McDonald's leaves dealing with the Minimum Wage Hike to Franchisees

If you haven't figured it out yet, this site is all about the great people who own their own business. It's mainly about the owner of small and very small (one or two people) type businesses and news that affects them.

I'm also about "locally owned" businesses and that includes, "local" franchise owners.

Today I'm sharing a bit about a corporate giant in the fast food industry; and the local franchise owners who have pledged loyalty in carrying out their policies and expect corporate support in return.

What does that have to do with me and my small business you may ask? Plenty, I'd say. As a contractor or busy business person on the go, you probably frequent these places often.



Fast food concerns are many times owned by hard working, tax paying people earnestly employing your neighbors; creating local jobs.

A leader in fast food, (Corporate) McDonald's has announced it will not lobby against the $15 (+?) minimum wage increase, leaving their franchisees to deal with this on their own. This action may lead others in the industry to do likewise.

If you are an owner of any type of fast food concern, restaurant or similar hospitality business, feel free to contact me using the contact form on this page. 

 I have options which will definitely help you to remain profitable! I work mainly with businesses in the northernmost counties in Wisconsin, however, many of my services are available nationwide. 

 Contact me to find out more.

First of all, let me say this. I've always loved small business and having been in business myself for many years, I believe that there is nothing better. I encourage everyone to have some sort of business regardless if it only part time of a full fledged company employing many people.  I'm a membership rep for NFIB and am pleased to visit many business owners on a daily basis. To me NFIB membership is essential for any business person to learn about the issues, take as little time as he or she wants to invest in voting on them and then go about their business with the peace of mind that NFIB is working on their behalf. NFIB membership dues is whatever the business owners feel they can afford (up to $15K). It's more important to have a member than a dues which would hinder membership by very small businesses. Everyone's "voice" is important and NFIB is the "voice of small business" in every state capital and in Washington D.C.  That...

I'm pleased to be the NFIB rep in my area helping local business owners to know the issues, vote on the issues and then find out how their elected officials voted on these same issues that they voted on. As members, business owners really do have a voice in what happens in their state and on the federal level. If you are a business owner and are not yet a member of NFIB, feel free to contact me and I will help you or connect you with someone in your area.  For anyone who is looking for an awesome career which is rewarding and really does make a difference in the lives of business owners and our country, please read and respond to this advertisement below:

Ter Scott of Ask LLC introduces new program to Celebrate Small Business in Northern Wisconsin

  Location Celebration of Small Business What is it? Every week North Wisconsin Small Biz celebrates a northern Wisconsin location and up to 20 businesses (first come first serve basis) in that location. We present a post listing your business (with 19 others) which is linked to your business Facebook page.   Viewers are asked to click on your link, go to your page and “Like” it. This creates more traffic to your Facebook page where you can offer them ads and information. They are also asked to like the post, comment, tag one person and share. This exponentially increases traffic overall. Each week we’ll randomly choose a winner who will then personally visit your place of business (and the other 19) to collect their prize; something you’ll commit to giving to the winner priced from $10 to $20 retail. Many businesses offer gift certificates to make this easier.  Visit our Facebook Page, NORTH WIS SMALL BIZ here.  What do you do as a business? First, you’ll...
