Everytable is helping its employees accumulate wealth through one of the most common paths to business ownership: franchising.
Subscribe here: freeth.ink/youtube-subscribe-toc
There are about 750,000 franchise establishments in the U.S. today.
Virtually all of the entrepreneurs who opened those franchises had to prove good credit and put down a lot of cash.
For example, opening a McDonald’s franchise requires an initial investment of at least $500,000 in non-borrowed capital. And that’s just to get started. Becoming a franchisee is often out of reach for Americans born into low-income communities without the head-start of generational wealth.
Everytable wants to remove those hurdles. The company recently started a program that trains and provides capital to employees from marginalized communities who want to work toward owning their own
This socially focused franchise model could serve as a blueprint for how other companies can grow and profit while giving workers the opportunity to gain wealth - not just a wage.

Great idea, would like to see more of this, but those with wealth tend to put their money where they can get the most return and least risk. I would like to see more CEO’s and corporations, like this one, invest in their employees as Henry Ford did. The solution to this problem is much bigger than a few companies or foundations can solve.

I have been watching your "Hard Reset" series and it's full of great ideas like this one. I find it interesting that none of these have required a "Hard Reset" and that they are often already functioning successfully, now, no "reset" required. Seems like if we focus on growing and adding to the good that we have now, like many of these ideas in your series, we will end up much better off than if we "reset" everything.

This is a excellent example of allowing people to pull themselves up rather than pulling people down. The core principal of capitalism is that you sacrifice something today so that you might benefit from it tomorrow. This is nothing socialist about this initiative, every player is making a sacrifice for a future benefit, its just that the sacrifices and benefits are not purely financial.

I know this is meant to be optimistic, but we have to remember that charities and endowments aren't reckless. There are still significant risk measures/controls in place to ensure capital preservation. If this had started a decade ago, the equity valuations would have gotten absolutely fkd during covid (I'm talking 8x multiples to 1.5x) and loans would have definitely suffered so there is a big question over risk/return Loans that are given to a small business which is likely not backed by any assets would prolly be a junior mezzanine loan which is an 8% plus interest rate. If due to be repaid in 5 years, this could mean the owner could get stuck with 1.5x the initial debt. I think this could be something interesting but probably not as optimistic as the founders try to present it

@josephkillman5979 3 жыл бұрын

You are quite the pessimist, the video never said what the interest rates are, don't assume that they are 8%. Maybe they are but making that assumption is killing the idea before you even got all the info. You present a solid argument though. They just need to make sure they do an extensive vetting process in deciding who gets the low interest loans. This is a much better alternative than having angel investors or banks supply the loans with the intention of making money on the loans. It does not sound like they are interested in making money off these loans. As long as they have a solid business plan (which the video said little about) they should be able to easily grow this to compete with nationwide franchises.

The car becomes the car of the driver. But, now the drivers are seeing that it would have been way cheaper to get a loan from a bank to buy their car. And since they are charged a fixed rate everyday, they are forced to go to work even on days they are sick. And moreover as they are not directly employed by the company, they donot even get any employee benefit or insurance. They say that, the company lures gullible poor people with zero downpayment promises. Later trap them.

This business model is nearly identical to any franchise except for where the initial startup funding comes from. Don't get me wrong it's a step in a positive direction but once you grow so big and have so many franchises your company will ultimately lose touch with your employees/franchisees and the cycle of capital abuse will repeat (Look at McDonalds). Also, what if franchisees start buying multiple sites, well this takes away from new potential franchisees from joining in now doesn't it, and the rich and more fiscally able will take advantage yet again. Perhaps if the company limited their franchisees to a district or limited sites they could own or only allowed new franchisees to build new sites. Otherwise what's the point? This model is only a win for the company not the franchisees. Like a Casino, house always wins.

"talent is equally distributed but opportunity is not"

@mankind8807 2 жыл бұрын

Wrong, it’s the exact opposite, talent is unequally distributed, but opportunity is. Millions of dollars of government innovation funds/grants and scholarships go to waste every year because people are not , claiming, applying or even looking for them. Some there are numerous funding opportunities for start ups, even for the ones with no prototypes yet. Opportunity doesn’t chase you, you chase the opportunity. You will never succeed as an entrepreneur if you come in with a victim mindset and thinking things need to be handed to you on a silver plate, this world is not fair, and you are entitled to nothing. On the other hand, talent, especially rare talent that will make you competent and stand from competition is very hard to come by. But if you have new innovative solution that will shake the market, there is opportunity for you, but if you are just another restaurant or hot sauce, these markets are saturated and have no more growth, so there isn’t as much opportunity there. Also, this dude was working as a hedge fund, he claims he doesn’t want to make money for the rich while he is the rich himself, f**in PR bs.

Normally, poor people never get the opportunity to become owners. Franchises require owners to have "X" dollars in "liquid assets" to purchase a franchise. This plan offers startup loans to poor people. That is the unique aspect. That's why the endowment funds were discussed & explained. "Big money" doesn't normally invest in "little people". They are starting slowly to see if this plan will actually work. If so, they will increase their funding.

Only problem is, that Everytable’s wage system needs to be regulated tightly. Otherwise u might raise some ppl to franchise owners, but at the same time turn them into the ‘oppressors’ and leave their personnel to be underpaid. So since we can’t expand forever (and u’d have an impossible-to-fulfill exponential growth, if u tried to make every employee their own franchise owner) there need to be high wages, or better a partition in the franchise’s business. However, that would make it an equitable community solution that wouldn’t stand up to the capitalist branding anymore. Additionally, when Everytable would become as successful as other brands, not every employee would want to make this their life’s foundation, so that’s a big problem of this solution. I see, that Everytable’s mission is in their best intentions, but probably a bit naive, with no actual control over its outcome, when franchises are still held at a rather loose capitalist standard. The idea with foundations as capital givers is great tho.

Plus, the companies will still benefit from the interest of the loan, contribute to helping a hardworking poor person’s ability to support themselves and their families, strengthen the neighborhood’s economy, and fight generational poverty, which will, in turn, improve education levels, drug addiction, and homelessness.

Franchises in Australia do something similar, they prey on immigrants (usually from India) looking to get into a business venture, such as 7/11 subway, pizza hut. They get these people into big loans to pay the franchise to fit ovens and put a name up, and on top have to pay a % of the profits. A lot of these businesses go bust, and they're stuck with the debt, and the franchise moves onto the next victim. Now watching this video with that in mind, $150k loan for some unknown brand, to sell meals in lunchboxes. The business model for this guy is finding a "mark" that this foundation will acknowledge person who needs the money for venture - take the money (putting her into debt), rinse and repeat. The off-chance its a success, well hey, win-win, like any pyramid scheme he's at the top. All the best to her though.

Kudos! It is about time people realized the best economy and culture is a blend of capitalism and socialism. Common sense at work. Literally.

What is the interest rate on those “charitable” loans? What are the contractual terms in relation to selling you business if need be?

First, yes he rocked the pink jacket. Bravo. Second, there's nothing new here. It's about how much risk investors are willing to take on. In this case, they are willing to take on more risk. The interesting part of this is that it's more risk based on an established system that has become so risk adverse that they are only lending to the rich. It's very much a case of the free market seeing the risk and seeing this risk as acceptable. This is going to happen more and more, as it should. Wall Street does not own the capital market and they have left this gaping hole of acceptable investments under serviced.

as a communist i would say this is actually a great step in the right direction to actually fight capitalism and slowly return to a socialistic system without collapsing the economy of the communities or mass organizations which actually seem pretty damn effective than even communist mass organization and revolution. the process seems slow albeit if done correctly this could effectively compete the façade of capitalism by making more people richer and someday just closing the wealth gap completely

What if capitalism still has a place? I think support for more small business is the most important part.

How is this different from any other lending based franchise, or charitable foundation? If the franchisee fails, or interest rates go up, the franchisee is still on the hook, right? The safety net of those born ahead comes from where they can fall back to to recover and bounce back. How is this salad bar changing that? I was hoping for details.

There's an idea what if the companies running these "foundations" pay their taxes and people would get these loans directly from the government with laws in place to disperse these found in a fair way.

Well, you can also present this same issue differently - people who are faster get access to capital by proving that they are fit to use it, so changing that will break the economy IMO the issue is with people inheriting that capital without proving they can use it properly

As a socialist, this seems like wealth redistribution but where the purse strings aren't controlled and conditions set by anyone but the institutions that are currently very rich and powerful i.e. the status quo is preserved.

Yeah that's not 'hacking' capitalism, that's just capitalism and that's how its supposed to work. All this oligopolic behaviour is _"Corporatism"_ and is akin more to the evils of Fascism than anything else. Capitalism is just "private ownership of the means of production." No where in the definition does it discuss policy. If a company wants to be ecologically minded or profit focused, they are still both STILL capitalist because they are both private, policy has nothing to do with the definition.
