I was a franchise broker/franchise consultant for several years. I helped lots of people get into lots of franchises. I know the good, the bad, and the ugly about this sector of the franchise industry.
I just finshed writing a Franchise Manifesto on the topic, (thank you Jonathan Fields for introducing me to the Manifesto idea) and I wanted to provide even more information on this segment of franchising.
Some people think that I dislike franchise brokers and consultants, and that all I’m trying to do is promote my way of doing business-the way that I assist prospective franchise buyers…
I am promoting the way that I do business. (Partially)
But, my way of doing business isn’t for everyone. Now, this may sound a little strange, but if you choose to work with me, you’ll be my client. Let me make sure that you’re clear on that;
You will be my client. You are paying me for my expertise and guidance.
When I was a franchise broker/consultant, the franchisor was my client. They paid me a commission.
Now, I’m commission-free

My Franchise Manifesto goes into detail about the differences between franchise brokers/consultants and franchise advisors, so make sure you grab it.
Below, you’ll find a collection of posts about franchise brokers and franchise consultants. Enjoy!
