The Purchasing Excellence Series May 1997
What criteria does McDonald's use to pick their sites?
Why might one side of a street be a good location but not the other?
What determines whether an additional store or office is needed in a given area?
By knowing the answers to these questions, you will begin to understand the secret of a great location. A location that will allow your business to thrive and grow. By reading this book, you can achieve the best possible site.
How can you be sure that you negotiated the best lease terms possible?
Are you nervous about personally guaranteeing that ten-year lease, anddid you take advantage of every possible way to limit your risk?
Are there any hidden "surprises" waiting for you?

By answering these questions correctly, business professionals will increase their chances of success, and limit their risk. This book will provide you with the keys to negotiate the best possible lease terms.

In our capacity as Landlord/Property Manager and Leasing Agent, we have seen countless well-meaning and relatively smart business people struggle to make ends meet. Although Joe Pizza Maker produces the best pizza on this side of the Atlantic, if he picks the wrong location, or makes any of a hundred possible bad lease decisions, his chances for success may be vastly diminished... or even doomed from the start.

You can obtain the knowledge that will increase the accuracy of your decisions and make the sometimes difficult world of business a bit easier....
