Post-Storm, Miami-Based Company Moves Forward with Schaumburg Franchising Event

SCHAUMBURG, Ill., Sept. 18, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Despite the natural disasters that devastated its native state and many regions where its exhibitors are based, a Miami franchise consulting company is moving ahead full force on hosting the world's first Virtual Reality franchise trade show in Schaumburg later this month.

After evacuating Florida to get out of harm's way via Hurricane Irma, The Franchise Consulting Company (TFCC), which specializes in placing budding entrepreneurs with franchise systems that best suit their lifestyle, budget, interest, etc., says The Franchise Seminar, scheduled for Saturday, September 30 and Sunday, October 1 at the Renaissance Schaumburg Hotel and Convention Center, will go on as planned. The show will have more than 60 franchisors for attendees to meet with and Virtual Reality headsets that allow attendees to "step inside" the franchises from where they are standing at the show. There will also be expert seminars on how to start and grow a business.

Show organizer Nick Neonakis, founder & CEO of TFCC, saw first-hand the devastation the hurricanes brought to his community and others. He says when exhibitors asked him if there were any plans to cancel the show, his immediate response was, "not a chance."

"We have over 60 franchisors planning to meet with hundreds of ambitious entrepreneurs who have registered for the show. We aren't going to delay someone's dream of opening a small business in their community because of the hurricanes. We've gotten through many tough times in our country by taking an attitude of not letting anything stand in our way or stop us from doing business, and this is no different," said Neonakis, author of Amazon.com No. 1 bestseller The Franchise MBA.

In addition to moving forward with the show, Neonakis and TFCC will be giving away VR headsets at no charge to any resident of Texas, Louisiana, Florida, Georgia and South Carolina who is interested in exploring franchise opportunities.

"We recognize the physical devastation Harvey and Irma have caused, but we believe it shouldn't stop anyone from following the path of entrepreneurship," he said.
