Looking back, what’s the biggest mistake you made and what would you do differently if you could? Not having a solid business plan.

to franchise the company.

What is the most valuable lesson you’ve learned over the past three years? The numbers tell the story of the business and without being properly educated on the numbers, you can quickly face the challenge of failure without adequate time to create a positive change.
