Veterans are getting a bad deal with the government shutdown and the “If I can’t have all the government open, I won’t open any of it” attitude that that is ringing out of the White House, but Marco’s is doing what they can to help vets.
Marco’s Pizza is offering a chance for veterans to own their own pizza franchise. After all the leadership qualities taught in the armed forces is prefect for running a Marco’s Pizza franchise. Since there aren’t a lot of jobs in our terrible economy, some soldiers returning from active duty may just want to create their own.
Marco’s is now offering a $5000 discount off their franchise fee for veterans. That’s a great deal for those who have fought for our freedom.
There are more than 66,000 franchises in America owned by veterans. These veteran owned franchises generate over $40 billion in national GDP. There are three reasons, Marco’s cites, that veterans are well suited to be a Marco’s Pizza franchise owner.
1) Leadership – High stress situations, working with a chain of command are two areas where military leadership training is useful when becoming a Marco’s Pizza franchise.
2) Teamwork – Just as in the armed forces where you rely on others, especially the man next to you in battle, you also have to rely on others as a Marco’s Pizza franchisee. You have to rely on other franchisees who will share their best practices and you will rely on the men and women at the Marco’s Pizza headquarters who will give you the support you will need to be a successful franchisee.
3) Self-Discipline – As a vet, you really do understand the concept of self-discipline. This is a very valuable asset in the business world. As a Marco’s Pizza franchisee, you will be leading your own crew and marketing your store every day in your community. You must be a self-starter and you must have mastered the art of self-discipline before the day you sign your Marco’s Pizza franchisee agreement.
Marco’s currently has almost 400 stores in 29 states and their expansion plans are going full force. There are lots of territories still available.
