SPECIAL REPORT
NFCA tool useful to compare store performance
RLS to attend
2010 McDonald's Worldwide Convention
|
|
Richard L. Sparkmon & Associates
will be exhibiting at the 2010 McDonald's Worldwide Convention with
our fellow members of the National Franchise Consultants Alliance (NFCA), an elite group of eight
accounting firms across the country who specialize in providing
accounting services to McDonald's franchise owners.
One of the valuable benefits you receive from being the
client of a NFCA firm is access to our Store Comparison Report, which
gives you the ability to compare your own financial information to
more than 2,500 other restaurants across the country.
You can compare your financial information to others
using the following criteria:
- By
specific month or trailing 12 months;
- By
sales volume;
- By
location type, e.g. free-standing, Oil Alliance, Highway, SPOD;
- Building
ownership, e.g., McDonald's, franchisee, unknown;
- By
region; or
- By
state.
Below is an example of a Store Comparison Report
run for January 2010 for "All" stores. The report
provides data by sales volume for the more than 2,500 stores in the
database.
We look forward to seeing you in April at McDonald's Worldwide
Convention in Orlando, Fla. In the meantime, if you would like more
information about the Store Comparison Report, please give us a call.

Who will be the Voice of McDonald's?
|
|
McDonald's employees have multiple talents and some of
these talents will be showcased during the 2010 McDonald's Worldwide
Convention. For the third year, 1.6 million employees in 118
countries were invited to try out to be the Voice of McDonald's. The finalists
will compete for the top prize of $25,000. McDonald's created
this competition to show its commitment to its employees through the
ultimate, international language of music, and offer them a
world-class opportunity to achieve their dreams. It's one of the ways
the company makes McDonald's a great place to work, delivering the
core attributes of its Employee Value Proposition of
"Family/Friends, Flexibility and Future." Through the Voice
of McDonald's and other programs that celebrate the spirit and
talents of our people, we also recognize their skills to deliver
simple, easy and enjoyable experiences for our customers.
