Does
Adbikes Media sell franchises?
The Federal Trade Commission has specific criteria
that are used to determine if a business relationship
is a franchise. If you buy an advertising medium
from anyone you must be aware of the true nature
of your business relationship. Failure to do so
can lead to serious trouble.
From the Federal Trade Commissions web site:
B. "Traditional Franchises": There
are three definitional prerequisites to coverage
of a business-format or product franchise (Parts
436.2(a)(1)(i) and (2)):
1. Trademark: The franchisor offers the right
to distribute goods or services that bear the
franchisor's trademark, service mark, trade name,
advertising or other commercial symbol.
2. Significant Control or Assistance: The franchisor
exercises significant control over, or offers
significant assistance in, the franchisee's method
of operation.
3. Required Payment: The franchisee is required
to make any payment to the franchisor or an affiliate,
or a commitment to make a payment, as a condition
of obtaining the franchise or commencing operations.
(NOTE: There is an exemption from coverage for
required payments of less than $500 within six
months of the commencement of the franchise (Part
436.2(a)(3)(iii)).

Because Adbikes Meida does not allow our customers
to use our trademarks or require you to make payments
of commissions or royalties we can never be designated
as having sold a franchise. It is as simple as
that.
Why have we chosen a different
route instead of selling franchises?
Although we possess all of the ingredients necessary
to successfully franchise our concept, we have
chosen a different route. Our goal is to enable
others to start their own business using our proven
system without imposing our methods, trademark,
and pricing. Franchising has been for many owners
of new concepts a fantastic way to expand; however,
we do not believe in imposing anything onto entrepreneurs
who share similar traits appropriate to a leader
who usually will never compromise his/her individuality.
Franchising is a legal way to ensure that the
owner of the concept remains king of his castle
while imposing onto his nobles, fees and royalties
during their entire duration of their agreement.
We feel it is unjust and ultimately leads one
to feel injustice, victim of inequality.
