Dans sa quête pour devenir une entreprise « zéro déchet », « carbone négatif » et « eau positive » d'ici 2030, Microsoft prend une nouvelle mesure importante pour réduire son impact environnemental : améliorer la réparabilité de ses consoles Xbox. À partir du 20 janvier, les joueurs auront plus de possibilités pour réparer leurs consoles Xbox Series X et S, avec l'arrivée de uBreakiFix comme premier fournisseur agréé de services de réparation. L'entreprise, présente dans 700 magasins à travers les États-Unis, offrira désormais ses services de réparation, qui étaient jusqu'à présent uniquement disponibles via le Microsoft Store.Cette initiative vise à offrir aux joueurs une alternative plus pratique et plus accessible pour prolonger la durée de vie de leurs consoles. En parallèle, Microsoft élargit aussi l'accès aux pièces détachées, avec des composants comme des blocs d'alimentation, des cartes Wi-Fi et des ventilateurs disponibles à l'achat sur le Microsoft Store et via le Microsoft Repair Hub sur iFixit. Une démarche qui s'inscrit dans un objectif plus large : réduire les déchets électroniques en favorisant la réutilisation.Si cette démarche ouvre de nouvelles options pour les réparations, certains prix restent élevés, comme la carte mère de la Xbox Series S, affichée à près de 350 euros. Cependant, comme le souligne Trista Patterson, responsable de la durabilité chez Xbox, cette initiative permet de prolonger la longévité des appareils tout en réduisant l'impact écologique de la production de nouvelles consoles.Microsoft poursuit ainsi ses efforts pour rendre ses produits plus durables, une démarche soutenue par des fonctionnalités d'optimisation énergétique intégrées dans l'interface de la console. Une fois de plus, la technologie s'engage au service de la planète. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

Jeff and Daniel Perera opened their bagel business out of their home kitchen in 2020 and less than three years later they are hoping to have eight brick-and-mortar locations open within the next six months. The rapid expansion is being made possible by the couple's new business partner, Justin Wetherill. Wetherill is the owner of 1337 Capital and the co-founder of the uBreakiFix chain of mobile device repair shops. The couple first came into contact with Wetherill as they were opening their second location in College Park. “(Min Cho) started coming into the shop and — friendly guy — bought bagels, come in the next day, bought some more bagels,” Jeff Perera said. “(He) was continuously chatting me up and one day he, he just stopped me. He said, ‘Hey, Are you the owner?' And I said ‘I am.' He's like, ‘I'm Min.' I said, ‘I'm Jeff. Nice to meet you.' And he's like, ‘We love your bagels at the office.' I'm like, ‘Oh, great. I'm so glad you enjoy them.'” Cho continued visiting the College Park shop, eventually revealing that he had been talking up the Pareras' business to his boss, Wetherill. “Like a week later, he comes back,” Jeff Perera said. “He's like, ‘I've been talking with my boss and the team at the office, they like love your bagels so much. We'd love to do something.' I'm like, ‘Great! Why don't you just send me some information? It'd be great to catch up.' He emails me, I don't respond. Text me, I don't respond. This is in like August, September goes by, October goes by.” Cho remain persistent and eventually was able to convince the Perera to have a meeting with Wetherill. “Justin shared his story with us about how he built his business and where it started,” Jeff Perera said. “It's strange to say — Danielle's like, ‘It was a kinship.'” “Building something from scratch — there's not a lot of people that truly understand what that feels like,” Danielle Perera added. “I think there was like this understanding and I think that for us, that was really nice and just made the conversation more organic and just natural.” Wetherill said, prior to meeting the Pereras, he had actually been considering investing in a bagel franchise. “There's the stalwart brands that we all know and are aware of and there's not very many emerging brands in the space. So, we struggled finding a brand that we were comfortable partnering with — that had a vision different than what was already happening in the bagel space,” Wetherill said. “I enjoyed meeting Jeff and Danielle and appreciated hearing their vision for the business, but I think what really made the difference was, I think our second or third meeting, they're like, ‘Why don't you just come bake with us, come see the experience, work in the kitchen.'” What finally sealed the deal for Wetherill was experiencing a hot bagel fresh from the oven for the first time. “To me, that was really life changing,” he said. “And I think (that hot bagel) really sums up the opportunity we all have going forward — introducing the world to that experience. Because I have never had a hot bagel. I don't eat cold ones anymore.” Wetherill and the Pereras plan to make Jeff's Bagel Run more of an experience overall. They plan to have an open kitchen concept with their new locations to “bring people into the experience and educate them on how bagels are made.” Wetherill said they have already signed multiple leases, with plans to sign more. “We have pretty aggressive plans,” he said. On the latest episode of the Florida Foodie, the trio of business partners talk more about their plans for expansion. They share stories from a recent pilgrimage to New York City to sample bagels and how they hope to bring in new technology to improve the bagel business.

Episode 6 What is Technology doing to us... What is Technology Mindfulness? Why is over use of technology dangerous? How is it effecting our social lives? Does it improve our social status? The statistics say that interaction with face to face contact with people is at an all time low yet depression, anxiety and suicide. When we use technology our dopamine and cortisol levels rise, When we interact through physical touch and close proximity we experience serotonin and oxytocin. Communication is severely lost through technology since 67 percent of communication is through facial expression and body language. Technology is not a replacement for human interaction. Humans perceive anything written via email or text is perceived 2 x's as negative opposed to what would be perceived in person. Convenience is overriding connection. 47 percent of 20 year olds and younger say they have social anxiety and the main reason is because they are not learning how to interact with humans face to face. The architects behind social media know you better than your mother or lover! Your time online is more valuable than the dollar! What happens to your nervous system when you use technology? Is technology keeping us in a flight or fight response? Why is everyone so overwhelmed when it comes to email? How can we train ourselves to use technology without it disrupting our inner peace?

Rob Krecak is a thrill-seeker, self-professed nerd, question asker, voracious reader, competitor, keynote speaker, and business builder.  When he first got his Wall Street job as a sell-side equity analyst out of college, he thought he'd made it. After buying everything he wanted on his wishlist, he realized that he still wasn't happy. He listened to his deep-down desire to help more people by leaving finance to eventually own three Anytime Fitness health clubs and four uBreakiFix cell phone repair stores.  As someone vulnerable to technology's addictive hold from a young age—video games and Facebook in particular—Rob is on a mission to help individuals and companies reduce burnout and get back time to master their careers and lives. He founded Humans First to provide a one-of-a-kind coaching experience that analyzes and coaches people's efficiency and energy by paying attention to their mindfulness with technology.  Rob thinks there is always something to be learned from everyone, and he lets his curiosity guide his conversations. In his spare time, he likes to do CrossFit, better himself through reading, travel, and spend time with his wife Niki.

Todd Evans joined uBreakiFix as VP of Franchising in July 2015. He is instrumental in ensuring that uBreakiFix partners with the right individuals to represent the brand in new and growing markets. With his guidance, uBreakiFix has consistently been named among the fastest growing companies. He previously held the same position at Aaron’s Inc. where he launched a mega-successful franchise division.  Key Takeaways: [0:22] Today’s episode of Franchise Euphoria is brought to you by The Franchise 5 package. Head over to franchiseeuphoria.com/franchise5 to learn more! [1:01] Today’s Franchise Euphoria guest is Todd Evans, the VP of Franchising at uBreakiFix. [2:21] Josh welcomes Todd to Franchise Euphoria. [2:42] Todd does a quick overview of the uBreakiFix franchise concept; they are a technology repair company that will “fix anything with a power button.” [3:24] Before his involvement with uBreakiFix, Todd worked for Aarons, Inc. for 23 years. [5:20] The nature of the franchising industry is to find a need in the industry. uBreakiFix is well-suited for this as nearly everybody uses new technology these days, especially phones and tablets. [6:15] Over Todd’s first 24 months, he found that the business was extremely scaleable, and with this in mind, the business has grown to over 400 locations with another 490 franchise locations committed to open over the next 36 months. [7:02] One of the most attractive aspects of the franchise system has been the area development agreement, which consists of franchisees receiving the rights to a specific area to open multiple units within over the course of time. [8:02] uBreakiFix also sells technology accessories like phone cases, but they have to be careful to make sure their suppliers don’t view them as competition. [9:40] The inception of uBreakiFix started with their founder and CEO, Justin, who broke his iPhone while he was in college. When he took it to a repair business, he found that it would be a five day wait before it could get looked at on top of exorbitant fees. He then fixed it himself, and the business was born. [11:26] The first uBreakiFix location was opened in Orlando, FL. [12:07] Their franchising efforts began will selling about half of their corporate owned stores to the onsite store managers for each location. [14:55] uBreakiFix has four types of potential franchisees they typically focus their efforts on. [18:11] Todd believes uBreakiFix has four glaring points that set them apart from competitors in the business. [21:56] If you want to learn more about uBreakiFix, click here!

How To Buy A Franchise Show | Dr. John Hayes provides insight on how to buy and operate a franchise

Andrew Millar of UBREAKIFIX recently visited with Dr. John P. Hayes on the How To Buy A Franchise Show and explained how UBREAKIFIX franchises are changing the lives of people across North America. Some 150 franchisees own the 311-plus UBREAKIFIX franchise outlets in the USA, Canada and Puerto Rico. However, those numbers are going to change rapidly — one area developer, for example, plans to open more than 230 stores just in the USA. And then there’s the wide-open international market. Millar says the company is already getting buy requests from across the world, but management plans to dominate North America first. The company is already the market leader in the $282 billion mobile phone industry, but Millar says there’s a huge growth curve ahead. Franchise-wide store revenues should top $140 million in 2017 but Millar points out that’s only 3.6% of the market! And lest you think all they do is repair phones, they repair anything with a power button. Their goal is to capture users of the tech space and keep them as customers for a lifetime. All-in investment for this dynamic franchise is about $150,000 including a $40,000 franchise fee. U.S. veterans get an $8,000 discount upon becoming franchisees. UBREAKIFIX is on track to be the next huge international franchise opportunity, at least in the tech/repair industry. Could it be the perfect franchise opportunity for you?
