For our November episode of Mind Yo Business, we invited the 80s hair expert and Bedford native, Joy Dorsey, into the Pritchett Brothers studio for a great conversation! After graduating from Bloomington North, and earning a degree in secretarial arts from Ivy T ech, Joy began her career journey at Ponderosa (anyone remember that place??). She shares how her experience working in a restaurant, combined with her 9 years spent working in collections for Unity Physician Group, gave her the skills needed to respond to customers of all types of temperaments. Joy gives great advice to people who have to respond to angry customers – let them get everything off their chest before you respond with compassion. We hear about how getting laid off from Unity was a positive, how she met her husband through Meineke, and the joys of being a grandma. This conversation travels from rating the Australian Olympic breakdancer to discussing the potential of conquering her fear of water and learning how to swim with her grandson. This is just a great conversation between two friends about the things of life!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nambucca_Heads Broken societies: Inequality, cohesion and the middle-class dream: https://lukeford.net/blog/?p=142699 ‘There is no evidence that the ethos of a people can be changed according to plan. It is one thing to engineer consent by the techniques of mass manipulation; to change a people's fundamental view of the world is quite a different thing, perhaps especially if the change is in the direction of a more complicated and demanding morality'. (Edward Banfield in 1958) What Is Social Cohesion? https://lukeford.net/blog/?p=142679 * I suggest that we define social cohesion as the belief held by citizens of a given nation-state that they share a moral community, which enables them to trust each other… The very discussion of social cohesion often implies its absence and, even more specifically, the decline of social cohesion. I suggest that we label the decline of social cohesion “social erosion”, which we then can define as fewer citizens in a given nation-state having the belief that they share a moral community that enable them to trust each other… * In a modern globalized and multicultural world, it is difficult and problematic to cultivate a similarity of mind. National identity & social cohesion: https://lukeford.net/blog/?p=142671 * [Hans] Kohn's distinction had its roots in Meineke's (1970[1907]) distinction between “staatsnation” (state nation) and “kulturnation” (culture nation). Kohn's basic argument was that in Western Europe (his examples were France, the UK, The Netherlands and Switzerland), the borders of the state were settled prior to the rise of nationalism, which created a strong focus on the new democratic procedures that could legitimize the existing state. Nationalism therefore contained a narrative about turning oppressed inhabitants into citizens. In a less positive interpretation, Tilly calls it a “state-led nationalism” where “rulers who spoke in a nation's name successfully demanded that citizens identify themselves with that nation and subordinate other interests to those of the state” (Tilly 1994:133). In contrast, the borders in Eastern Europe were settled after the rise of nationalism, which created a strong focus on the ethnic/cultural dimension of nationhood.

How do you create a wildly successful multi-unit franchise? You create synergy. Joe Johnson knows a thing or two about that with his car repair and parts businesses.Check out Joe's playbook. You learn a whole lot during 23-years in the military, and after retiring from the US Army in 2005, Joe has applied that knowledge to building his auto franchise empire. But what makes this portfolio unique is how his businesses interact. The Wolf and Joe discuss how owning a Maaco auto-collision repair and paint shop, a Meineke auto-maintenance and repair shop AND a 1-800 Radiator franchise have created incredible synergy. Not only can he service just about any car problem,  he can also supply parts to both businesses. Cross selling at its finest. Joe shares why horizontal integration allows you greater control over your destiny, why owning the dirt gives you more value and options, and the importance of doing a deep dive on potential franchise opportunities. When you're looking to launch your own franchise empire and, like Joe, want to make sure the research is done right, you need a great team. FranShares is the team you need, making it easy to build, manage and grow your portfolio from as little as $500.

P., Meineke, J., Milovic, C., Bilgic, B., Chan, K.-S., Hedouin, R., vand der Zwaag, W., Langkammer, C., Schweser, F. Abstract: Purpose: To create a realistic in-silico head phantom for the second QSM Reconstruction Challenge and for future evaluations of processing algorithms for Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping (QSM). Methods: We created a whole-head tissue property model by segmenting and post-processing high-resolution, multi-parametric MRI data acquired from a healthy volunteer. We simulated the steady-state magnetization using a Bloch simulator and mimicked a Cartesian sampling scheme through Fourier-based post-processing. We demonstrated some of the phantom properties, including the possibility of generating phase data that do not evolve linearly with echo time due to partial volume effects or complex distributions of frequency shifts within the voxel. Computer code for generating the phantom and performing the MR simulation was designed to facilitate flexible modifications of the model, such as the inclusion of pathologies, as well as the simulation of a wide range of acquisition protocols. Results: The brain-part of the phantom features realistic morphology combined with realistic spatial variations in relaxation and susceptibility values. Simulation code allows adjusting the following parameters and effects: repetition time and echo time, voxel size, background fields, and RF phase biases. Additionally, diffusion weighted imaging data of the phantom is provided allowing future investigations of tissue microstructure effects in phase and QSM algorithms. Conclusion: The presented phantom and computer programs are publicly available and may serve as a ground truth in future assessments of the faithfulness of quantitative MRI reconstruction algorithms.

With Automotive Styling Centers™ in the U.S. and abroad, each location houses profit centers, ranging from in-store accessory installations, to off-site sales and installation of residential, commercial and marine window tinting and security films.   Key Takeaways: [0:18] Today’s episode of Franchise Euphoria is brought to you by IndyFranchiseLaw.com, a leading resource in the franchise space. Head over to IndyFranchiseLaw.com learn more! [0:59] Josh introduces today’s guest, Charles Bonfiglio, the president and CEO of Tint World. [1:58] Josh welcomes Charles to Franchise Euphoria. [2:21] Charles starts the interview by telling the audience about Tint World, which is an automotive after-market accessories and styling company and how he got involved with the business. [6:34] Charles made the decision to purchase the real estate tied to his Meineke locations which Josh points out is a great way to preserve a secondary asset in case something goes wrong with the franchise. [8:47] Over the years, Charles owned several Meineke franchises and sold them over the course of a few decades. He sold his last location when Tint World had about 30 locations in 2014. [9:52] Charles was actually not the creator of the Tint World franchise. When he first moved to Florida, somebody had already created the concept, and while he anticipated they would be a competitor at some point, he ended up partnering up with him to franchise. [11:51] Tint World became a franchise in 2007. As of today, they have 71 stores, several of which are outside of the US. [12:54] Tint World provides its franchisees with a system, a platform that will take care of heavy lifting, branding, marketing, support, among a plethora of other things. [14:38] When Charles was making the Tint World franchise, he crafted it with all the features he would want himself if he was a franchisee. These benefits maximize the potential for franchisee success. [16:18] Tint World just released an e-commerce platform where franchisees can sell their products online. [18:41] Charles finds that having the “franchisee mentality” is the best way to run a franchise system; equipping them with the right tools and support is key for success. [20:14] In addition to being someone who likes automobiles, a good Tint World franchisee is someone who likes working with customers and has the ability to maintain a growth mindset. [22:18] One of the biggest challenges Charles has faced as a franchisor has been setting and achieving goals for their average store sales and continually pushing the boundaries to get their sales even higher.
