After loosing their jobs, one local couple decided to do something for themselves, so they looked into franchises and found one that caught their eye- the “Fun Bus”- it’s a children’s fitness center on wheels that travels around to different schools in a bright green school bus complete with instructors, gymnastic mats, and other fitness equipment. Co-owner John Geraci says there was a lot involved in the beginning, but the franchise helped him and his wife with the support they needed to get it off the ground. Of course, starting a business in a tough economy is always risky, but there is help available for aspiring business owners- the Small Business Association and the Women’s Business Development Center are both great resources that offer assistance. To contact the “Fun Bus,” you can visit their website: www.funbuses.com or call 856-853-4BUS.
