In this final episode of Season 15, host Stan Friedman delivers a heartwarming tribute to family, gratitude, and success as he welcomes Charles Bonfiglio, franchise founder and CEO of Tint World. Inspired in large part by hiis father, Charles emphasizes the importance of relationships and shares his journey from humble beginnings in Brooklyn, NY to leading a 150-unit strong and growing automotive aftermarket franchise chain. This episode also highlights his expanding portfolio of ventures, which starts with Tint World, ranked 249 on Entrepreneur Magazine's 2024 Franchise 500, his new emerging concept Cars Cafe and Auto Parts Network®, a Patent Pending, Automotive Aftermarket Parts and Accessories Distribution and eCommerce software company. Stan closes the episode extending gratitude to sponsors guests and listeners, marking the season's end with well-wishes for the holidays.
Dr. Tyler Kokjohn, now-retired Professor of Microbiology at Midwestern University and Project Core researcher, joins Jeff & Jer to talk about the latest developments in sci tech that will once and for all tell us whether there are alien hybrids, starseed, and Indigo children among us. Also, he talks about his time at his first UFO conference over the weekend, the UFO Congress in Arizona. But most intriguing of all, he speaks candidly about his being a reformed debunker and gives us some real insights into the mind of the “nasty, noisy negativists,” as Stan Friedman was fond of saying. That, and a whole lot more including the limits of science, the near-death experience, the mysteries of consciousness, and helping Jeff gather evidence from his paranormal encounters. That's a lot of description because there's a lot here on this special, extensive interview! (originally aired 03.01.2012)

This week I present a very special edition of Franchise Today, featuring excerpts of me being interviewed by Tracy Panase and Shannon Wilburn, on their brand new podcast, The Franchise Leaders Forum. With permission from Tracy and Shannon, we are simulcasting that interview, right here on Franchise Today. So, listen as we flip the script and I become the subject of the interview, as opposed to being the interviewer. While this simulcast introduces you to Tracy and Shannon and The Franchise Leaders Forum, it also gives you a chance to learn a bit more about my storied career, which started in broadcast and led to some 36 subsequent years in franchising. I hope you enjoy this. I had a ton of fun doing it!
If you don't do something that differentiates you, you don't even get a look, much less an opportunity.In today's episode we are diving into strategies for franchise success. We are starting off with the importance of thinking outside the box and how we can be creative about drawing attention and sales into our business. As well as always being a life-long learner as a leader and the importance of meaningful connections within the franchise space. Today's guest, Stan Friedman, is currently the co-founder, managing member and chief development office of ZorForum and serves on the (IFA) Educational Foundation's Leadership Council and Board of Trustees. Stan is an “outside the box” thinker and has been a long-time proponent of diversity in franchising. Stan is renowned for his unconventional, attention-grabbing strategies that help him stand out in a crowded market and his ability to build strong relationships and leverage out-of-the-box strategies, such as using tax credits to aid inner-city franchise development.So, if you are ready to harness the power of relationships and networking within the franchising industry, learn out-of-the-box strategies, and tap into the significance of meaningful connections and continuous learning then today's episode is for you!Connect with StanLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/4stanfriedman/Website - https://sensiblefranchising.com/Podcast - https://franchisetodaypodcast.com/Episode Highlights:Stan's transition into franchisingEmphasis on building relationships within the franchising industryImportance of maintaining long-term connectionsImpact of out-of-the-box thinking on franchise successStan's unconventional tactics to differentiate himselfOverview of ZorForum and it's goalsImportance of peer-to-peer mentorship without competitionConnect with Tracy Personal LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tracy-panase/ JBF LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/jbfsale JBF Franchise System - https://jbfsalefranchise.com/ Email: podcast@jbfsale.com Connect with Shannon Personal LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/shannonwilburn/ JBF LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/jbfsale
VYS0038 | Fuck Capitalism! - Vayse to Face with Rob Kristoffersen - Show Notes Unable to put off dedicating an episode to the UFO mystery any longer, Hine and Buckley welcome researcher, podcaster and writer Rob Kristoffersen. Rob is the creator and host of the incredibly popular podcast Our Strange Skies: UFOs Throughout History, co-creator of the web-comic Welcome UFO People and expert on all things extra-terrestrial, ultra-terrestrial, crypto-terrestrial and any other form in which the phenomenon may choose to manifest. Rob talks about his own weird experiences and Hine and Buckley waste no time in asking him the questions that keep them awake at night: What exactly is it that people are seeing when they see UFOs? Are UFO and alien encounters a range of different experiences and phenomena or are they all the same thing viewed through different lenses? What's the deal with Whitley Strieber and what the deal with Jacques Vallée? Is there a connection between UFOs and death? What's really behind the whole Disclosure movement? Which Cryptid has the best PR person? and what does Rob really think about capitalism...?

Tom Whitmore: MJ-12 Researcher MUFON Board Member Terry and Tom are back with another fascinating guest – UFO and MJ-12 researcher Tom Whitmore from the San Antonio area. He is a board member and a current investigator for MUFON – a mutual UFO network. Tom Whitmore went to school at Portland State University and majored in business and finance and is a financial analyst. Tom has had a long-term interest in UFOs starting in the 1960s and in addition to being a MUFON board member, he has a special interest in the MJ-12 affair. When he was a child, Tom started reading Donald Keyhoe's books on UFOs. Back then, UFOs were frequently in the news. Additionally, Tom has always been an avid history reader especially European history and the Soviet Union – which lead to an interest in espionage and intelligence. In the late 80s when the MJ-12 documents came out, his first impression was that they might have something to do with espionage and with intelligence work. That is where Tom Whitmore's interest in UFOs and history converge. He has generally been interested in UFOs but he has had a keen and particular interest in MJ-12. The MJ-12 Program In the late 70s, a UFO researcher by the name of William More and a well-known researcher by the name of Stan Friedman came across the so-called Roswell incident. Both of them interviewed a number of witnesses. Bill Moore in particular, came out with a book known as “The Roswell Incident” with Charles Berlitz. This may have kicked off a series of counter-measures from the Air Force and from the defense intelligence agency, and even the CIA. The organization is claimed to be the code name of an alleged secret committee of scientists, military leaders, and government officials, formed in 1947 by an executive order by U.S. President Harry S. Truman to facilitate recovery and investigation of alien spacecraft. Tom Whitmore has a blog (https://tomwhitmoreblog.wordpress.com/) and writes research papers on things that were considered “secret” or are “top secret”. About Tom Whitmore Tom has been a MUFON member since 1990 and has served as a MUFON State Section Director for Texas. He has served on the MUFON Board of Directors since 1995. Tom holds the Chartered Financial Analyst certification from the CFA Institute. Tom is employed as a financial analyst with a local corporation. Formerly CEO of a $220mm financial institution for seven years. A few of Tom's interests include: crash retrievals, and military/intelligence involvement. Tom is an avid reader of history and current events. He spends his spare time playing guitar and he is a passionate music lover. Other activities include hiking, biking, swimming, running and camping. Tom lives with his wife Marilyn and their daughter, Julia, who will attend Texas State University in San Marcos.

This week, I present Part 2, of a very special edition of Franchise Today, a tribute to my best and closest friend, Jerry Darnell. Last week in Part 1, we heard from Jerry himself, as I reprised his visit to the program, from way back in February of 2016. This week, we'll hear from you, those who loved him. And, with special thanks to my sponsors, FRM Solutions, Atmosphere TV and ZorForum, this episode is presented commercial free. Thirty four voices in all, but one clear message... Jerry was universally loved and respected. His kindness and desire to improve the lives of everyone he touched, was second to none. So, go grab a box of tissues and get ready to shed some tears, as I tee up these voices, quips, sound bites and anecdotes, from some of those who like me, truly loved this man. I'm Stan Friedman, this is Franchise Today and a very special tribute to Jerry Darnell.
Stan Friedman is passionate about franchising. Past leadership positions include C-Level roles at: Blimpie International, Wing Zone, Maggie Moos and Tutor Doctor. Years of franchise development and relationship experience are what uniquely prepared Stan for his present role at FRM Solutions, providing CRM tools to help franchisors manage relationships with their prospective and existing franchisees. Always an “outside the box” thinker, Stan has been a long-time proponent of diversity in franchising. That work began at Blimpie, when he created an Urban Expansion initiative heralded by the media and leaders of the public and private sectors and culminated in a White House visit, where he and BLIMPIE Founder Tony Conza, personally participated in the President's “Conference for Community Empowerment.” Later that year, this initiative was celebrated as Blimpie International's Innovation of the Year. In further recognition of his work in diversity, Stan proudly accepted the IFA's Ronald E. Harrison Diversity Award in 2011, an honor only bestowed six times previously, in IFA history. More recently, Stan's work in diversity has been focused on pro-athletes and their transitions from playbooks to Ops Manuals, as co-founder of PAFI, the Pro Athlete Franchise Initiative, a program created by he and 7 year NFL veteran, Michael Stone. Stan currently serves on the (IFA) Educational Foundation Board of Trustees and Leadership Council, is a past member of the Supplier Forum and is a founding member of IFA's Diversity Institute Board.

Whispers Radio Stan Friedman and Kathleen Marden
On this episode of the Franchise Secrets podcast, Erik is joined by Stan Friedman to discuss how to find the best emerging and established brands. As a franchising veteran and high-level executive at several companies, Stan brings a wealth of experience to the table. Whether it’s finding the best emerging and established brands to get involved with or how to beat out the bigger brands, Stan has seen and done it all in franchising. Listen to Erik and Stan talk about emerging and established brands: Introduction How Stan found franchising (2:10) Stan explains how he entered the world of franchising after an unstable career in radio. He went through a program that taught him how to market and offer franchises to large real estate brokers who were suffering under the reign of RE/MAX. Competing with the big players (4:26) At the time, RE/MAX was snapping up the best agents by offering competition commission deals. In working for ERA Franchises, Stan offered a better alternative to those who didn’t want to cross over to RE/MAX. Conversion franchising (6:36) Stan talks about the method of conversion franchising, which is identifying the top players in a field and going after their base. He touches on how this is a strategic, proactive and more efficient alternative to just advertising to everyone and hoping for the best. How Google changed franchising (10:15) Stan discusses how the internet, and the wealth of information that comes with it, has changed the franchising game. The franchisor and franchisee dynamic has shifted, giving franchisees more power. The franchisor needs to adapt to meeting potential franchisees on their terms. Researching the right franchisees (12:57) Stan emphasizes the importance of finding the right initial franchisees by researching their backgrounds. Ultimately, the success of the first franchisees is the success of the franchisor. Collecting data (15:22) Stan believes the best tool is the ability to collect as much data as possible in order to make more intentional and informed decisions What Stan does now (18:07) Nowadays, Stan is the president of FRM Solutions, which produces customizable tools for franchisors to use to help better manage their system. He also hosts his own podcast, Franchise Today, which brings in successful guests to help educate those in franchising. Mastermind groups (23:56) Stan has recently started new projects to aid emerging franchisors by creating educational peer groups. Stan and Erik discuss the value in these mastermind networks, how they began and how they can improve your career and life. Emerging and established brands (27:05) Stan pinpoints what separates a successful emerging brand from all the others. He explains how leadership, mentality, values, and collaboration allows certain emerging brands to excel. Brand loyalty (28:36) Stan urges new franchisees to find the brand, culture, and values that align with their interests. He stresses discovering what is best for you and your passions. He encourages any franchisee to explore the culture on the ground level before becoming involved. Trainers and tools (32:20) Stan states that the most imperative employee in a franchise is the trainer. He says look at what a franchisor has invested in their trainers and tools that ensure a franchisee’s success. He highlights the tools and the positions the franchisor has set up in order to decide your own involvement. How Covid-19 distinguished the best brands (35:27) The best way to judge if a franchisee should get involved with a certain brand is to look at how they handled Covid-19. How did a franchisor help aid their franchisee in a time of crisis? Stan says look at the behavior—it will reveal everything. The most memorable people (40:09) Stan talks about his interaction with Jimmy John Liautaud, whose interview stuck with him to this day. He touches on how Jimmy John’s approach to business epitomized giving back to the team and collaborating with others. To Stan, Jimmy John’s interview represented the spirit of franchising: making others and yourself successful. Struggling franchisees (42:18) Stan gives an analogy of planting a garden to explain how struggling franchisees can pivot to start excelling. He explains how to distinguish systemic failure from personal, and what to do once you’ve examined yourself and your franchise. Lastly, Stan and Erik discuss playing to your strengths and finding the right franchise for you, whether that is emerging or established.

Her educational background in the social sciences has shaped her interest in scientific ufology. Extensive research and investigation into alien abduction has convinced her that some abductions are real. She earned a B.A. degree in social work from the University of New Hampshire and participated in graduate studies in education while working as a teacher and education services coordinator. Her scholarship led to acceptance into the Alpha Kappa Delta sociology honor society. During her fifteen years as an educator, she innovated, designed and implemented model educational programs. She also held a supervisory position, coordinating, training and evaluating education staff. Her interest in UFOs dates back to September 20, 1961, when her aunt, Betty Hill, phoned her childhood home to report that she and Barney had encountered a flying saucer in New Hampshire's White Mountains. A primary witness to the evidence of the UFO encounter and the aftermath, Kathleen has intimate knowledge of the Hill's biographical histories, investigation files, and scientific interest in their sensational experience. This led to a journey of exploration, leaving no stone unturned, to find answers through scholarly work, investigation and social research. She is recognized as the world's leading expert on the Betty and Barney Hill abduction.
