American Heritage

Are you ready for a change? Want to wake up every morning holding your own success in your hands?

Countless numbers of Americans dream of the opportunity to be their own boss, to own their destiny. Our countries heritage is built on the backs of small business owners. You can’t look at American history without studying the innovation and success of Henry Ford, Hershey, or Ben & Jerry’s, stories of regular everyday people fulfilling their dreams one step at a time. It is this heritage that defines Americans; it is this heritage that drives each generation forward. But, are we losing our heritage? Today are shopping malls and main streets are cluttered with large chain stores, and corporate mega marts.

Why, because we as Americans have forgotten how to dream! We would rather give up our destiny for the false security of a 401K. We tell ourselves that we don’t want the responsibilities of owning are own business so instead we work 80 hour weeks in hopes of an annual bonus or maybe even a promotion. We have shoved aside the very core of what makes us American so that we can climb the corporate latter, and maybe someday buy the house on the hill. In doing so, we have lost our identity, Instead of Community gatherings we have corporate picnics, instead of neighborhood Christmas parties, we have company holiday potlucks, instead of defining ourselves through our community we find our meaning in the logo on our polo’s.

Imagine with me, an America once again built on the backs of everyday Americans. Imagine with me a county defined by the innovation and successes of local businesses rather than by the failures of “corporations to big to fail”. Together we can rebuild our heritage, but the question is; are you brave enough to join the ranks of innovators or would you prefer to hope that by chance your 401k will payout in the end?

American Revival: Revisited

Is America ready to make a comeback? Today the Dow past 10,000 for the first time in a year! This is great news and can be seen as an indicator of better times to come. But let’s not get too far ahead of ourselves. The economy still needs you, the small business owner. The time of large corporations ruling over the American Economy is over. The time to get back to the American roots of progress, through industry and small business is before us.

Junga Juice is helping lead this charge by offering great franchise opportunities that allow Americans to successfully operate a small business. That is not to say that Junga Juice is here to save the day, we are not that conceited, but it is our true desire to see the American small business economy flourish and we want to do everything that we can to help promote the American Revival. Ultimately the success or failure of the American Revival falls on the backs of the everyday American, as it should. Our nation was built on the sweat and sacrifice of everyday people and the responsibility to rebuild the strength of our nation is now our duty.

As the smoke begins to subside the reality is that we still have more people looking for jobs then there are jobs, we still have a banking system overloaded with debt and we still have a lot of work to do. But, do not be dismayed for when there is a need there is an opportunity. If we continue to stay frozen in the fear of uncertainty then there will certainly be no progress. But if we take this opportunity to strap on our boots, and roll up our sleeves we can reawaken a movement of American prosperity. We can come out of the ashes stronger than ever before. Unfortunately, talk is cheap. We can discuses an American revival all day long, but it will not come about from blogs, committees, and tableside discussions unless those discussions turn into action. Rather you end up with a Junga Juice franchise or running for office in your local community, the point is that we must move forward. Progress will only be made if we are moving forward. Standing still is no longer a luxury that we can afford. Will you help us? Will you rebuild America with us? Come on, we have work to do!

Franchise Opportunity

The last few posts have followed a discussion about the American revival. We will return to this theme in the upcoming posts, but a recent conversation with a potential franchisee got me thinking about the franchise industry in general.

The question was asked “does owning a franchise force me to think inside the box”. In relationship to Junga Juice’s desire to help people become “free” through our own franchise opportunities I had to pause to think about this question. The short answer is a resounding NO. True, there are many franchises in the industry that simply allow people to purchase a job. I sincerely believe that the Junga Juice Franchise Opportunity is different. Our goals go beyond simply opening stores. Our very concept is outside the box in relation to other smoothie franchises. Our smoothie lounge concept is an industry first. We have taken the smoothie to a whole new level of sophistication, taste, and quality. We have taken our franchise opportunity and made it available to the average American, not just the wealthy.

Our outside the box concept does not stop with our store design and quality product. Our outside the box thinking allows us to see each individual franchisee as a person with individual dreams, goals, and desires. We do not sale a franchise we sale a lifestyle. A lifestyle that gives people the opportunity to succeed, a lifestyle that allows people to let the individuality come out. Sure our franchise opportunity comes with guidelines, and standards, but these are tools, not limitations. They do not limit your success, nor do they discount your innovations. The truth is that we live and breathe our franchise opportunity every day. We have figured out what works and what does not. The structure that we have built is not designed to reduce each individual into a mold but was created as a foundation upon which our franchisees can build their own dreams.

The Great American Contradiction

Have you ever wondered why we as Americans put so much value on business ownership? Is it a rite of passage? Is it a status symbol? Is it for wealth and glory?

I am sure that the above reasons are relevant for most people looking to own a business, but I believe at the core of the desire is the understanding that there is no greater freedom then to be your own boss. As Americans we have a lot of different views about politics, religion, ethics, and lifestyle choices, yet in the end we are all fighting for the same thing; our FREEDOM. No matter what we believe we all feel that no one has the right to take away our ability to choose. Yet, for most of us we are employed. We are told, when to wake up, when to eat launch, when to go home. We are even told how much we are worth.

As Americans it is this contradiction that drives as all to desire our own business. We say that we deserve freedom, but then we give it up for a weekly paycheck, we say that we have the right to chose our own paths, but we trade that right in for benefits. It is this contradiction that motivates us to push forward to better and bigger things such as business ownership. It is this contradiction that burns in our hearts telling us all to accept the calling, to be more then we currently are, and to achieve more than we are currently achieving. It is this contradiction that makes America great. The simple fact that we do have the choice, we can say that we want freedom or we can step out and take the freedom that we all talk about.

What do you choose?

Is it time for you to talk with Junga Juice about their Business Opportunities? Is it time for you to be the employee or the employer? You have the freedom to decide.

Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness

"Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness", These things are guaranteed to us as Americans, but what do they really mean? If we do not act upon them, if we do not take advantage of these rights, they mean nothing.

Should we forfeit these rights simply because times are hard? On the contrary, it is times like these that the American people should rise up and grab hold of these invaluable opportunities awarded to us as citizens of the United States. Now is the time to step up and conquer our fears, ignore the naysayers and recapture our rights to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.

It is often said that America is the most powerful country in the world. What gives her that authority? The American people do. Those of us trying to make a life for our families, build a business, and create strong communities. We are the ones that make this country great. If we stop trying and stop working, there will be nothing left for our children and our grandchildren. It is simply not our right to pursue life, liberty and happiness, it is our duty.

Will you join with Junga Juice to help Jump Start our American Revival? Rather you take advantage of our franchise opportunity or find some other passion we all must start living life to the fullest. We all must start experiencing the power of dreams and working hard to make them come true. Junga Juice asks you to do your part to prosper this nation, to provide for your family and to build up your community.

If you want our help we will be happy to share with you our franchise opportunity. We believe in helping the individual create success. We believe in small business, and we believe that America can make a come back. We have been hear before and will undoubtedly see hard times again, but America will continue as long as her people take hope in their right to Life Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.

Make sure you check out our website http:/www.jungajuice.com for more information on our franchise opportunity and how it can bring you success.

American Revival Continued

At Junga Juice we have been thinking a lot about the American Dream Lately. We have built our Franchise Opportunity on creating the "Junga Way of Life". This is simply our version of the American Dream.

According to Wikipedia "The American Dream is a national ethos of the United States of America in which democratic ideals are perceived as a promise of prosperity for its people. In the American Dream, first expressed by James Truslow Adams in 1931, citizens of every rank feel that they can achieve a "better, richer, and happier life."[1] The idea of the American Dream is rooted in the second sentence of the Declaration of Independence[2] which states that "all men are created equal"[3] and that they have "certain inalienable Rights"[3] including "Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."[3]"

We, at Junga Juice, wonder if perhaps the dream is beginning to fade. Not because it is unattainable, but because the American people have stopped hoping for it. A dream can only last as long as the dreamers keep believing. The American people have began to change their frame of mind, they have began to forget what makes this country great. America was founded on the Statement "We the people". The average everyday American will make or brake the future of our country. We the people hold the power to bring back the dream.

We the people, however, have started to believe that government stimulus, handouts, and oversight will solve our problems. We the people have traded in our responsibility to build community, to work hard, and to create economy for the convenience of letting the government do it for us. The problem with this plan is that while We the people wait for the government to make our lives better, more and more people are loosing their jobs and their lifestyles.

Don't worry this blog is not political, it is not Democratic or Republican, it is simply American. No mater what party lines you fall into the truth remains that as Americans, We the people, have a duty and a calling to get up each morning with the American dream on our hearts. We have a responsibility to provide for our families and secure a future for our grandchildren.

The American dream will die if We the people fail to realize that it is our job to keep it alive. Junga Juice understands this fact. We are not a large company we have the same needs, wishes, concerns and problems as the average American. We, however, refuse to let the dream die. That is why we are working hard to bring the American Dream and the Junga way of life to the people of the United States of America through our Franchise Opportunities. We may not be able to solve all the problems in America, but if we can hand one more American family a dream and a hope, at least that is a start.

American Revival

We are really excited to start this Blog. There are a lot of people today that are looking for a great Franchise Opportunity. We have the experience, the concept and the marketing plan to help anyone start their own Junga Juice Franchise.

With today’s economy we believe more than ever that what America needs is a prosperous small business boom. Today’s problems are caused by greedy oversize corporations that have to meet stock holders expectations above the needs of employees and consumers. The American backbone, however, is built on small business, fair practices and a heart eager to help both employees and consumers enjoy a more fulfilled lifestyle.

Junga Juice is working hard to bring back the American Dream. Our franchise Opportunities help create jobs, individual wealth and a lifestyle built on values based off of a sound work ethic, community involvement and good old fashion customer service.

It is time for the American People to go back to work, to bring industry into our local economies and to provide exceptional products and services for the consumer. Junga Juice is doing its part to jumpstart the American Revival by offering a sound Franchise Opportunity catered to the average everyday American. Our Growth plan is based on the individual franchisee succeeding in their unique markets. Our Goal is to bring success to the individual not to create more wealth for the wealthy.
