Our first lesson in franchising!
This Tuesday, we had the opportunity to hear from Gregg McDonough, owner of the South Salt Lake AlphaGraphics store. He taught us about the basics of franchising and how to effectively run a store. Along with this advice, he helped us work out any problems we had with our initial name badge designs and will help us print them. Thanks again for speaking to us Gregg!
