𝗢𝗣𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗦 & 𝗖𝗛𝗢𝗜𝗖𝗘𝗦 are what FranChoice is all about. I work with people who are excited about the thought of business ownership, but they don’t have “the big idea,” nor do they want to “recreate the wheel.” They’re more the “plug and play” type. Give them a sound business model and let them execute! 

𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗗𝗢 𝗜 𝗗𝗢? 𝗛𝗢𝗪 𝗗𝗢 𝗜 𝗛𝗘𝗟𝗣? 
You might think of me as a matchmaker – the business kind! Basically, I match good people with good franchise businesses based on your goals, skills, interests and investment level. I coach and guide individuals through an investigation process so they can make a sound business decision – whether that’s a yes or a no. 

It’s 𝗙𝗥𝗘𝗘. I try to make it 𝗙𝗨𝗡. My goal is that you have a 𝗙𝗜𝗥𝗦𝗧-𝗖𝗟𝗔𝗦𝗦 experience!

▶ I specialize in businesses that: 
▪ Thrive in a pandemic
▪ Have rapid break-evens
▪ High margin
▪ Low investment
▪ Easily scalable
▪ Owner/operator or Executive model (manager run)

𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗘𝗟𝗦𝗘?
There is never a perfect time to buy a business. That only happens in the movies – and I’m not even sure it happens there! I’ll work within your timeframe and at your pace.

𝗙𝗨𝗡𝗗𝗜𝗡𝗚? 𝗙𝗔𝗠𝗜𝗟𝗬 𝗦𝗨𝗣𝗣𝗢𝗥𝗧? 𝗙𝗘𝗔𝗥? Yes, yes and yes. Yes, I can introduce you to companies that specialize in providing financing options. Yes, your spouse or partner should be supportive of you in this new venture. If not, this may not be a good option for you. Yes, everyone has lots of fear and we’ll talk about when fear raises its ugly head and how to combat it.

Are you a 𝗩𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗻? So is my husband (Viet Nam) and my Dad (WWII)
Many franchise companies offer a discount or a dollar amount off the franchisee fee to thank you for your service and they know veterans make exceptional franchise owners.

𝗙𝗜𝗡𝗔𝗟𝗟𝗬? When I follow up with the people I helped into successful businesses, they usually say:  
▶ I wished I had done it sooner!
▶ What was I so afraid of?
▶ I’m thinking about expanding!

If you’re considering a franchise as your next career move, Contact me. I promise you won't be disappointed.
