Admission laws favor worldwide terrorists - sales-management

The Centralized Trade Appoint has rule that are allegedly in place to defend area monopoly buyers from fraud from franchisors who might endeavor to delude them into purchasing a franchise. Part of the area monopoly rules are addressing essential discovery paperwork. In this admission document, which is mandatory to be given to franchisees 10 days already any acquire is made are the names, addresses, phone figures of all franchisees in the system. For less important home based franchises this means home numbers, addresses and individual information.

I am very alarmed about our company, The Car Wash Guys and the chance that Intercontinental terrorists might use our cell car wash trucks as tools to deal out biological weapons. We use trucks and preview units that have capacities in glut of 600 gallons and low volume, high-pressure sprayers. Our team has washed cars at bureau buildings, forces bases, mass transit districts, rent a car companies, airports, malls, QSRs, grocery stores, shipping and allotment yards, truck stops, parking structures, golf courses, media buildings, etc, etc. We wash effects like shopping carts, wheelchairs, educate buses, trucks, aircraft, boats, awnings, concrete, decks, playground equipment, etc, etc. In a distinct day our crews may be at 10-20 locations, in a week each truck/crew maybe as many as 120 locations, all through a given city. And we have set up franchises in 23 states so far and that means in a lot of cities. What concerns me here is this:

In our UFOC (Uniform Authorization Donation Circular) there is a list of franchisees, with names, addresses, phones numbers, and areas. It contains the accurate in a row of all an evil-doer needs, apart from a map of how to get to the franchisees location. Even of more concern. Many of our franchisees own numerous trucks (units) and many park such units at their homes. They are not guarded they are just parked there. A celebrity could by a long shot walk up and put amazing confidential of the tank and walk away and our franchisees would then be spraying chemicals of mass destruction all over the city the next day. That would be bad. Not only from a franchisor's stand point and dent of brand name, but also from a stand point of what dent it could do to America. I am not alone in this problem. Think about TrueGreen ChemLawn, Pest check franchises, etc. We are all at risk, yet minion is assessment there.

We have set up elite precautions to care for our Water Contribute Tanks, have other franchisors? I have faith in it is up to each charter classification to do a RISK EVALUTION of such things, put it in journalism and guard ourselves and our franchises. The franchising community, at once can do our part. Think about the idea of a aim mail authorization company, there are many like Money Mailer, Voucher Clipper, etc. Additionally; I insinuate a down-to-earth idea. Erase the division of the UFOC with listings of franchisees, names, areas and addresses. Until a more final phase of the sale and after the franchisor receives a ten-year credentials check from the prospect. Or i don't know only if it is asked for from the chance in inscription later. Putting out a list of all who owns a ChemLawn truck in the land is just daft right now. How about the name brands which are American icons, like McDonalds. After all last time they went after AMERICAN AIRLINES and UNITED AIRLINES. I have previously had competitors who pretended to be a prospect, later dump hydrofluoric acid in the tanks of one of my franchisees a fasten of years ago to cause him to harm the paint on customers car so he could pick up an balance from an auto dealer our franchisee washed for. We did not amount out what happened for quite a while and only cultured of it after the destruction and an member of staff of the competitor became angry and told us. What if that were anthrax?

Even more scary is the fact that I had numerous earlier franchisees who were Muslim, who often discussed their despise of our government. Which I guess was in all probability them exercising their free speech, which is permissible of course, yet now it does not seem so innocent. There are so many franchises out their that have free admittance to facilities, such as; Shred It, AmeriSpec, American Leak Detector, Environmental Biotech, Merry Maids, Ceremony Master, Terminex, ChemDry. I have in my opinion seen the ease at which our band transverses all the way through airport fencing, collateral gates, etc. They see the truck and the uniformed member of staff and wave us forward. Now think about this problem, our team devoid of calculating it could consign a bio bat cleanly by an evil-doer dumping a touch in a tank. Very few lawn companies or termite pest be in charge of companies lock their tanks, I know this for the reason that our ballet company washes these trucks, and infrequently are their any locks on the tanks. The minor the franchisee the more naive they might be. Are all these companies sure they have constant employees, and even if they are, do they assured and lock tanks and vehicles? Not just parked at the back a fence, everybody can scale a fence. If an evil-doer is eager to die for his cause, I doubt if a fence will slow down or stop him/her. An evil-doer could also order military and capture the truck or unit. Commit to memory in San Francisco when Thieves would order a pizza from Dominos and then shoot and kill the conveyance driver for the $50. 00 in cash on him? There are so many ways to use a franchised unit to do these things. We must keep the charter model, reputation of brand name and the American people. We ought to not make it easy by charitable away all this in order unreservedly for no real reason. That would only hurt all franchisees of any coordination all over the country. The American Alliance of Scientists announced that it deleted 500 pages of delicate in order on their opening review, and this is one of the most pro-freedom of address supporters in the country.

These are our most brilliant minds. We are smart adequate to be a consequence their lead. With all this said, I awe why we are putting these UFOCs on the Internet at FranData, why state agencies copy them for mere copy fees to anybody who asks and why anybody expresses an appeal to buy a authorize can get one, with lists of all franchisees, addresses and phones numbers. Since franchisors cannot discriminate based on ethnic sympathies, we must give out this in order freely. WHY? Some in order is dodgy in times of such threats. We ought to make this a new document today, not tomorrow, there is no time for committees, no time to talk about it. Just do it. If a franchisee wants to call on other franchisees they are definitely allowable to do so after belongings have tartan out and after they agree to a in print appeal along with a conditions check.
