Students Learn the Franchise Business

Posted Date: 10/07/2024

Mr. Bill Cohen, McDonald's Owner, spoke to Mr. Russell Hill's Entrepreneurship & Marketing classes to teach them about franchises. After being a pilot, Mr. Cohen changed his career path and wanted to work for himself. That's when he studied franchises & bought McDonalds in Levelland. Mr. Cohen now owns 5 McDonald's Restaurants and has 300 employees and supervisors that keep things running smoothly. He said he trains people from the ground up, helping them along the way. They can move up through the ranks and increase their pay and benefits. He strives to mold his employees to be loyal, committed, passionate people. He concluded his lesson by stressing how important it is to give back to the community that you live in, and Mr. Cohen sure does that. Thank you, Mr. Coehn for giving back to LHS students learning about the business! We appreciate you!
