Yes, it’s free. We work with hundreds of franchisors, licensing and business opportunities and even existing businesses for sale. These businesses use our services to help find qualified and educated buyers. Just as employers pay “Head Hunters” or employee placements agencies for finding them the right candidates, these companies pay us directly for helping them find the right franchisees. While our services can be invaluable, you’ll never pay anything to us, or anything additional for taking advantage of our free consultation.

No, never. The franchisors, licensing and business opportunities that we work with never add a fee to you for working with us. It is the same whether you use us or workout without us with them. They understand that when we introduce a client to them, they’ve been educated about the fundamentals of franchising and their specific offering. In short, they use our services to find qualified candidates who understand the basics of franchising and their business model and who have a strong understanding of their own skills.

Of course not. If at any time, and for any reason, you realize that you aren’t ready to pursue your dream, simply tell us and we’ll wish you luck. Not everyone should own their own business, so if you–or we–discover that you may be better suited doing something else, the process can stop or simply be put on hold.

You can, but you may eventually find out (often after many hours of research and waiting for information) that the franchises that you like may not be able to meet your goals or may not even be available where you are; that is why receiving help from a trained professional and our tools to efficiently search for availabilities can help make your search much more efficient and streamlined. We also act as advocates for you and have helped our candidates get reduce fees or increase their area of coverage at no extra costs (This is never guaranteed). Finally we have a plethora of resources such as funding assistance, franchise attorneys to help you view contracts and accounting that you can use to get set up the right way.  In short, we can save you a lot of time and energy on the search and put you in the best position with resources in starting up and launching. 

Everyone is a little different, but in general the initial call can take under 10-15 minutes or in some cases may take 1 hour. In any case, there is never a fee and when completed, you’ll have a much better understanding of what contributes to a successful business venture.

Along with the “Matchmaking” and guidance, we also are a resource center and have access to multiple franchise focused funding partners who offer SBA loans, Unsecured Business Loans, Bank Lines of Credit, HELOCs, HELOANS and a way for you to tap into your retirement WITHOUT a penalty or tax liability. We also have franchise attorneys that can help you view FDDs and Franchise Agreements and sometimes can negotiate terms. Finally, we have accounting partners who can help you choose the right business structure so you are set up from a tax perspective and also help you save money as you grow your business through tax deductions. We are a one stop path to finding your fit and setting up the right way!
