1 out of 5 stars Complete Fluff   July 25, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This book was a disappointment. The excerpt re: Howard Johnson's was interesting and I thought the rest of the book would be too. Unfortunately, it is not, and worse, when it comes down to practical advice, this book really was full of fluff.

The book was flimsy -- tiny, tiny - and about the size of Reader's Digest. The book takes an inordinate amount of space for the author to explain how great he is and how successful he has been. The problem is that his story is not that interesting and it is written like a 15-year old would write about himself.

Ultimately, this book is an advertisement for the author and his business, not a resource for you. I did not really see that this was part of a series called, "Instant Success", which should have been my first warning to steer clear. Unless you are dealing with pudding or coffee, "Instant Success" is a complete oxymoron (kind of like me for buying this book).

My mistake. I hope the author enjoys the $11 I spent because he won't be seeing any other money from me.

By the way, do you really think the other two reviews for this book are from independent readers who wanted to read the book for the same reason you would? Read them and think to yourself... does this sound like someone like myself who is looking to learn about franchising or does this sounds like a professional reviewer who had incentive to provide a good review of the book?? When you read these other reviews, they read just like the back cover of the book. Terrible.



5 out of 5 stars Let the Franchising Guru show you how it's done!   May 10, 2006

Successful Franchising reveals the process through which Bradley J Sugars built his company Action International into a worldwide business coaching leader.

The book teaches you how to buy and sell a franchise business, as well as the basics on how to franchise a new business enterprise. Sugars outlines the elements of the basic Business Chassis, a schematic that can be used to describe any and all businesses, and demonstrates how readers can use the Business Chassis to better understand their own business's future.

Successful Franchising provides business owners with the knowledge of how to go about speeding this transition. Successful Franchising gives entrepreneurs a clear and accessible recipe for franchising success so that they can start moving towards their own professional satisfaction.




5 out of 5 stars Find out the why's and how's of successful franchising   January 4, 2006
  5 out of 17 found this review helpful

Successful Franchising explains in Sugars' familiar, relaxed writing style how to buy and sell a franchise business, as well as the basics on how to franchise a new business enterprise. Sugars outlines the elements of the basic "Business Chassis," a schematic that can be used to describe any and all businesses, and demonstrates how readers can use the Business Chassis to better understand their own business's future.

The business methods Sugars outlines in Successful Franchising are drawn from the author's many years of professional success. Financially retired at 26, Sugars is a multi-million business mogul who assists, motivates, and trains hundreds of thousands of business professionals worldwide through books, DVDs, seminars, and Action International's team of business coaches.
