Many aspiring business owners are drawn towards franchise ownership due to the increased odds of success. After all, franchises have the benefit of providing franchisees with specialized support, a well-known brand name, and an established system of conducting business. However, running a successful franchise still comes with challenges — and many new franchisees don’t realize that there are additional resources they can turn to for support along their journey. These resources may pertain to financing your franchise, furthering your education, or planning with a franchise consultant.

With a portfolio of over 550 franchises available in 21 industries, Hundred Acre Consulting, LLC, is a full-service, certified franchise consulting and referral organization serving the United States and Canada. Our purpose is to foster community and economic development by assisting families and individuals in realizing their aspirations of owning a business. As a certified franchise consultant (CFT), I assist you in gaining a better understanding of the franchise industry and achieving your business ownership goals. My clients benefit from my advice, education, and coaching. I expose them to businesses that are a good fit for their background and ambitions, and I assist them in determining whether becoming a franchisee will help them achieve those goals and is a good fit for them personally. My approach differs from the norm in that I want to concentrate on my clients’ lifestyle goals and financial objectives. I assist my clients in determining whether franchising is a viable option for achieving their absolutes and objectives, and if so, which business models will get them there. For me, the why comes first, followed by the how. The third factor is what the company does. I started consulting in the nonprofit, entertainment, and franchising businesses in early 2008. Since 1983, I’ve been coaching existing and rising enterprises and organizations in both the private and public sectors, focusing on business and business development and assisting in the creation of economic and community development.

When most people become franchise owners, one of the prime benefits they anticipate is conducting business under an established brand name. While this is certainly true, you will still need to develop a thorough and brand-consistent marketing strategy for your franchise. Although you don’t need to be a marketing expert, you will need to understand the marketing basics as a franchise owner. The best marketing strategy for your franchise depends on the industry you’re in, so it may be wise to discuss techniques to expand your customer base with your franchisor or a knowledgeable franchise consultant.
