This is a late announcement, but I will be speaking this coming weekend (March 20 and 21) at the National Franchise and Business Opportunities Expo at the Convention Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota. During my presentation, entitled Franchising 101: Practical Considerations for the Franchise Relationship, I will be discussing some of the critical aspects of franchising, and the documents that potential franchisees need to review and understand before signing on the dotted line. During the times that I am not presenting, I will be on-hand at Armstrong Teasdale's booth and available to answer your questions about the franchise industry. If you will be in the Minneapolis area this weekend, please stop by!
