On Mondays, podcast host Jack Monson joins Mike McDowell, Certified Facebook Ad Buyer & Business Manager, to discuss Facebook tips for Franchises courtesy of Social Joey.

This week, we're discussing Facebook's new hyper-local Neighborhoods function. For Franchise brands and Franchisees, this will allow us to reach people directly in very specific communities, small towns, and neighborhoods. We see this as a great way to get a franchisee's employees involved in engagement.

We think it will be especially powerful for Service Brands and Multi-Unit operators of any concept. And Mike shares a tip on how to use this for Franchise Development!

Thanks to Franchise Dictionary Magazine for your support. Check out the June 2021issue now!

Angela Coté is back on Social Geek to chat about leadership, taking action, and providing value.

We also dive into the end of the talking head panels, either virtual or in-person, and the growth of collaborative peer-to-peer learning. Listen to this conversation and go be awesome.

Thanks to Social Joey, Franchise Payments Network, Citrin-Cooperman, and AnswerConnect.

Hat tip to Marie Forleo #everythingisfigureoutable, Lisa Nichols, and Simon Sinek!

Here is Jack Monson’s monthly column in Franchise Dictionary Magazine for June, 2021.

If you can listen to Carolyn and Charles Thurston for more than a few minutes and not be inspired and feel good about entrepreneurship, then I’m not sure I can help you!

Carolyn and Charles share how they started Wisdom Senior Care and how they rediscovered their passion for caring for others and building businesses.

We also discuss the new IFA Black Franchise Leadership Council’s mission to educate business owners about many points including financing and funding.
