Could someone explain the joke at the end of my previous post to Worried Bird Window Washing founder Cameron Carson? With all of the serious ramifications of his sale of his franchisees and their agreements to the controversial & embattled Phoenix Franchise Brands, the only thing Carson responded to was a joking claim that he had given permission to disclose his selling out the franchisees who built his franchise brand. by Sean Kelly
A follow-up my previous post
One anonymous current or previous insider responded:
Cameron Carson is a very deceptive person who is focused on one thing:
Cameron Carson
That might explain why Cameron Carson has not responded to any of the serious issues regarding his arguable betrayal of his franchisees’ trust or their future well-being.
His only response regarded what he misinterpreted as me saying he gave me permission to post what he’s been hiding.
And even then, he got it wrong.
In my earlier post, I reported that I had sought an interview with Worried Bird Window Washing franchise founder about his sale of his company (and I assume his franchise agreements) to the controversial & embattled Phoenix Franchise Brands.
Phoenix Franchise Brands has been the center of a raging controversy, in large part, what happens to current and future franchisees once a franchisor (like the appropriately named Worried Bird) is acquired.
Cameron and I had not dealt with one another before this, but we were 1st degree connections on LinkedIn which allows us to exchange direct messages.
I took Cameron by surprise when I messaged him to request an interview about the sale of Worried Bird Window Washing to Phoenix Franchise Brands.
He had been posting on social media for weeks that he was THRILLED that his company had been acquired by “a large firm chomping at the bit to take it to the moon.”
While he hadn’t named the buyer in his public posts, I assumed he had told his franchisees who would now holds their franchise agreements – and their financial future – in its hands.
He texted back that he had only told his franchisees he had sold the franchisor.
He hadn’t disclosed the buyer.
When I replied I received an error message that the message could not be sent.
In fact, I could no longer view his profile.
He had unlinked & blocked me.
I went to check his Instagram post that I had viewed moments earlier.
He had changed it from Public to Private.
His announcement is still indexed in Google search, but is no longer visible on Instagram.
I would have at least entertained a discussion with Cameron Carson about whether I’d post the news of the sale (which he, himself, unwittingly confirmed).
I would have considered holding off until he had the chance to make the internal announcement to his franchisees and “great team.”
But he had flown off like a frightened birdie.
Like a toddler who thinks that if he covers his own eyes the world can’t see him, Cameron Carson blocked out my questions and dashed my hopes of engaging in an adult discussion.
Since my attempts to message him resulted in the error message: “Message Could Not Be Sent,” I concluded my post with a joke:
So I sent him a final direct message on LinkedIn:
Hey Cameron:
Do I have your permission to share our conversation publicly?
If yes, please reply “Message Could Not be Sent.”
Thanks!
Evidently, Cameron Carson thought he had caught me lying about him giving me permission to post the information.
He restored our LinkedIn relationship long enough to send me this message, then immediately unlinked so I couldn’t reply:
