Regardless of the economy, people will still need to eat hamburgers, buy caskets, and visit the hair salon.  If you’re out of a job, you should find a way to serve these businesses or open a franchise business, such as a LSS (Limited Service Sandwich) chain, that works better in a down economy.

Today, in a world where food prices are soaring daily, it is still possible for people to eat-out at a Quiznos restaurant without spending a fortune. When we talk about Quiznos, we are not talking about fast food we are talking about food fast. There are over 5,000 Quiznos franchise restaurants throughout the United States, Canada and Europe. People have come to love Quiznos delicious toasted, fresh sandwiches, made to order. Quiznos is the fastest growing fast food franchise company in the country.

It is much too late to get in on the ground floor, but never too late to take advantage of a solid promise to help you make money. If you want to fall into the category of the 70% of franchise owners making money serving Quiznos brand tossed sandwiches to millions of hungry people, they will help you get started. Quiznos is an award winning company, because of ordinary men and women, who took a risk to buy and open a self-operated Quiznos franchise.

These men and women work their businesses, hire and train good staff and follow the rules of good business management practice. These same Quiznos franchisers seek advice from their Quiznos representatives, home office and fellow franchisers. Their voices join with those who can say, ‘I am making good money’. The dedication of these owners has raised Quiznos to the high position it holds today, which is to offer the best food in the fast food industry.

The MSPA ranked Quiznos number one, in 2007, as the fast food chain with the shortest delivery time. That is the amount of time it takes from placement of order to delivery of food. In addition, Quiznos franchise restaurants received a ranking in the top 30 of the top 500 restaurant chains in 2007. Quiznos franchise restaurants also received awards for Top Food, Top Facilities, Top Services and Top Overall, among fast food restaurant chains. However, Quiznos is not, in the truest sense, a fast food restaurant, because the customer orders the sandwiches before they are prepared. Quiznos is really a food fast restaurant and preparation of sandwiches does not begin until after the customer orders the food.

Why not investigate today and learn how you can become a Quiznos Franchise Owner and be part of the fastest growing restaurant chain in the country. People still need to eat and more people are dining in sandwich, soup and salad restaurants than ever before. Be a winner and serve your community as a Quiznos franchise owner.

In a non-scientific survey poll, Mr. Poll.com, an online poll site including over 100,000 polls on thousands of subjects. Voters were asked which is better, Quiznos or Subway? 1,164 voters responded with 61% voting for Quiznos and 38% voting for Subway. In reviewing results on 25 additional sites the results were less dramatic and the main factor was food preference. The verbal comments on the websites reviewed support the belief that the popularity of fast food restaurants is based more on taste preference and less on food quality, safety, cleanliness, preparation and nutritional value.

The following comparison is made based on the business side of the question, which is better Quiznos or Subway?

• Both companies grant name rights/sell rights of products and services.
• Both companies offer a training program: Subway 2 weeks/ Quiznos 4 weeks
  1. Marketing
  2. Operations procedures
  3. Technical training
  4. Management techniques
  5. Financial management skills
• Both companies offer ongoing training and support from the beginning
  1. Uniform Franchise Offering Circular (UFOC)
  2. Franchise Agreement Contract
  3. Site Selection choices and advice
  4. Lease negotiations assistance
  5. Design, Construction and Contractor assistance
• Both companies hold introductory seminars and workshops

Some distinctions are:

• The Quiznos website offers full franchise information, basic financial information and has very informative video  presentations
• Subway’s website offers only basic information and an application form
• Quiznos offers a 24 hour help line; an interactive website for franchisees
• Subway only offers a local development agent to get additional information not on the website
• Quiznos offers two week  interactive training sessions online; one week at Corporate  office and one week training in a Quiznos restaurant
• Subway only offers two weeks training-50% classroom, 50% in a restaurant

While both companies provide the Uniform Franchise Offering Circular, which includes financial reports, number of units and other disclosure information required by law it is people who make the real difference in building relationships. Quiznos provides excellent direct operational training in how to run a business, deliver a good product and provide the service which leads to success. Quiznos paves the way for franchisees to deal competently with real estate issues, design, construction and selection of site, and the marketing of their franchise.

Why is Quiznos a better company than Subway? Quiznos has a dedicated franchise network of experts available 24 hours a day. The recent restructuring of Corporate Officials is moving the company toward the top position in the fast food/quick service industry. The newest members of the corporate team including the President have spent years in the fast food industry with some of the world’s largest fast food industry providers.  Quiznos has an impressive team of corporate men and women dedicated to guiding franchisees to success.

Franchising of profitable businesses is not limited by any geographical boundaries. These franchise businesses offer a product people need or want to purchase. Among the basic needs that all people possess is the need for food. Everyone wants to eat and everyone needs to eat and this has led entrepreneurs from around the world into the fast food market. People who become successful entrepreneurs are just ordinary folk with the determination to organize and manage a business and accept the risk and responsibilities associated with ownership.

Every year, about 25% of new start up business operations close or change hands. The number increases to about 50% within five years based on data from the Bureau of Census for the US Small Business Administration. Not all businesses that close within five years are failures. Profitable businesses sometimes close for reasons other than failure and these are counted in the statistics, which implies the percentages are not “cut in stone” statistics.  Likewise many of those businesses, which are true failures, failed due to insufficient knowledge of financial management skills. Quiznos franchise owners have the advantage of a success oriented business model which avoids such pitfalls.

A person taking on a Quiznos franchise is trained in financial management and all aspects of managing a restaurant business.  A Quiznos franchise owner has chosen the right brand, the right product, and the right people to train, support and guide the owner toward becoming a successful entrepreneur. The Quiznos team assists the owner in the choice of a location for the restaurant and supports the owner in dealing with real estate decisions.  A Quiznos team member is on hand to support the owner in securing a loan and choosing the design, construction and choice of a contractor to build the restaurant.

The owner has the support and advice of the Quiznos team in the selection and ordering of equipment and supplies. These experts also provide marketing materials and training in the delivery of good marketing campaigns.  Quiznos owners have the help of team members as they begin the process for hiring good employees, an important key to running a successful restaurant.

The owner has constant guidance and support during the preparatory stage and the Quiznos team is with the owner on opening day.  Quiznos has a three part training program beginning with an online interactive course followed by additional training at the Corporate Offices in Denver. Each franchise owner has the experience of managing a genuine Quiznos restaurant for one week as part of the training process.

The Quiznos team provides a help line and an interactive website for owners to ask advice, get answers to questions and seek guidance for resolving restaurant problems.

Since 1957 the fast food industry has grown into a dominant player in the world of franchising. Two of the key players today are Quiznos and Subway who are in a head-to-head competition to secure their market share of the fast food franchise industry.

Quiznos entered the franchise world in 1981 and has 4,743 franchise owners in the United States, Canada and Europe and will open 400 additional franchises in the next year. In October 2007, Mystery Shopping Providers Association’s (MSPA) announced 10,000 mystery shoppers in 25 states named Quiznos as the fastest growing among the fast food restaurants. Quiznos was named the leading Quick Service Restaurant in wait time performance in 2007.

Fast food/quick service restaurants offering franchises market their products as being made with premium quality real ingredients and provide nutritional information for their menu items. Most restaurant franchises are doing well by responding to the demand for better food in terms of nutritional value. Even during this period of economic depression people continue to eat out and people will continue to do so. The ups and downs in restaurant ratings is naturally enough closely related to the personal preferences of customers craving good quality food fast; Quiznos is leading the field in that respect.

Why are Quiznos franchises doing well in the midst of a falling economy and are now one of the best franchise opportunities available today? The answer is that through years of experience Quiznos has learned what works and what doesn’t. Quiznos has learned that adherence to high standards in quality, freshness, safety; variety, cleanliness and wait time, are what the term “good food” means to customers. This is why Quiznos rolled out the now famous “Sammie’s” sandwiches. Many people cannot resist Sammie’s and will go out of their way to find a Quiznos restaurant. This is why so many customers state, “Quiznos has the best food.”

Through experience Quiznos has learned the importance of keeping connected with all their franchisees through newsletters, meetings, regular direct contact with field operations representatives, and a 24 hour help line. They provide an interactive website and national and regional marketing campaigns for franchisees. Every Quiznos franchise owner has a local contact trained to provide assistance right from site selection to the new store opening.

Franchisees that choose Quiznos are choosing a company which provides ongoing operations support, and quality assurance. Quiznos franchisers offer a proven business system behind quality fast food products. The business system minimizes the risk for franchisees and improves their chances for success. Quiznos provides evaluation of operations, marketing, business management and support for new promotions and new product roll-outs
