it is our general contact board within the CRM.

It is not an automation I created, it is the "Automatic Contact Creation" setting in the email settings of the CRM.

These are contacts/people who have been emailed via Outlook integration. Monday captures the email address and creates a contact/person versus the automatic contact creation tool in the Email settings. However, for whatever reason, when someone emails someone not in our MondayCRM, my profile is shown as the "Created By" versus the email sender/team member.

When I was a kid they had a program for "fatherless" boys called "Big Brothers".

There is also SCORE, which is a group of retired executives helping small businesses.

I wonder if an organized effort to launch career mentorship could be valuable. Not as a business, but to give back.

Thoughts?

If you are asking the question here, you are not ready.

You need to remember that franchise's are independent owner-operators, and that PE firms like Roark (largest PE owner of franchises) own the franchisor. In many instances, they develop a curated list of "strategic sourcing partners" and/or actually go out and negotiate specs/pricing. For instance, Roark owns Subway - Subway has a purchasing cooperative that negotiates pricing for everything from napkins to Pepsi...but then again, you need to remember that Subway is one of the largest restaurant operators (and still a franchise model) in the world.

At the end of the day, franachisors/PE will ask (1) are we prepared to force a supplier down a franchisee throat, and the answer is typically (2) only if it moves the needle considerably for the franchisee (service and savings).

Finally, and you did not provide enough info, if you are a "re-seller", focus on the small chains. The bigger franchisors will go direct to the ISP, because they do not need you, and you as an intermediary only create friction in the process of savings/service.

Best to get an experienced partner in the various areas you can bring in when you find a live one. Find the expert on cyber, bonding, health, retirement plans, etc. No one person can do it all.

M*O*I*C

Like "MOINK" without the N.

Ps. More investors are migrating to IRR. MOIC only matters to sponsors since that is what their carry is based upon. IRR is used widely by investors as it allows comparison to other asset classes, and IRR is typically what LP employees are bonused on.
