PIONEERS TAKE ARROWS|DOMINO'S PIZZA PRODUCT QUALITY

Pioneers take the arrows, Settlers take the land. Domino's Pizza pioneered home delivery. Further, they created a nationwide mindset that pizza delivery should happen in 30 minutes or less.

Most of us only allow a company to have only one defining attribute. Everyone gives Domino's Pizza the attribute of quick, however quick is the enemy of quality. For most of us, quick & quality can not settle on the same piece of mental real estate.
Here's an interesting "news story" that crossed my desk. Domino's just can't be quick and delicious...it goes back to the Pioneer Days...



When Domino's pioneered the pizza home delivery industry they had virtually no competitors. Domino's survived the arrows and has become a settler...but their success attracted other settlers. Pizza Hut, Papa Johns and a host of other good pizza delivery companies have carved up Domino's once exclusive market.

Does McDonald's Confer Success On anyone?

Not according to Ray Kroc. In McDonald's founder Ray Krocs book Grinding It Out, Mr. Kroc writes:
McDonald's does not confer success on anyone. It takes guts and staying power to make it with one of our restaurants. At the same time, it doesn't require any unusual apptitude or intellect. Any man with common sense, dedication to principles, and a love of hard work can do it.
It is just as true in the maid service industry today. If you are weighing entering the ranks of the self employed please consider my brand, You've Got MAIDS®.

CHARLESTON, SC |MAID SERVICE TIP #2

This post is one of a series devoted to Charleston, SC Maid Service. - Ed.
So you live in Charleston, South Carolina and you are in the market for a Low Country Maid Service. Here is a maid service tip to help you select the Charleston County Maid Service that best suits your home cleaning needs.

CHARLESTON MAID SERVICE TIP #2

Are you looking for Low Country Quality Maid Service or just Low Cost Maid Service? Is a low cost maid service worth the real cost? Only you can answer these questions for yourself.

In Charleston, just like everywhere else, everyone knows that you get what you pay for. You know this is true of your house, your neighborhood, your vehicle, what you purchase at the grocery store, and yes…even your maid service.

When you are comparing maid service providers, examine what level of quality maid service they can deliver. When you do this, you can insure that they will provide the highest quality service for you, making the cost more worthwhile. Low cost maid services are typically poor service maid services…but you probably already figured that out.

If you need Low Country Maid Service that really listens to your needs please call local Franchise Partners Tali Vereen and Angie Barnes at 843-805-7000. Or email them directly by clicking here.

Detectives are looking for more victims of a woman accused of stealing jewelry from houses she was hired to clean.

ARE YOU COURAGEOUS?

“Wherever you see a successful business, someone once made a courageous decision.”– Peter F. Drucker

When was the last time you did something courageous? When is the last time I did something courageous? Where does courage originate?
I think true courage is born out of faith. Faith needs to show up first in order to create courage. You got to believe, pray, hope that your risk will pay off. It doesn't matter if it is making a sale, asking a girl out on a date, or buying a business. Courageous decisions flow out of faith. You gotta have faith.

MARK TWAIN|SHOULD IT BE A GAMBLE TO START A NEW BUSINESS?

Mark Twain wrote, "There are two times in a man's life when he should not speculate: when he can't afford it, and when he can." Are you thinking about going into business for yourself, but you don't want to be by yourself? If the answer is yes your only real avenue is through buying into a franchise. Here is a link to an article that makes a great case for Franchises.

I don't like to gamble. I take calculated risk and I bet on my abilities and determination to see it through to the end. This seems to be the most prudent mindset for entering into a new franchise.

The business you choose does not need to be glamorous, in fact I could make a case for doing the dirty work. There is less competition in the maid business for bright, determined business men and women than there is in Silicon Valley. That's a fact. By deciding to master a simple service and scaling it, you are stacking the deck in your favor.

If you want to gamble, go to Vegas...at least they give you free drinks. Just never forget why they keep sending cocktails...because the people that own Las Vegas don't like to gamble. They like to stack the odds in their favor.

Craigslist Hoax |Man's Home Ransacked

This post is one of a series devoted to purchasing maid service on CRAIGSLIST. - Ed.

Man's Home Ransacked After Craigslist Hoax...Police say people who took items from an Oregon man's home after his belongings were listed as free on Craigslist could face theft charges if they don't return the items.
Oregon Sheriff Richard Fogarty is quoted "it baffles me why people would see something on Craigslist and buy it at face value as being legitimate." Well said Sheriff Fogarty, well said.

Another MAID GONE BAD|Where have you gone Alice of the Brady Bunch?


This post is one of a series devoted to independent maids gone bad. - Ed.
Another independent maid goes bad. This one in Guelph, Ontario. In 1973 Neve Campbell was born in Guelph, Ontario at the height of the Brady Bunch hit television series. Naturally this brings us back to Alice, the Brady Bunch Maid.
This housekeeper, Deborah Pauley, 56, had been working for the same people for 25 years. They were "friends". Ms. Pauley stole $168,000 from her so called friend.
To read the rest of this tale click here. The Judge told Ms. Pauley this was an extreme breach of trust:
  • "People who hire individuals to help them, hire them thinking they and their belongings are safe."

  • "People are entitled to feel safe, especially in their own home."

When I think of independent housekeepers I think of Alice from the Brady Bunch. Ann B. Davis played the role of Alice, and in doing so set the standard for all housekeepers for our generation. But Alice from the Brady Bunch would never rob Mr. and Mrs. Brady. She was the perfect housekeeper. She never had to "renegotiate" her compensation package. Alice had no baggage. No personal problems. Alice had no addictions. No man friends with addictions. No chance that Mr. Brady might be attracted to her...I mean come on. And there was zero chance that Alice would ever do anything dishonest. Nada. Zilch.
I guess if we could clone Alice from the Brady Bunch, my company would cease to be relevant. So would every professional maid service in North America. How could we compete with Alice? Good thing Alice does not exist. Good thing she is just a character that sprang from Sherwood Schwartz's pen.
If you want a professional relationship with a housekeeping company that takes this business very serious call You've Got MAIDS®. If you want a friend you can wait for Deborah Pauley...she should be back on the street in 3 years with good behavior.

PARTNERSHIPS|SHOULD HUSBAND & WIFE WORK TOGETHER?


Does Mom and Pop work as a business partnership? Depends on who you ask. Mom & Pop should clearly define their roles up front. Mom & Pop also need the ability to respect each other.
Here's what Ray Kroc said about Husband & Wife Franchise Partners in his book Grinding It Out.


Since a McDonald's restaurant is a prime example of American small business in action, the husband-wife team is basic for us. Typically, the husband will look after operations and maintenance while his wife keeps the books and handles personnel...two heads are better than one, whether a guy is manning a griddle and sweating out getting started in his own store or shuffling papers behind a fancy desk.


If you are considering joining a franchise, please consider the residential maid service franchises. The Molly Maid Franchise, the Merry Maids Franchise, & the MAIDS Franchise are all very good choices, but if you are looking for a bargain, You've Got MAIDS® residential maid service franchise might be right for you. Since we are building our brand, you will enjoy lower start up cost, & have better access to protected territories. This is a ground floor opportunity and that is something Molly Maid, Merry Maids, & Maidbrigade can not deliver on anymore.

Craigslist SCAMS|BRICK & MORTAR

This post is one of a series devoted to purchasing maid service on CRAIGSLIST. - Ed.
Craigslist Scams... You just don't know who is behind that free Craigslist ad. You don't know where they come from. You're not actually interacting with a person...you could be talking to anyone. Bottom line, you can not park your common sense when you sit down in front of your keyboard. Be careful about who you invite into your home.
When asked why our current Clients initially selected a professional maid service like You've Got MAIDS
® over a cheaper uninsured cleaning lady, more and more of our new Clients are telling us IF A MAID SERVICE DOESN'T HAVE A BRICK AND MORTAR ADDRESS...NO DEAL!

MANAGEMENT TOOLS|GREED & FEAR

This post is one of a series devoted to motivation. - Ed.
Yesterday we discussed the motivational aspects of greed, from the perspective of Michael E. Gerber, author of the E-Myth series, and Milton Friedman. Bottom line both Gerber and Friedman agree with Gordon Gekko, the character in the 1987 box office hit Wall Street. Greed is good.

How about fear...is fear good? Does fear motivate? Does fear motivation control workers' output?

A factory worker in China must work long hours for little pay under harsh work conditions, but they are fearful. They are fearful because there are millions and millions of peasants within 20 miles that would covet that factory job. The factory management capitalize on that fear of loss and push their employees further, and further in order to drive cost down. Fear still works in places like China to motivate employees.

This type of fear is hard for us Americans to imagine. Even our unemployed do not fear dieing of hunger or disease...not so in China. We are a wealthy society and thank God for that. Because of this Fear is not our strongest motivator...and we have greed to thank for that.

HEALTH CLUB CONTRACT|MAID SERVICE CONTRACT?

New York Attorney General Andrew M. Cuomo advises that before signing a health club contract, you need to become an educated consumer and visit or call at least two other health clubs. New York Attorney General Andrew M. Cuomo wants you to learn about dues and when they must be paid, hours of operation, variety and frequency of classes and ability to use multiple locations.
New York Attorney General Andrew M. Cuomo advises you not give in to high pressure sales tactics or feel obligated to sign a contract immediately.
New York Attorney General Andrew M. Cuomo wants you to tell the health club representative you need time to think about joining the club and ask for free passes to determine if the club is right for you. Click here to read this article.
Thank God
New York Attorney General Andrew M. Cuomo isn't looking for maid service in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina because if he were he might run across this Charleston Maid Service website that wants it's Clients to sign maid service contracts.

Maid bitten on thigh and finger|Housewife gets 20 months

A Singaporean housewife who set her dog on her Indonesian maid was sentenced to 20 months in jail. Following are the highlights. You can also read the entire article by clicking here.

  • It is the first time an employer has used an animal to abuse her maid in Singapore.
  • District Judge Wong Choon Ning sentenced Tay, a mother of three grown-up children, to a 20-month jail term.
  • RIGHT after housewife Tay Siew Hoon got her dog to bite her Indonesian maid's thigh and finger, she sat down to watch TV in the living room of her Changi home.
  • Tay's husband, 54, who works as a property agent and car dealer, told The Straits Times he felt the sentence was 'unfair'. 'My maid tells lies and I feel very sad this has happened,' Mr Kim said.
You've Got MAIDS® is a residential maid service that prides itself on following the Golden Rule. Perhaps housewives in Singapore should do the same.

Forget about Your Weaknesses|FOCUS ON STRENGTHS

If your goal is to run the best, most excellent maid service franchise in the world forget about your employees weaknesses and concentrate on their strengths. Attacking weakness is a complete waste of time. Focusing on weakness only works to vaccinate your maid service franchise from failure, it never helps a maid service franchise achieve excellence.


What do you think? This is a theory presented by Marcus Buckingham and Donald O. Clifton in
First, Break All The Rules, & Now, Discover Your Strengths. The authors feel that any effort to make well rounded employees is a waste of company resources. Buckingham and Clifton's studies revealed that "excellent performers were rarely well-rounded. On the contrary, they were sharp."
WHAT ABOUT KAIZAN? We introduced KAIZAN to the Japanese after WWII and they have run with it ever since. KAIZAN is based on the core belief that the organization will move forward if it approaches each day as a opportunity for each and every employee to improve the organization in some way. KAI means continuous and ZEN means improvement. Forgetting about your weaknesses and focusing only on preexisting strengths has no place in a maid service franchise that has set its sights on being the best.

BUY A FRANCHISE|INVEST IN YOURSELF

BUY A FRANCHISE|INVEST IN YOURSELF

What could bring more security than investing in yourself?
If you work for a large company how much security do you currently enjoy? What guarantee's do you have? If you work for Goldman Sacks, be prepared for the scores of layoffs being planned at this moment. If you work for Bank of America or Countrywide start dusting off your resume. Even Anheuser-Busch is gearing up for a round of cost cutting, and that means layoffs; the only group at Anheuser-Busch that have no fear would be the Budweiser Clydesdale's.
According to this Wall Street Journal article, there have been 475,948 layoffs this year (so far).
According to these US Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics figures, government workers are far less likely to be laid off. The security blanket is much thicker when you work for the government. If you are looking for a steady paycheck this might be the best move for you.
However, if you have bigger dreams you need to stand on your own. You need to build something. When we purchased our first franchise in 1990 we didn't realize that we would never work for anyone else ever again. It was our July 4th, our Bastille Day. We had bought into the American Dream. I am here to tell you that we have never regretted that decision.
Work for someone else and surround yourself with the illusion that you have job security. Buy a Franchise and that illusion of security is replaced with the reality of the situation. You become the bottom line. You control your destiny. If you would bet on yourself then you "maid" a good decision. If you know enough about yourself to not want to invest in yourself, you are better off working for someone else.
The great thing about being part of a franchise is that your are in business for yourself, but you are never by yourself. The royalties that you pay are less than the value you receive in being part of something greater than yourself.

Buy a Franchise or Start a Business?

Here is a great read on the pro's and con's of buying into a franchise, found on Startups website that specializes in new UK businesses...
A franchise business is definitely the safer opportunity according to US Department of Commerce figures. This study carried out over 7 years revealed that after seven years, over 90% of new franchises are still in business, as compared to only 20% of individual new start-up businesses.
Most people, who do start a business by themselves, end up failing and losing a lot of money. I now that this is a sad fact, but it's true!
If you start a business on your own, you have to make all the decisions regarding location, layout of premises and find and vet all suppliers.
With a franchise business, the franchisor will advice you on all the above. In fact, you might even find that you are told where to locate your business, who your suppliers are and have some choice in pre designed layouts.
A franchise business provides you with the consistency and quality throughout the franchisors territory. This leads to higher levels of customer satisfaction. The franchisor provides full training and support in running the business. If a site is required, the franchisor will assist the franchisee in selecting a site that fulfils the demographic requirements of the product.
