Rich Frieder

As the former Chief Marketing Officer at Deluxe Corporation, Rich was looking forward to leveraging his experience to create more personal wealth and flexibility through business ownership.

Although his wife Adele has a wonderful idea for a children's recreational facility, they were inclined to take the route of franchising for their first venture to take advantage of established support and systems.

Ideally, Rich wants to be in a position to step away from the business by his mid-50s to start another venture, do more mission work or simply cut back.

Rich, who has strong people skills and is a very creative marketer was drawn to both business service and retail models. Recognizing there were pros and cons to each path, he quickly narrowed the field to business consulting and learning services.

Ultimately, he chose a retail franchise called LearningRx. LearningRx learning centers provide cognitive skills training that focuses on how students learn, empowering people of any age to learn faster and easier.

The demand is high. Since they opened in early January, Rich and Adele have been booked with appointments at their center located at the intersection of County Road 42 and Marketplace in Savage.

If you know of someone in the area who has a loved one who is struggling with learning barriers, the folks at LearningRx would be happy to offer a complimentary consultation. Visit their website or give them a call at 952-226-1115.

Congratulations and wishes for great success, Rich & Adele!


P.S. Another client, Baird Johnson, also opened a LearningRx center in Chanhassen recently so feel free to give pay him a visit if that's a more convenient location.
