How to Launch Your Franchise During a Pandemic

About The Episode

Join Nigel Dawson and his guest Calvin McNeely as they talk about billboard marketing, learning how to work with consultants, boosting the businesses of smaller communities, franchising during a pandemic, and so much more. In this episode, Calvin also explains his business, Runningboards Marketing, and their two-hour block system of advertising. For Calvin, if there’s one thing that an entrepreneur must hold in mind to help the business push through hurdles, it’s clarity with the business’ purpose. Knowing clear and sound that you’re doing something good for your stakeholders can provide you and your business the drive to achieve, sustain, and cement its place in the game.

In this episode you will learn:

  • Coming up with DAV®, a digital mobile billboard.
  • Short-term contracts on repeat – subscription advertising.
  • “We’re going to be the leader; we’ll set the pace first!”
  • What drives us every single day…
  • On what helps the business push through barriers.
