    Should Franchisors be Required to List Litigation in Disclosure Documents?
    Currently Franchisors are required to list litigation in the Uniform Franchise Offering Circular, which is against them. Soon they maybe required to list the litigation that they file as well. In my opinion this is a bad idea all the way around. First of all putting dirty laundry in a UFOC is bad business, the more that is there the worse it is for the brand name and the future franchise
    John Cameron Swayze was a respected newsman of the fifties and sixties. Timex execs decided that he would be the ideal spokesmen for their watches so he was the one who introduced their once-famous slogan "It takes a licking and keeps on ticking." To prove it, the watch was put to some pretty stiff tests on live television so the competition couldn't claim they were fake.

    Things went along splendidly. The watch passed several on-screen test until one fateful night when Mr. Swayze came on and strapped a timex onto an outboard motor propellor.

    Resell Promotional Merchandise For Profits

Corporate promoting can add up to quite a sum and reduce profits for a business if care is not taken to protect against this. The answer to how to successfully promote business without losing your shirt is to engage in intelligent

    Effective Marketing is About Loving Your Customers
    “Quality means doing it right when no one is looking.” ~Henry FordDo you cut corners in your products and services? Or do you make the honest effort to do it right even when no one is looking?

    The motor was attached to the side of a transparent tank and you could see inside of it. Swayze started the engine. After letting it run for several seconds, he hit the stop button. "And now you'll see just how tough a Timex watch is," he said, swinging the motor up out of the tank. To his shock, the watch wasn't on the propellor blade. It had to be somewhere in the tank, so he moved the camera in closer. The television viewer could plainly see everything in--or not in--the tank. The watch was nowhere to be found. "We seem to have misplaced the watch, but if we found it, I'm sure it would still be running. Just remember, a Timex will take a licking and keep on ticking." That was the la
