Thought of the Day:

"I shall be telling this with a sigh, somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I, I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference." - Robert Frost
The Value of Franchising



The Value of Franchising

IFA's latest installment of its public awareness campaign highlighting the economic power of franchising on Main Streets USA was launched in conjunction with National Small Business Week May 23 to 25. New print and online ads will highlight how available credit and sound regulatory policies will help franchise businesses create more jobs. The ad's headline, "It's Main and Simple," outlines how encouraging small-business growth on Main Streets is a simple way to grow jobs and economic growth.

The Economic Impact of Franchised Businesses report, conducted by PricewaterhouseCoopers, found that franchised businesses generate a significant amount of economic activity in the United States, and stimulate still more activity in non-franchised businesses.
