<h3><strong>You choose - are you an En·tre·pre·neur?</strong></h3>
An entrepreneur is a person who starts, organizes, and manages any enterprise,  especially a business, that requires considerable initiative and risk.  In other words, a start up business from scratch.
<ul>
	<li>Individuals willing to help launch a new venture or enterprise and accept full responsibility for the outcome; identify opportunities, allocate resources, and create value.</li>
	<li>Entrepreneurs see “problems” as “opportunities,” then take action to identify the solutions to those problems and the customers who will pay to have those problems solved.</li>
	<li>Entrepreneurial success is simply a function of the ability of an entrepreneur to see opportunities in the marketplace, initiate change and create value through solutions.</li>
</ul>
<em><strong>You think:</strong> “Why would I follow someone else’s system when I can create my own business model and infrastructure along with my own marketing, sales, and operations team”?</em>

<strong>You are a trailblazer and a risk taker.</strong>
<h3><strong>Or are you a</strong><strong> Fran·tre·pre·neur?</strong></h3>
A frantrepreneur is a cross between a traditional entrepreneur and a modern franchise owner. One who possesses the desire to be a business owner—without the desire to reinvent the wheel—by following a proven system with proven methods for the benefit of personal and professional goals.  My success is still up to me, but I have support and resources behind me whenever I need it.
<ul>
	<li>Someone who is not interested in writing a business plan and coming up with ongoing strategic plans, and/or developing a product or service, doing the demographics for a market, creating marketing plans and collateral and developing a sales process all on your own.</li>
	<li>Looking for a shorter path to business success. The world of franchising is a means to accomplish your goals of being a business owner without having to invent the wheel at every step.</li>
</ul>
<em><strong>You think:</strong> “Why would I spend years and the investment required to establish a successful brand when I could buy a franchise which provides immediate access to a successful business system and a brand name which others have already made successful?”</em>

<em><strong>You are in business for yourself, not by yourself</strong></em>
