Greg Moore joins the conversation to unpack one of the biggest misconceptions in entrepreneurship:That buying a franchise automatically reduces the risk of building a business.It doesn't.A franchise can provide systems, brand recognition, training, and operational support—but none of those replace the fundamentals of business ownership.We began with a candid discussion about failed franchise experiences and why so many entrepreneurs confuse buying a proven model with buying guaranteed success.Greg explains why due diligence matters more than excitement, why customer acquisition should be the first question every prospective franchisee asks, and why talking to existing franchise owners is often more valuable than listening to the franchisor's sales presentation.The conversation also explores when it makes more sense to build your own company instead of buying into someone else's system, what separates great franchise opportunities from mediocre ones, and why every business should ultimately be built with an exit in mind.Most importantly, it's a reminder that franchises don't eliminate work.They simply change where the work happens.TL;DRA franchise is a business—not an investment that runs itself.Customer acquisition is the single biggest factor in franchise success.The value of franchise royalties depends entirely on what support you actually receive.Always speak with multiple existing franchisees before investing.Choose a franchise that fits your natural strengths—not just your budget.Build every business so it can eventually operate without you.If the business can't function without the owner, it isn't truly scalable.Memorable Lines“Franchising isn't magic—it still takes work.”“Without customers, you don't have a business.”“Talk to at least ten franchisees before making a decision.”“Don't buy yourself a job.”“Build the business so it doesn't revolve around you.”“A franchise should get you where you want to be faster than doing it alone.”“Not every franchise is created equal.”GuestGreg MooreFounder of Franchise Maven and franchise consultant helping entrepreneurs evaluate, purchase, and grow franchise businesses.Author of Rule Your Freedom, where he shares practical guidance on choosing the right franchise opportunity and avoiding common mistakes that cost new owners time and money.Why This MattersMany people look at franchising as the safer path into entrepreneurship.Sometimes it is.Sometimes it isn't.A recognizable brand doesn't guarantee customers.Training doesn't guarantee execution.And systems only create value if they're actually better than what you could build yourself.The real question isn't whether a franchise is “good.”It's whether that particular franchise helps you reach your goals faster, with better support, and with a business that can eventually thrive without depending entirely on you.Because entrepreneurship isn't about buying certainty.It's about building something valuable enough that it can succeed long after you're no longer the center of it.

Episode 24: The human edge Speakers: Lila Vialat, Ian Rodwell and Rahim Hirji What happens when AI assumes aspects of our jobs, while also reshaping how we think about experience, expertise and our sense of self at work? In this latest episode, we are joined by Rahim Hirji, author of Super Skills: The Seven Human Skills for the Age of AI, to explore the changing nature of work, the unbundling of roles and the rise of ‘synthetic seniority'.  Along the way, we uncover the human skills that matter even more in an AI-enabled world - including judgment, taste, curiosity and wisdom – while revealing how technology can enhance rather than erode human potential. We also confirm how good old-fashioned techniques like mindmapping still have an important role to play…! View the podcast video recording here.

Most photographers think talent is the thing that builds a profitable business. But what if the photographers winning awards are also the ones quietly burning out, overworking, and barely making money? This episode is the wake-up call so many portrait photographers need. Sarah Petty breaks down the six business skills photographers often avoid, even though they're the exact skills that create freedom, profit, and a family-first life. From cash flow and outsourcing to planning, branding, and building genuine client relationships, this conversation pulls back the curtain on what actually moves a business forward. • Why "busy" doesn't always mean profitable, and the numbers every photographer needs to understand • The mindset shift that helps photographers stop drowning in busywork and start buying back their time • How genuine human connection leads to better clients, stronger referrals, and more meaningful work If you've been feeling stretched thin, reacting instead of leading, or wondering why your business still feels harder than it should, this episode will feel like a deep exhale.

In this conversation, Ellen shares how she transitioned from a demanding venture capital career into full-time art, guided by lifelong creative influences—especially her grandfather's travel illustrations and drawings. She explains how an invitation to an oil painting class reignited her passion, leading to years of focused study, plein air practice, and a deep commitment to painting nature's peaceful moments, from marshlands and seascapes to sunsets and Idaho's mountains. Ellen also describes how surgery led her to experiment with gouache, a medium whose quick-drying vibrancy and spontaneity now balances and informs her slower, layered oil work. Drawing on her business background, she emphasizes time management, relationship-building, consistent marketing, particularly newsletter marketing, and “showing up and saying yes” as crucial to building opportunities and gallery representation. She encourages artists to develop a body of work they truly love, understand where it fits in the market, be patient with career growth, and actively create their own opportunities rather than waiting to be discovered. Finally, Ellen tells us about her upcoming gouache workshop in Sun Valley, her France Alps workshop, and her participation in major exhibitions like the California Gold Medal Show and the Brinton Museum invitational.Ellen's FASO site:ellenhowardart.com/Ellen's Social Media:facebook.com/ellen.howard.5instagram.com/ellenhowardart/Sign up for Ellen's Newsletter!ellenhowardart.com/email-newsletter

Join our next FASO Show Live!https://artists.boldbrush.com/p/the-faso-showLearn the magic of marketing  with us here at BoldBrush!boldbrushshow.comGet over 50% off your first year on your artist website with FASO:FASO.com/podcast---For today's episode we sat down with Emma Kalff, a painter living in a tiny rural town in southwestern Colorado, where she now earns 90–95% of her income from her art after years of gradual building, side jobs, and business education. She began in sociology at Boston University, realized social work wasn't for her, and followed her heart down to the art world in New Orleans through figure modeling, eventually receiving a rigorous classical training at the Academy of Fine Arts. Her work evolved from plein air landscapes into layered, dreamlike paintings that combine candid photographs of people with Colorado's dramatic landscapes, allowing compositions to unfold organically rather than from strict pre-planning. Emma is currently working on a series of five large 30x40 inch linen paintings—“who, what, when, where, why”—that explore existential questions about living and making art in a socially, politically, and technologically volatile era, partly through reinterpreting historical symbols in a contemporary context. She emphasizes that a sustainable art career requires treating art as both craft and business: balancing studio time with marketing and education, diversifying income streams, engaging with local communities, and not waiting passively to be “discovered.” Throughout the conversation, she is honest about the psychological challenges—discipline, burnout, distraction from social media—while still affirming that this open-ended, uncertain time offers artists unprecedented freedom and direct access to their own audiences. Finally, Emma encourages us to sign up for her newsletter and Patreon to stay updated on her work!Emma's FASO site:emmakalff.com/Sign up for Emma's Newsletter!emmakalff.com/page/49408/newsletter-signupEmma's Patreon:patreon.com/cw/EmmaKalffEmma's Social Media:instagram.com/emmakalff/
