...CHAPTER Franchises and Buyouts What comes to mind when you see the word franchise? For many, it’s a fast-food restaurant. For some, it’s the standardization of America—the same product or service wherever you go. For still others, it is a business model with franchisor rules that must be followed. For Dina Dwyer-Owens, however, it’s a way of teaching “principles and systems of personal and business success so that all people we touch live happier and more successful lives.” Dwyer-Owens is chairwoman and CEO of The Dwyer Group, a holding company of seven service-based franchise organizations: Aire Serv, Glass Doctor, Mr. Appliance, Mr. Electric, Mr. Rooter, Rainbow International, and The Grounds Guys. Founded in 1981 as Rainbow International, The Dwyer Group’s companies were providing services through more than 1,500 franchises in 10 countries by 2012.

...ORGANIC RESTAURANT BUSINESS PLAN Presented to the Faculty of the Agribusiness Department California Polytechnic State University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Bachelor of Science By Jesse Adam Godsey June 2010 © Jesse Godsey 2010 i APPROVAL PAGE TITLE: AUTHOR: DATE SUBMITTED: A Business Plan for an Organic Restaurant Jesse Godsey June 2010 Dr. Carol Sexton Senior Project Advisor Signature ii ABSTRACT This study was undertaken to determine if it is feasible to open an organic restaurant in San Luis Obispo, CA. All collected data went into the development of a bare bones business plan for the organic restaurant. The report utilizes two techniques for analysis of this data. A strategic analysis was used to determine if the restaurant could be a legitimate competitor among the many local restaurants of San Luis Obispo. Strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats were outlined, given weights according to their impact, and used to develop a SWOT matrix. Strategic goals were set after reviewing the matrix and a QSPM, quantitative strategic planning matrix, was created to determine which goal was worth pursuing. The final step in determining if the organic restaurant could compete in San Luis Obispo was to perform a competitive analysis against what were determined to be the top local competitors. Following the strategic analysis, a financial analysis was executed to determine whether the operation offered a profitable...
