Franchising
Fornication is a - DrugFree - Event for Men(21+)
Nov 15 2025
And now a few words from your Fornication Daddy
Franchising? Yes. Fornication is officially Franchising!
Why? Because I can’t be everywhere. I know that’s hard to believe. lol.
So the good part of franchising is that now we can grow to the cities we couldn’t grow to before, based on my schedule.
It all began a few months ago when we were debating what to do with Houston because I couldn’t grow the numbers there.
I spoke to our business advisor, Dave, and we both came to the conclusion that rather than close the Houston party, it was a better idea to turn the Houston party over to Matt Coven and see what he could do with it.
Well, as they say, “the proof is in the puddin”. By the second party, under Matt’s supervision, he had doubled the numbers. Local promotions work!
That’s when the franchising conversations begin in earnest. Matt and I took everything we learned in turning the party over to Matt in Houston and we’ve built a set of franchise guidelines and bylaws. These are designed so that the parties can be replicated in nearly every city.
It takes a lot to have a party be a success, and we are committed that each of our franchisees be successful.
But we don’t do it alone. We have never done it alone. It’s with your continued support of showing up and spreading the word that Fornication continues to grow and thrive.
Franchising is just the latest action we’re taking to secure the future of Fornication
What does the future look like? What changes will there be?
For you as a guests’ perspective, there will be very little changes , more of the changes are internal back of the house items
The first thing that we did was change the look of the flyers. It was time and I’m thrilled with the new design. (Big shout out to Trick for these designs, he and I collaborate well together!)
What will NOT change:
All parties will still be on one website and all tickets will be on the same EventBrite account. This ensures that if you decide you want to move your ticket from one city to another you can easily do so!
We will soon have a new email manager staff person to handle ALL email in a timely manner.
Who is managing which Franchise?
Personally, I’m retaining Fort Lauderdale as my only every other month event and the following once a year events: New Orleans, Timberfell as well as the MAL party in DC. I have assistants in each of these cities to ensure nothing falls through the cracks and of course, steady growth.
Matt Coven is now our Franchisee in Houston & Dallas.
I am in talks with potential Franchisees in DC, San Francisco, Portland, Upstate NY and Providence RI. Hoping for LA, PS, Columbus, Tampa, NYC, Toronto…. and lots more!
The following are the top requirements I have for Franchisees:
Must be DrugFree (for the sake of this context we do not consider alcohol or pot a drug)
Have a mentality of “it’s not about me. What am I/we providing for the community?”
Have the ability to create a posse, a group of friends around you that you can count on locally who help and support your endeavors and the community. Be passionate about building and expanding community that works!
Welcome to the next faze of the community YOU ASKED me for. My job and intention has been and will always be to ensure your safe fun space continues… onward…..
