Are you frustrated by the economy today? Did you get downsized again? I can help - take control of your life and consider owning your own franchise. Not sure if a franchise is the right opportunity for you?--let's talk! I have owned and operated franchise businesses, and have been advising and coaching people in the world of franchising for 25 years. I have been where you now are. I have felt the fears and resolved them. I have had the doubts and concerns and found the way forward. And I want to share my success and passion for franchising with you. I sincerely believe that, based upon my personal experience, owning a franchise is the best way to go for a business owner.

What is my experience? Let's start at the beginning. I started my career in the franchise industry working for the corporate office of Sir Speedy in Newport Beach, California. This was valuable, but not fully satisfying for me. I wanted to get my feet wet. I wanted to make it on my own! So, I left the corporate side and bought a Sir Speedy Printing Center in San Francisco. After 4 very successful years, personal reasons took me back to Southern California. But the franchise bug had bitten. I wanted more!

I spent the following 10 years putting people into lubrication and tune-up franchises. This was followed by my work on a new facet of the business: creating sales and marketing materials for start up franchise companies--helping them sell their first franchises. This honed my strategic marketing franchising skills!

Funny how one gets known. The word gets around. Out of the blue, in 1989, I received a call from the Vice President of Sir Speedy, looking for a director for the western region of the United States. It was like going home again. I spent the following 7 years helping dozens and dozens of new business owners build personal wealth with their profitable franchises. Before I knew it, it was 2001, and I was ready to be a franchise consultant. I am still living my dream--helping people be successful in business.

What are my credentials? For a start, I have those 25 years of business experience. Part of that was spent with Erwin Keup, a franchise attorney who wrote the most authoritative work on the franchise business, "The Franchise Bible." We worked together getting franchise companies started. In April, 2006, I was interviewed on KCTS TV's "Serious Money," in June I was quoted extensively in a column printed in the Seattle Daily Journal of Commerce and this year I was quoted extensively again in a column printed in the Tri-Cities Business Journal. In February I was quoted in the Seattle Women's Magazine article Franchising 101 What Women Should Know.

So, with all that experience, how can I help you? As a senior consultant with MatchPoint, I am ready to put my 25 years of franchise business experience and success at your disposal. I will help you attain the "American Dream" of being a successful business owner using "The Insider's Approach to Finding a Franchise." I'm looking forward to talking with you, and matching you with the perfect franchise company to suit your needs and wishes.
