New Fast Food Franchise Woody's Chicago Style Awards Franchisee Of The Year

Bill Allen of Medford, Oregon left his job as a District Sales Manager for a major soft drink company in the fall of 2004 to become a Woody’s Chicago Style Franchisee. Bill purchased a struggling location at the Lowe’s Home Improvement Center in Medford and opened in October of 2004.

Bill’s focus on marketing and customer service instantly started creating one of the most interesting success stories of the Woody’s Franchise short history. Bill constantly thinks of new and innovative ideas to promote his Hot Dog concession. Normally a concession in a relatively small population base like Medford does not reap large sales numbers, but Bill has managed to entrench himself within the community and draw customers in that would normally not visit his host location.

In a market showing downward sales trends and with limited population (69,000), Bill showed a 26% icrease in his sales last year. He even posted increases in the slower winter months that normally show declines in sales volume.
Because of his extraordinary efforts, consistent top ten sales performance, impeccable compliance to the franchise system and creative marketing strategies, Woody’s Chicago Style proudly named Bill Allen of Medford, Oregon as their Franchisee Of The Year for 2005. Bill was presented the award at the recent Franchise Convention in Denver, Colorado.

Congratulations from the staff at Woody’s to Bill for a job well done. If you’re ever in Southern Oregon make sure you visit the Medford Lowe’s Home Improvement Center and have the best hot dog on the planet, courtesy of Bill Allen and Woody’s Chicago Style!
