John Mauldin’s Summary
For over forty years, I have been involved in business development, primarily in the field of franchising. I began a direct mail business at age 12 and enjoyed tremendous success marketing a variety of business and information products.
At the age of 16, I took on my first consulting project: establishing a direct mail and
retail business for the manufacture and sale of rubber stamps and the brokering of printed business cards and social invitations (That client's grandchildren still successfully operate the business today!).
My first large-scale project was with a leading US hotel chain. Though they had hundreds of locations inside the US, they had no overseas presence. In the ensuing four years, I was responsible for growing the franchise to virtually every corner of the globe.
I returned to the US to establish an agency in midtown Manhattan to work with companies interested in expanding through franchising.
Over the years, I became involved in numerous start-ups including ERA Real Estate, Fantastic Sam's Family Haircutters, Popeye's Fried Chicken, Downtowner Hotel Corporation, Cottman Transmissions, Jiffy Lube, BlockBuster Video and many more.
Realizing the tremendous platform the internet could provide to any business seeking to expand, I decided to "test" my marketing expertise by establishing my first website in 1996 and was able to capture a consistent five-figure income beginning with the first month of operation. Since that time, I have worked with numerous "brick and mortar" companies seeking to establish an online presence.
I have traveled and lectured for many years on various aspects of marketing and franchising and now conduct seminars on leading-edge social marketing methodologies. In conjunction with my associates, Denise Huginnie and Bob Ross, we operate schools to teach business brokerage and franchise consulting.
