Alcoholics Anonymous Isn’t Working!
July 21, 2008
Alcoholics Anonymous Isn’t Working! well not well enough anyway. Unfortunately, very few in the fellowship seem to care. It’s a kind of, I’m all right jack’, type of attitude, and they see it as the program is working for them so the problem of recovery (or lack of it) is down to others non-commitment. You see, for those who get it, well, they wouldn’t change a thing, but those who don’t simply leave often never to be seen again. The AA program fails more than it succeeds, and if you speak to the many who couldn’t grasp it’s message, they will all tell you that the god thing, the religious aspect (although no member refers to it as that), is what made them walk away. Isn’t it therefore time for the AA program to be rewritten in such a way which that it draws more members into its recovery bosom and has a more open though still structured program of healing? The health and wellbeing of desperate alcoholics are craving for it!

Franchising is nowadays available in almost all industry - no matter what type of shop you want to open, a franchise is always worth looking into.
The biggest benefit of opening a franchise compared to a regular shop is that by “buying” the brand name people will already know about your shop’s concept and you will get more customers from the start and advertising costs are also reduced through this system.
Franchising has now also taken over the fitness industry. You can find many fitness centers that are operated as franchises. Thereby customers also know what to expect as those types of fitness centres should be similar across the country as to their offerings. Examples of Fitness franchises include Snap Fitness, which can be found in 28 states around the US, Athletic Republic or Relax the back. All these are operated as franchises.
If you think about opening your own business a franchise is possibly a good way to start, however, you have to invest a lot of capital in the start and also knowledge about the industry and the area is important. Many franchisees make the mistake of not education themselves enough before they start out with their business which then often doesn’t make it through the first 5 years. Another common mistake that is made is underestimating the competiton. As having a healthy and well shaped body is very important nowadays you will face a lot of competition in the fitness industry. Therefore, do your homework before starting a fitness franchise.
