My Podner in this episode is Cheryl Mullin and she’s going to talk with us today about Financial Performance Representation! Man, if that doesn’t make you salivate then you are no franchisor in my books. This can be a very dense topic but I am confident that Ms. Cheryl help us demystify this topic and maybe even help us pull our heads out from underneath the covers every time it is mentioned. But who knows, she may even have us running for the hills even faster.
