they |
| IN, KY are notification states and not | | | | put out piss poor performance and you |
| issues. IL is a tough nut to crack.Indeed you | | | | terminate for such. I would rather keep my |
| could run units from a cross border state | | | | money not pay it to professional parasitical |
| HQ'ered franchisee. We have done this | | | | lawyers and Caesar was correct. Consider this |
| previously in order to serve large accounts | | | | in 2006. |
