The process

Here’s how we'll work together to find your ideal franchise opportunity.

 
Franchising consultation

Initial consultation

Step 1 is vital in our journey: identifying your personal dreams and goals. I'll guide you by asking targeted questions, assembling your feedback, and developing a model that you can use to evaluate any franchise opportunity.

Finding your franchise

Match and connect

Step 2 involves putting that model to work. I’ll sift through franchises to find those matching your specific, individualized criteria. This narrows the field to a few that fit you like a glove. I’ll connect you with those franchisors so you can begin your research.

Franchise due diligence

Due diligence

Step 3 is when the ball enters your court. Through phone calls and in-person meetings with franchisors and their franchisees, you'll get to know much more about each business. You’ll be ready to make an educated, informed decision. We'll also discuss financing options.

Franchise investigation

Step 4 is decisive: selecting the franchise you want to own. After your thorough research and investigation, you'll be able to focus in on the franchise company that's perfect for you. With all of your questions answered and financing arranged, you’ll be confident that you've laid the groundwork for success. You'll sign the franchise agreement and we'll celebrate your victory!
