Sometimes, hard work does equal success

Alesia Visconti2020-01-20T15:21:15-05:00January 20th, 2020|

How many times have we heard that the only secret to success is hard work?

We hear it so often that, well, it’s probably true. There is no big secret to becoming rich, famous, and successful. It literally comes down to having a dream or passion, having a plan to fulfill that dream, and doing it. That’s it. Three steps with hard, constant work being the driving factor.

So, let’s break it down. How does hard work take shape within each step?

Step 1: Have a dream, goal, or passion.

Think about your goal all of the time. Let it fill your thoughts. Think about it so much that it pushes out all the doubts. Know why you want to reach your goal and the exact reward you will receive by reaching it.

Step 2: Create a plan to fulfill that dream

Write out your plan multiple times. Figure out every detail and back-up detail in case something doesn’t go right or has to be changed. Make short-term plans (what you can do NOW), near-future plans (what you will have to do within the current year), and long-term plans (everything else that has to be done to carry out your plan). Be so thorough that you have the whole plan memorized and probably have a few of your friends annoyed because you talk about it so much.

Step 3: Do it. Carry out your plan. Adapt and change it along the way as needed. But do it.

Work harder than you ever have. Work harder than anybody else thinks is possible. Stay awake long hours. Don’t waste your time. Get help if you need it. Do anything and everything to fulfill your dream and reach your goal. Never give up. Look to the future, but live in the moment. Tell yourself you can do it and go to work.

Work hard and fulfill your dreams.

Venture X Reports Impressive Year-End Growth Totals

Coworking Space Franchise Continues Global Expansion in 2019.

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — In a year where coworking dominated the office space conversation, Venture X – an emerging, flexible office space provider renowned for its high-level, boutique hotel-style spaces – experienced a record-setting year for franchise development. In 2019, Venture X opened its doors to 10 new locations across the globe while also receiving 29 signed agreements for 61 future locations, the franchise announced Thursday.

“As we enter into 2020, the popularity of coworking spaces continues to skyrocket since the beginning of the last decade,” said Venture X President Jason Anderson. “Understandably, it makes for an attractive, but crowded, industry. Prospects want to know how your concept is different than the competition, and that’s where we’ve really excelled as a brand. By developing a deep understanding of today’s professionals and what they prioritize in a workspace, we’re able to design a uniquely-tailored, dynamic environment that resonates with members and owners.”

While many new franchisees took advantage of the Venture X opportunity last year, existing owners also played a part in opening new and/or expanding existing locations both domestically and internationally. Venture X expanded its footprint stateside – opening first-of-their-kind locations in the San Francisco Bay area, Richmond, Va., Marlborough, Mass., and Farmington, Utah – and also received signed agreements for international development in Costa Rica and Mexico City. Additionally, Venture X opened its first locations in the United Kingdom and Dubai in 2019.

Looking to 2020, Venture X has no plans to slow down – projecting to open approximately 30 locations by year’s end. Target markets for future brand development include Houston, Atlanta, Los Angeles and Sydney, Australia, to name a few.

“At the end of the day, this is another very solid step on a long, successful journey for our franchise,” said Anderson. “Much like it did 10 years ago, the industry will look very different in 2029. It’s imperative we continue to analyze the data and evolve our concept to meet the needs of everchanging workers. We have the infrastructure and team in place to make sure we do just that.”

Many Venture X franchisees have backgrounds in real estate, finance, hotels or have experience as landlords. Currently, the franchisor is seeking single-unit operators, with multi-unit development offered in the future. The brand’s initial franchise fee is $79,500 with a total investment cost ranging from $1.1M–$3.4M.

Backed by the powerhouse United Franchise Group – a group of affiliated, award winning franchise companies and brands – Venture X has the support needed to grow exponentially, both stateside and abroad, in the coming months and years.

ABOUT UNITED FRANCHISE GROUP
Led by Founder and CEO Ray Titus, United Franchise Group is home to a variety of brands, including Signarama, Fully Promoted, Experimax, Jon Smith Subs, SuperGreen Solutions, Transworld Business Advisors, Accurate Franchising, Venture X, The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill and Network Lead Exchange.

Commercial Cleaning Leader Ranked #38.

POMPANO BEACH, Fla. — Anago Cleaning Systems today announced that it has earned the #38 overall franchise ranking in the prestigious Entrepreneur magazine’s annual Franchise 500 ranking. Anago is ranked second among commercial cleaning franchises and jumped 14 spots from last year’s ranking and 30 places from 2018.

“The demand side of franchised commercial cleaning is consistent, so Anago Cleaning Systems is honored to be recognized for our growth, our innovation, our technology and our ability to build a world-class franchise system that enables hundreds of franchisees to deliver the best service every single day,” said Anago Cleaning Systems President & CEO, Adam Povlitz. “Each year, earning a higher place on this prestigious list of franchise organizations is humbling and exciting and we are grateful that our results are being noticed.”

The key factors in the franchise ranking system include costs and fees, size and growth, support, brand strength, and financial strength and stability. Each franchise is given a cumulative score based on an analysis of more than 150 data points, and those with the highest cumulative scores become the Franchise 500 in ranking order. Cleaning is considered in the “maintenance” category, Entrepreneur wrote.

“Franchises in this category are generally considered recession-proof, they cost considerably less to operate than a restaurant does, and they can often be run from home,” the magazine wrote in its Franchise 500 issue. “Maintenance has long been the second-largest category in the Franchise 500, and it appears to be constantly gaining strength even as the food category slips. There are 70 such companies ranked on our list this year, compared with 62 last year, and 14 of them made the list’s top 100.”

Anago Cleaning Systems is a pioneer of the master franchise system, which allows successful mid-career professionals to operate their own exclusive regional franchises, while allowing small businesses to invest in their success. Both levels simply focus on running their business while Anago Cleaning Systems provides assistance, guidance and critical tools to grow.
