Welcome back to the Scale Your Small Business Podcast with your host, Jillian Flodstrom. On the show, this week is Ed Howie. Over the past 30 years, Ed has up with amazing brands like Chick-fil-A, 7-Eleven, KFC, H-E-B Supermarket, Kroger, and Massage Heights to help them find their uniqueness.   If people don't recognize how you're different, why would they want to give you attention? The words “common” and “commodity” are very similar. You're definitely not a commodity. They are common and the market controls the value. By being distinct, you are able to influence the value you bring to the market. Then, the market looks to reimburse you for that.    It's easy to lose sight of the overall enterprise. Remember, your uniqueness is what is going to help you stand out from the rest of the crowd. You have to have a good, solid product or service, and is has to be consistent, but so does your branding.    For Ed, profits are an indicator of stewardship, which is how you create more than what you started with. Leaders want to create something of value that is distinct and unique. If you cannot operationalize your brand, you'll struggle. It doesn't matter how charming Tony the Tiger is. If the cornflakes suck, who cares how clever the brand is.    Ed's all about “wooo” Winning Others Over and Over. His belief is that every customer can be won over. We are constantly assessing the ‘wooo' and ‘pooo' levels of every interaction. Great brands wooo. It starts with truly understanding what your customers want and then delivering on that over and over again. Once you can not only systemize perfection but systemize what to do when you fall short of that, you'll be able to provide what your customers want. Set standards and keep to them. Good brands are well-orchestrated, operationalized, and optimized. Bad brands do one of them poorly.    LINKS   https://edhowie.com/   Key Takeaways If people don't recognize how you're different, why would they want to give you attention?  You have to have a good, solid product or service, and is has to be consistent, but so does your branding.  Good brands are well-orchestrated, operationalized, and optimized.

Franchise Interviews meets with Glenn Franson of Massage Heights. Massage Heights is an exciting new franchise opportunity in an industry that is still in it's infancy. Massage therapy has been around for thousands of years though until recently has not been seen as a practical application to treat stress, pain and other disorders due to the inconvenience in scheduling, costs involved and the inconvenience in scheduling, costs involved and the unprofessionalism of those in the industry.

Stories from Franchisees & Founders   In light of this new reality we are all living in, we thought it would be best to conduct a special panel discussion made up of high-performing franchisees across different industries to share with us what their crisis management has looked like over the past few weeks.    The ability to collaborate during this time will be incredibly beneficial for all of us. Today, we have the privilege of talking with two guys you may have heard from before, Peter Hansen and JD Busch. These guys are battle-tested, successful multi-unit franchisees.    JD has been in franchising since 1995 and started as a Massage Heights franchisee and RD before also transitioned into Amazing Lash. Peter Hansen is partner and co-founder at Franchise Ramp, a digital marketing company that provides recurring customer-generation systems for franchise brands.

Today I am going to continue the "Covid Crisis" conversation with Mike Drumm, a franchise lawyer and friend.  Mike and I will discuss some of the immediate legal implications that this moment in time is having on our businesses and our lives and we will look ahead to the extent that we can, on what franchisors need to consider, as pertains to everything from FDD renewals, to functioning in your business.  Drumm has built his legal practice, which consists of 24 professionals, on a virtual office model and has some inciteful tips to share about how to operate your business remotely.  This could have some very powerful and pertinent implications for us, as we now into our second week of "social separation."    Before founding Drumm Law, Mike wore a suit and tie every day and worked at a large, national law firm.  What he is most proud of today, is being the father of three young kids and hearing the following statement, when people meet him for the first time, "you really don’t remind me of a lawyer.” Mike is continually recognized as a Franchise Times magazine Legal Eagle, an 1851 Franchise Legal Player and is a designated CFE.  He is also an accomplished, serial entrepreneur and the founder of a start-up entrepreneurial venture of his own, Party O’ Clock, a revolutionary DJ company, for weddings and other personal and business catered events.  Like many, Mike's Party O'Clock business, is on hold for now too.

I'm not afraid to ask people to learn from their mistakes and to learn from people who are doing things right." Busch has been a disrupter in franchising from the start. In 1995, the former college cheerleader put three different franchises--an NCA Super Center, Kid Fit Sports Day Care, and United Taekwondo--under one roof, long before brand synergy was common practice.
