Importance of integrity and honesty in business.
“We left that kind of toxicity. We’re in ‘how to start all over again’, burn everything to the ground to build it back up and. We did it with honesty, you know, and that, that’s carried us really, really far. It’s literally just being good people and just being honest people. So, and doing good work, obviously.” – Kris Olivio
Franchising makes an impact.
“If you’re somebody who’s thinking about franchising, know that you’re going to have a huge impact on the world. I’m making that decision. You’re going to impact entrepreneurs’ lives. You’re going to impact customers that come to those entrepreneurs that you will never know. You may just see them on a royalty sheet one day. ” – Kevin Oldham
