Economy.... why timing is perfect?

Opinion polls prior to the presidential elections indicated that the issue of greatest importance to Americans was the economy. We don’t need the polls to tell us that- the economy is what we are all thinking about. To not talk about the economy at this point would be like not acknowledging the pink elephant standing in the middle of your living room.

The current economy is testing businesses. Businesses which do not have a solid concept, do not provide a quality product or service or are not managed properly are shutting down. But businesses that have good leadership, deliver consistent quality and provide value for your dollar still continue to thrive in this economy.

I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to travel extensively over the course of the last year. One thing which was constant whether I was in San Francisco, Chicago, Los Angeles, Paris and even Barcelona, is there is a line at good restaurants, seats are still filled with hungry customers and malls are filled with people carrying shopping bags. And yet the economy has recently been in a downturn. Why?

People are demanding more. The value of the dollar means more than it did in prior years. They are particular about what they buy and how they spend; they expect more.

Now more than ever a franchise may be the best investment to make—not in spite of, but because of the economy.

There are three reasons why the economy is perfect for opening your tumble & tea cafe:

1. Location
There are excellent retail locations currently available that were not available to you last year. Landlords are willing to negotiated free rental periods and lease improvements. What should you be negotiating and which retail location is favorable for your tumble & tea café? We will assist you in finding a location and provide you with a list of lease improvements beneficial for you.
2. Value
tumble & tea café charges $4.95 per child and $2 per sibling for ALL DAY PLAY.

Compare tumble & tea café to the short list of venues available for parents and children.
1. Movie admission for adult & child plus popcorn: $ 23
2. An hour gymnastic class for child: $ 15
3. Children’s Museum pass for adult & child $14
4. tumble & tea café all day pass for adult & child $4.95

3. Support
When you join the tumble & tea café family you are in business for yourself not by yourself. 1 out of every 5 small business fail with in 5 years compared to 91% of all franchises that are still in business.
