Success in Franchising is Not Always a Business

Many people believe that success in franchising is strictly for businesses and yet the business model can work for anything. How so you ask? Well let us look at some examples shall we? Consider that the Boys and Girls Clubs of America has an organization like a franchise system.

Did you also know that the Kiwanis Clubs and Rotary Club as well as the Lions Clubs and Optimists Club use an organizational chart resembling a modern day franchise system too? It is true.

But why stop there, what about religion? The Catholic Church is very similar to a franchise system and they have certainly done well over 1000s of years promoting that religion. In fact many large organized religions are indeed built quite similarly as well.

What about not so good things? Most International Terrorist Organizations are set up like franchise systems too. Why, because this structure allows them to work together and separately in their individual markets. For instance Al Qaeda has often been compared to a franchise and in many ways you could make that comparison and that is a scary thing considering the power of the franchise model.

Of course on a more positive not the United States is one of the best organized franchise systems I have seen. The Franchisor is our Federal Government and the States are the Master Franchises of the franchise system and best of all it is owned by the shareholders who also happened to be customers; that us the citizens.

It appears in the clash of civilization we have one franchise system VS another. This is one reason all Americans should support the system and thus prevent the sneaky bad guys from using the franchise model against us you see? Consider this in 2006.
