Formal swim lessons have long been an integral part of American childhood. Many of us learned to swim at a friend's house, at the lake, or possibly had an instructor at a facility. During shutdowns over the last couple of years, swim lessons across the country halted. Public swim facilities were closed, and due to social distancing requirements, even at-home lessons were not practical.
What a way to Take Our Mark leading into 2023! After two years of no in-person conferences, we are happy to say our 2022 Annual Conference at The Wigwam was a huge success. We had over 150 attendees and had so much fun getting together with our Streamline family in Arizona.
On Sunday, we welcomed our franchisees with an Arizona-themed welcome bag with an assortment of goodies related to the 5 Cs of Arizona. Throughout the afternoon, we talked more about the past year and what is to come next year, our marketing goals and the new campaign, goals for the CSC. Some of our Franchisees spoke about their success and their goals to continue growing in 2023. To wrap up the night, we had a western welcome party with a beer burro (everyone's favorite!), western band, and craft table to make your own custom-branded jackets!
On the heels of 2022, we can’t help but feel a tad reflective and introspective about our brand’s success. Speaking of introspection, it’s also the same process we use to evaluate our lives and assess whether we need to make changes for the future. Many people even use these thoughts to make resolutions. If you find yourself pondering a career transition of sorts, the new year is a great time to make a leap!
Over the last two and a half years, the U.S. has seen some major changes to the landscape of the workplace. The shift has taken many members of the workforce from office jobs to self-employment. We may very well be witnessing the largest job migration since the Industrial Revolution. In the past three decades, the relationship between employer and employee has dwindled down to a strained relationship at best. Automation of tasks and large-scale layoffs have left employees with a sense of insecurity that has driven them to feel little loyalty to their employers. These changes in the climate of the workspace are largely responsible for the exodus we’ve been seeing from corporate America to franchise ownership.
Ever wonder if you’re cut out for the entrepreneurial life? One that would offer you the freedom and flexibility that comes with being your own boss? Now, more than ever, people across the U.S. are considering this very question. On the heels of an unprecedented shift in the workplace, employees across the country are reexamining their career choices, as well as their goals for the future. Through these transitional times, franchising has remained incredibly resilient – even amid economic headwinds. That’s why so many are choosing to strike it out on their own and open a business of their own through franchising.
