The corproate sharks are in the water, focusing on NOA members and anyone tied to this page!

The reason, common sense is deteimental to their inflated stock price.

Its MUCH too late for that as to this website. As to NOA, NOA has to just stand up and fight and keep owners unified in doing things like not signing NDAs. These executives can and will be replaced if the stock doesn't turn around. Waiting them out will work.

There is no one "tied" to this website. Well, there's me but I don't count.

When someone posts anonymously it truly is. I don't know who sent in the comments unless they sign in with some ID (as some of the analysts do like our friend Howard Penny). That's why, when you post anonymously you're not asked for any information or your E-mail etc.

And, I hope everyone knows I'm a one-man shop - no employees - no family involved. In all the years this website has been in place I am the only human who's ever touched the admin pages. And it will stay that way.

Mr. Adams,
I think “tied to”, should be read as contributors. I know I have to watch how I speak to the Corp folks, because of common elements could give away my private feelings.

I do want to thank you giving us and opportunity to share our thoughts & opinions.

BBV 2023 will be a knee jerk reaction to this and will be a DISASTER for Operators.

Look for another purge of Operators who do not support it.

Contributor is a good word. I just wanted to make sure everyone knows that anonymous means completely anonymous.

I agree that the panicked suits will bum rush BBV2023 down our throats-if NOA allows it and doesn't draw and stick to a line in the sand.


Just look at what some brands are doing to their "legacy" franchisees and those "too debt ridden" to borrow even more to keep up with weak, failed management schemes to turn around sales (really they mean stock price to get their options back in the money so they can parachute out, leaving even more debt ridden franchisees).

To the above poster-

The company does not yet recognize the NOA as an agent for Operators, and probably will not until NOA membership grows further. So the NFLA needs to be the one to draw "the line in the sand", but will they? Recent emails from NFLA leadership do not support this. Change can only occur when operators are UNITED. JOIN the NOA!

Whether or not the company recognizes the NOA is irrelevant. They are paying heed, evidenced by the company's ongoing attempts to defund NOA by threatening the suppliers who support NOA.

NOA is clearly unofficially recognized and matters greatly. NOA just has to start making demands and helping franchise owners hold the line and protecting them. NOA can speak where individuals cannot for fear of retaliation.

If the company follows other franchisor tactics (like with Tim Hortons) they will start to try to intimidate owners like Blake. that's when all need to rally around him and others leading NOA.

Owners have much more power than they've been conditioned over the years to realize. There is an army of the company management's paymasters out there who will be in Las Vegas next week. The surest bet in Las Vegas is that they want to hear the opinions of NOA members.. Take advantage.
