I'm writing an article for Business Insider that helps our

owners: Where did you start in terms of your career path to
becoming a franchise owner? How have you been successful, in
terms of what specific strategies led to your success? How much
are you worth/do you make? How has COVID-19 affected your
franchise, and what changes have you had to make to your
business?
Requirements:
If you are a financially successful franchise owner, ideally
with serial franchises, please send your background details and

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 20 October
Query:
That's not the real headline for this article but it's the gist.
Seeking comments from people who manage crises, people in
disaster recovery, people who are cyber incident responders,
analysts, consultants and other professionals -- on whether 2020
has caused you to make changes to your response plans. When it
looks like the end of times, what does the response plan look
like?
Now that we're looking at an election, more political upheaval,
civil unrest in some cities, nation state interference, growing
unemployment, a continuing pandemic, a long list of natural
disasters, deaths by ransomware, and who knows what else, are
security pros writing new playbooks to prepare for the worst? If
they have, how are they changing things? If they haven't, maybe
there isn't a story here. But I'd like to know either way.
Please email me your complete comments with quote attribution
and contact info.
Thanks as always for your help!

Query:
Contact tracing in offices, businesses, restaurants and other
workplaces is yet another learn-as-you-go phenomenon. This guide
will be a look at what some companies are doing and how well
various processes and technologies are working. Looking for
sources who can speak credibly and knowledgeably on these issues
and/or provide facts, trends, guidelines, first-hand experience,
studies, analysis, and related information.
This guide will be balanced - for example, not just presenting
certain processes/technologies as only beneficial but also
discussing downside and tricky areas. Seeking sources who can
reveal pros and cons of these processes and technologies.
This is obviously such a complex issue. But I'm doing my best to
give readers an idea at least of best practices while also
informing them of the complexities. To this end, please outline
themes and best practices clearly where applicable in your
comments.
Please email complete comments with quote attribution and
contact info.
