About this episode

SEND US A TEXT MESSAGE!!! Let Drs. Nii & Renee know what you think about the show!

We’re talking to Dr. Melva Pinn-Bingham, who is a board-certified radiation oncologist, and owner of 2 Cold Stone Creameries and a Subway restaurant. She’s on the show today to discuss why owning franchises is a tool she and her husband use to build wealth.

Prior to this episode, I didn’t have the best opinion of the franchising business. I have to admit, after talking to her, I am more open to this business model. Let’s say I’m keeping notes now. 

 

Things you’ll learn in this episode:

  • Dr. Melva’s entire ownership portfolio
  • Why she prefers Cold Stone over Subway and most other franchises
  • Is owning a store difficult especially with managing teenage employees?
  • How she was selling donuts at Duke University home basketball games
  • Does being a doctor have to dictate your personality?
