Wendy’s Wouldn’t Be Wendy’s Without Franchising

The franchise business model has been around for decades and generally allows entrepreneurs to purchase an agreement or license to market a product or service while using the trademark of a larger company. Of the 6,500 restaurants in the Wendy’s system, only about 400 are currently owned by The Wendy’s Company. The majority are owned and operated by Wendy’s franchisees: small business owners who are working hard to grow the economy, create jobs, and give something back to their local communities.

Using Technology for Good and Creating a Positive Apptitude

It wasn’t that long ago that computers were work-place only appliances, but today we (and our families) walk around with immensely powerful computers in our pockets. Our smartphones are powered by millions of apps and connected to a modern and mobile internet that enables us to do about, well, anything! These devices make it possible for us to connect with friends around the world, stay informed with the news anywhere, make payments, control the lights and temperature in our homes and even hail cars (which will soon be driven by computers as well).

Harnessing the Power of Youth: Global Youth Economic Opportunities Summit

Teenagers everywhere have attitude.

This was the initial thought that crossed my mind as I approached this year’s Global Youth Economic Opportunities Summit, the tenth annual conference presented by Making Cents International. However, these thoughts were quickly replaced by the acknowledgement that youth are more than the promise of the future. They are powerful individuals. Indeed, they are a force, and it is our collective challenge to ensure that they are a force for good.
