welcome NOTES

Year end is a time of reflection upon the moments we have lived in the preceding months. The past 2 years have seen great turmoil and triumphs across the world. The pandemic story of the past 2 years is already fading into the rear view mirror as masks have vanished, air travel is at record highs and children are back in school. Many other stories made the headlines from the war in Ukraine to China’s sabre rattling and lockdowns that ripple through the world economy, we have watched as a repeat of history from inflation to geo-political risk over the course of this year.

One shining light has been the continued surge in entrepreneurship in the US and around the world. During times of turmoil, the best in humanity is brought forth and oftentimes that manifests itself through business ventures and creation. Many have decided to change their lives through business ownership and business owners continue to look for ways to expand their business. Many look to franchising for a rapid, scaleable and efficient platform to grow.

The businesses highlighted in this issue are by no means an exhaustive list as there are thousands of franchise brands, these are some of the best brands that we have interacted with and are proud of the accomplishments they have achieved. Every one of these brands is a collection of entrepreneurs, dreamers, visionaries and clear eyed pragmatists who looked at the future with rolled up sleeves. Determination and countless hours of work went into every success they have achieved. Theirs is a hard fought victory. Against a backdrop of negativity and reasons not to move forward, they found the resiliency to follow their dream.

This is the true state of the world. People who will not deviate from what they set their minds to. While there are countless stories of those who chase short term opportunities with little view past the next few months profit, the entrepreneurs we applaud are those who look

over the horizon. Those who look at how to better humanity through services and products that make life better.

As you drive through your town, look at the many storefronts and vans you pass. Did you know these names a year ago? A decade ago? The continuing saga of American entrepreneurship means that there will always be new platforms to address the changing needs of society. Which ones will make it to 5 years? 10 years? 100 years?

This is the spirit that built our great country. The “pull yourself up by your bootstraps” ethos that caused America to be built, that created the greatest economic engine the world has ever seen. This spirit is alive and well today and is only growing.

As we wrap up the year at Franchise Journal, I am proud of the work that the entire team accomplished during 2022. Chantae Arrington and Brenda Lesch worked miracles under tight deadlines to coordinate the hundreds of articles from authors all around the world. To the many franchisors who advertised with us a heartfelt thank you! To the many authors who wrote amazing articles highlighting their views on companies, people and their accomplishments, this is your magazine.

And to you, our readers, thank you for taking the time each month to read our magazine and use the information contained within it for your education and growth.

As we stand on the cusp of the year end and look forward to a better 2023, it is my belief that the best is yet to come.

What Lies Ahead in Franchising in 2023

by Seth Lederman, Consultant, The Franchise Consulting Company

The ripple effect from the pandemic continues, impacting inflation rates and labor shortages among other economic issues. People’s thinking about life has also shifted—leaving many seeking a new, different, better way of working. This is good news for entrepreneurship in general and franchising in particular.

The International Franchise Association’s (IFA) 2022 Franchising Economic Outlook anticipated that franchise growth would stabilize in 2022, expanding by a little more than 2%, after 2021’s impressive recovery. While the interest rate hikes the Fed recently made to stabilize inflation are likely to affect all businesses, franchising remains a solid investment.

If you are considering becoming your own boss and flexing your entrepreneurship muscles via becoming a franchisee, it’s important to consider what trends lie ahead. Read on to learn more about the top three franchising trends in 2023.

LEARNING FRANCHISES

For many families, school during COVID’s lockdowns was a challenge. As a result, more and more children are needing additional help getting back on track with their education. On top of that, many families are interested

in home-based learning for their kids. Franchises that fall into this category, whether it is math tutoring, additional arts education or even online tutoring options, are a sound investment.

Many budding entrepreneurs decide to open their own business because of a desire to help others. An educationally focused franchise definitely fulfills that desire. Not only will

you have the satisfaction of being your own boss, but you will also know that you are helping positively shape America’s future.

GREEN FRANCHISES

The health of the planet is a growing concern for many, making green-focused

franchise businesses a great choice for someone contemplating entering the franchise world. A green franchise can be a business that provides sustainable solutions and energy audits for individuals and businesses. Other green franchises may provide beauty services that are nontoxic or they may offer home cleaning services using only eco-friendly supplies. There are even waterless car washes and franchises focused on improving air quality or installing solar power.

With new technologies being developed every day, the potential for more environmentally friendly franchise businesses will continue to grow. If your business interests include promoting more sustainable ways of living, this might be the franchise area for you.

HEALTH AND WELLNESS FRANCHISES

Finally, a hot trend in franchising for the year ahead is any health and wellness centered enterprise. After the past several years, more and more people understand the importance of staying healthy. Not only does it matter for physical health, but it also is essential to good mental health. What’s more, the wellness industry has proven itself to be fairly recession-

resistant, showing growth in previous recessions.

Within this category are a range of options, from yoga and pilates studios to personal training to spa experiences. Anything that touches on fitness and well-being is poised for great things in the months ahead.

The Vital Stretch offers one particularly exciting area to consider. Lack of movement can have serious implications on a person’s physical health. The one-on-one assisted stretching that The Vital Stretch’s franchise locations provide is beneficial to athletes, older adults and anyone interested in feeling their best. Founded by Melissa and Rob Goldring, The Vital Stretch doesn’t require franchisees to be physical therapists or chiropractors to become certified stretch practitioners.

Rob explains, “People coming out of COVID are focused on their personal wellness. We’ve all been home for long periods, working at our dining room tables, and we’re ready for personal services.” The couples’ background in physical therapy and chiropractic care informed their stretching technique.

“What differentiates us,” Melissa shares, “is that we’re both treating clinicians. We understand movement patterns and injury prevention patterns.”

As we look toward a new year, consider if the time is

right for you to pursue your own business. Investing in a franchise means you will be your own boss, but you won’t be on your own. You will have the guidance and expertise of a proven system backing you, from finding the right real estate location to marketing your business once it is ready to open the doors. Wherever your entrepreneurship dreams take you, it can be helpful to have an experienced and knowledgeable guide along the way.

Turn Your Business into a Franchise

by Greg Mohr, Consultant, The Franchise Consulting Company

can be in most markets across the United States. That way it's easy to find franchisees that would want to own a franchise in those markets. They will also need to be ready to make that shift of being a day-today business owner of their company location to training, coaching and mentoring new business partners, which are going to be their franchisees.

Rick, please walk us through; what is the process of converting a business into a franchise?

RICK ROBINSON, PRESIDENT OF FRANCHISE GENESIS

What does it take and what are we looking for to turn your business into a franchise?

I recently spoke with President of Franchise Genesis, Rick Robinson on what we are looking for in business when they want to become a franchise.

Rick says there’s several key things that are important. First of all, we want their current business to be profitable. Second, we would like the business model to be a business in a box, to make it easy for franchisees to jump into. Thirdly, we'd like it to be the kind of business model that the customer base is pretty substantial, and they

Rick also indicates one thing the business owners need to think about is, do you already have systems in place that are easily taught? Is my business model easy to teach someone how to do? And do I have the systems in place to help them follow this road to success? If they don’t, we help them put those in place.

Many businesses, are thinking should I expand through franchising, as opposed to me having to open other locations myself and being so exposed out there. We help them analyze all of that, we go through a very lengthy due diligence process with them, strategic analysis, looking at their business, looking at the opportunities to expand them as a franchise model. And then we talk to them about what changes they would need to make, and how we would help them do that before they start marketing your franchise opportunity.

Franchising is regulated by the Federal Trade Commission, so you need to make sure that you are working with good professionals that understand all of the details and nuances of franchising your business, as well as the legal ramifications. There is a document called a federal Franchise Disclosure Document that has 23 sections to it, and every franchisor must answer all of the information to be put in there. It has to be done by a franchise attorney, that will then register it and qualify it to be with the Federal Trade Commission, so that you can offer franchises.

Our process takes them through gathering all of that information that is needed and required in the FTD or Franchise Disclosure Document, and then working alongside our franchise attorneys to help get the legal documents done. The next step is that they need to have an operations manual in place. This is going to be the standard operating procedures. We help put that together and that's going to be the standard operating procedures that the franchisee must use and run for their business. Now they're a legal franchisor. They have the

operations manual, the training in place. Now, how am I going to find good, qualified franchise candidates to purchase my franchises through? There are many ways to market your brand to try to find qualified franchisees. The easiest ones that don't necessarily bring you the best qualified candidates are typical online marketing, pay per click paid social, organic. As a rule, only about 1% of those leads end up buying your franchise, it's so easy for people to get on the internet, look around kick tires, they have no money, they're not serious. Half of them you can never get in touch with you're leaving voicemails and emails and text messages. The next 25% you do get in touch with but they don't have any money. They're not that serious. So it's only that final 25%, maybe 25 out of 100 that are seriously looking for franchise opportunities and have some money, and they're looking for something

that would help them achieve their goals and their dreams of business ownership. It really limits the number of qualified candidates that you're dealing with that just come in off the internet.

Other resources would be the franchise broker networks that have consultants. There are several very good ones out there. We happen to have a sister company, the Franchise Consulting Company that we're affiliated with, that has 150 of these consultant brokers out there. They are dedicated to finding good, qualified franchise candidates every day. What they do after consulting with the individual knowing their goals, their background, their budget, they will match up several very good franchise opportunities to them that are a good fit for them. That's probably the best avenue for finding good, qualified franchise candidates. We also own a franchise Expo

company. That's one of our sister companies, the Great American Franchise Expo company.

This is where you're in a convention center, there might be 75 to 100 different franchisors representing their franchise opportunity. And the public comes in to learn about those opportunities. That's a good way to gather good franchise candidates, you're able to engage with them one on one right away and discuss what your opportunity is.

What is the Best Franchise?

by Chris Otter, Consultant, The Franchise Consulting Company

As a former Certified Financial Planner (CFP) with several Wall Street investment companies, I was often asked “What is the best stock to buy?” Now, as a Certified Franchise Consultant, I am asked “What is the best franchise?”

The answer is the same –it depends on your Goals, i.e., what are you looking to achieve? Just as if you are planning for retirement, invest for your kids’ college funding, or if you are more risk tolerant and considering small cap, high growth stocks, the underlying investment will be different.

Unfortunately, many simply look on the internet hoping a light bulb will go off in their head and they will just “know” they have found the right opportunity for them. That is like planning your vacation and looking at all the pretty pictures on the internet, then you get there and there are college kinds throwing chairs in the pool. No thanks.

The good news is The Franchise Consulting Company can help you find the right franchise that is the best fit for you. How do we do that?

As mentioned, first, we help you clarify your goals and what you want the business to accomplish for you in terms of your financial and lifestyle objectives (i.e., we help you set the “destination” in your GPS!)

In addition, we consider

your background, abilities and strengths, financial ability, and your local market characteristics to identify opportunities that have the best potential to help you achieve your goals.

From there, we help you every step of the way to help you learn about these opportunities to gather a complete information set BEFORE ever making a final decision. We can also help you with referrals to the top funding sources (including SBA) and legal resources in the country – all with NO commitment or obligation at NO cost or additional investment to you and our

From Hospitality To Home Services, Memories Of His Father Helped Start A New Career With Pillar To Post Home Inspectors®

by Rhonda Sanderson, CEO, Sanderson & Associates

She has authored many articles, helped grow numerous franchise chains and is considered one of the Top 30 Small Business Influencers (Fit Business) in the U.S. Find her at Rhonda@sandersonpr. com or on LinkedIn where she is the author of Franchise Stars at https://www.linkedin. com/in/rhondasanderson-a6b658/

Choosing home inspection as a new career, look at these industry facts: The U.S. building inspector industry, measured by revenue, is estimated to have a market size of $4.9 billion by end of this year, according to global research firm IBISWorld.

Launching operations in October, the 43-year-old Kevin Held’s road to becoming a small-business owner demonstrates that life isn’t lived on a straight continuum, but instead a fluid, everchanging one that takes us on paths unimagined.

Like many before him, Held originally moved to Los Angeles to purse an acting career, which led him to working in the hospitality and foodservice industries to make ends meet. He had been the bar manager at a well-known fine-dining restaurant in Malibu when the pandemic hit.

“The pandemic affected us all. For my part, my foodservice career, which had always been about being of service and providing a cheerful experience, became a string of crisis-management tasks,” Held said. “The job became unrecognizable to me, such

that I could no longer see the larger purpose in it for me.”

As a result, Held left the foodservice industry in summer 2020 and became a FedEx driver. The change afforded him opportunities that were virtually impossible when he was in the restaurant business, such as being able to spend holidays and important events with his husband and their families and friends. But there was still something missing for Held.

“At the end of the day it was a functionary job where you pick up a box, move it somewhere else and put it down again. While I was very happy to be able to enjoy my personal time more, the question of a larger purpose still nagged at me,” Held said.

Whether fate or not, Held’s father had been a contractor and when Held was growing up in Texas, he would visit his father in Washington State on summer vacations and help him build houses. His father had even bought a run-down, old cabin on a river there, one that he planned to renovate and eventually retire to. “His happiest moments were fishing off the deck there,” Held said of his father.

But unfortunately, John Held developed cancer and died in 1996 at the age of 47. Kevin was only 16. Not only had they lost their father, but Kevin and his sister inherited the cabin –which was still unlivable – and for which they were unprepared. “We had neither the money nor the knowledge to fix it up, especially from a thousand miles away,” Held said.

Years passed and the property fell into further disrepair until early 2020 when a confluence of events occurred that allowed Held and his sister to sell the home to a retired couple with “the means to repair the home and the respect for the beauty of the area that my father always saw,” Held said.

This past April, with the proceeds from the sale of his father’s cabin backing him, Held left FedEx to pursue his dream of business ownership, that after extensive research, led him to Pillar To Post Home Inspectors. “It was the right mix of going it alone and being part of a team… the right combination of physical and intellectual labors,” Held said. “I could go on and on… It was the right personalities in the corporate office, the right amount of training and support as I switched careers entirely and the right potential for personal and professional growth. It just seemed to fit.”

One of the many reasons Held chose Pillar To Post Home Inspectors is the innovative

technologies the company recently introduced. These advanced technologies, along with the business model, provide an exceptional home inspection with unique and innovative features that are all delivered within a seamless brand experience. All developed prepandemic and ready to be utilized when the pandemic struck, the new features further highlight Pillar To Post Home Inspectors’ standing as a visionary in its industry. The package is now known as the Ultimate Home Inspection and it’s revolutionizing the home inspection industry. So much so that the company was just awarded the much coveted Best Innovators by Franchise Update Media in the category of “best customer service tools.”

While Held embarks on his new career, he can still see himself calling on some of the many skills he developed while in the foodservice industry. “One of the most essential skills I mastered is that of listening,” Held said. “Really listening to and engaging clients as they share their experiences is the only way to manage problems that can arise in a way that satisfies them.”

And by following in his father’s footsteps in the housing industry, Held is paying homage to his father every day as he begins his chapter as a small-business owner. “I used the money

from that sale to fund my investment in my business,” Held said of his father’s cabin. “Though my father wasn’t able to build his dream, he made it possible for me to build mine.”

FRANCHISING AIN’T…

There are several misconceptions surrounding franchising that keep buyers from seriously considering an investment in a franchise. Information is knowledge and knowledge is power. If you want the power to change the course of your life, here is the information you need.

FRANCHISING AIN’T JUST FAST FOOD

Many people considering a franchise believe these opportunities are all in the quick service restaurant (QSR) space. We all know about McDonald’s and Subway as famous franchise brands. And there are many good QSR concepts in the food and beverage industry. But franchising is more than just fast food. In fact, food and beverage is less than one-third of all franchises. Franchising also offers opportunities in automotive care and repair, income tax services, health and wellness services, beauty and personal care businesses, lawn and landscaping services, real estate and property management services and so much more. Did you know you could sell and service electric wheelchairs and motorized scooters as a franchised business?

There are more than 4000 franchised concepts out there. So where do you start.

FRANCHISING AIN’T FINANCIALLY OUT OF REACH

I hear time and again, “I don’t have the money needed to buy a franchise”. In reality, none of us keep enough money in our checking account to start a business. So where do you turn? Turn to a professional that knows how to help you leverage funds you have in other places. Home equity, investment portfolios and retirement funds can be leveraged in many ways without minimal risk and partnered with lending programs that are designed to put you in business.

FRANCHISING AIN’T COMPLICATED

While there are hundreds of franchised concepts out there they are mostly structured the same way. There are common threads woven into the fabric of

franchising than makes most of these business opportunities similar enough to compare and contrast them and allow you to make a sound and informed decision.

At the end of the day, it’s about resources. Resources like an experienced franchise consultant or broker to can walk you through the identification of brands that best fit your circumstances, educate you on how to review and research companies and point you toward other resources like legal council and funding sources to help you achieve your entrepreneurial dreams. Consultations are free. The results can be priceless.

L.A. Bikini Signs New Area Representative for New Jersey

by Rhonda Sanderson, CEO, Sanderson & Associates

New Jersey native Genna Preston sees the future and the future is now for L.A. Bikini, the innovative franchise concept that combines a novel “sugaring” hair removal technique with a forwardthinking business model. The 38-year-old beauty industry veteran recently signed an agreement to expand the franchisor’s footprint in New Jersey, where it currently has one studio in Sea Girt.

Preston will not only be a franchise owner, but an Area Representative for L.A. Bikini, recruiting other potential franchise owners to open multiple locations in her territory, which covers Union, Essex, and Middlesex counties. Area Representatives commit to opening from seven to 20plus units in their designated territories over periods ranging from five to 10 years. Preston has 11 licenses available to sell.

Preston is currently the Director of Esthetics for three L.A. Bikini studios in the Raleigh, N.C., area, but plans to return to New Jersey next spring and open her own L.A. Bikini studio in Union County by May 2023. Preston is targeting a second location near the campus of Rutgers University.

Sugaring uses an all-natural sugar paste formulation to remove unwanted hair in a

natural way without the harsh chemicals used in the outdated hot-wax Brazilian. Sugaring is a healthier, less painful way to remove hair that also inhibits hair growth, all of which helps to achieve the smoothest skin possible – and a loyal following.

L.A. Bikini is in growth mode since it began franchising in 2015. It already has locations in seven states, and its ambitious growth plan calls for having 100 studios open across the country by 2027, eventually expanding to more than 300 locations.

“I have never felt so

passionate about a brand. I am literally honored to have this opportunity to grow L.A. Bikini in New Jersey,” Preston said. “L.A. Bikini is more than just a hair removal studio. As someone who has been in the industry for 20 years and has worked for our competitors, I can honestly say that none of the other hair removal franchises compare to L.A. Bikini. L.A. Bikini doesn’t want to have a revolving door of clients. We offer a product, service, and experience like no other.”

Preston earned her New

Jersey cosmetology license while attending Union High School but hadn’t quite determined what direction she wanted to follow when she graduated. “I was a lost young adult who didn’t know what to do with her life. I worked random jobs to make money until I realized I needed to get my life together,” Preston said.

Preston eventually enrolled in community college and then Kean University, excelling in the classroom and making up for her past indifference while graduating Magna Cum Laude with a bachelor’s degree in Communications. But while still in school, she started working at a major hair removal chain and the experience rekindled her love of the beauty industry… with one major difference. This time, Preston had a plan.

“I fell in love with the hair removal industry, my co-workers and clients,” Preston said. “When I graduated, I knew I had to find a way to stay with the job I loved without staying stagnant in my position. I was a go-getter and always wanted more.”

True to her word, Preston became a corporate trainer for the chain, traveling the country opening new locations and training waxers. After seven years though, Preston relocated to North Carolina where she joined Massage Envy and quickly became a multi-unit manager. But again, the go-getter in Preston wanted more and that’s when

she was introduced to L.A. Bikini by her boss.

“I sat down with my franchisee and told him I needed more and that’s when he introduced the idea of L.A. Bikini,” Preston said. “I was excited for this new adventure since it was going to be my opportunity to help build a brand and business from the ground up,” Preston said.

While using sugar to remove unwanted body hair is actually an ancient technique, it took L.A. Bikini to find a niche with the unique service and help it stand out in a competitive industry with little differentiation. L.A. Bikini offers a forward-thinking business model combined with state-of-the-art technology; smaller, more efficient studio footprints that result in lower operating costs and fewer employees; and unique membership models that give customers special perks and savings with only a short-term commitment.

L.A. Bikini is striving to offer transformative hair removal by creating a mutually rewarding relationship between its owners, employees, and guests and that is a formula for success that has individuals like Preston bullish on the growth of the concept. From her days as a high school graduate with no definitive plan, to excelling in college and graduating with honors, and now becoming a small business owner, Preston hopes other women can learn and benefit from her experience.

“I have never been a franchisee. I do not come from a wealthy family,” Preston said. “I have found investors and bank loans and have taken the reins of this opportunity. I believe I can show other women that if they put in the work and keep their eyes on the prize, they too, can succeed. If I can do it, literally anyone can!”

City of Dallas City of Dallas

LAUNCHES INITIATIVE

Mayor Eric Johnson and Carlos White have a vision to uplift communities and improve lives through entrepreneurship. Franchising is the vehicle they have chosen as it represents more than just owning a business and pursuing the proverbial American Dream. While their vision is inclusive for all Americans, they are focusing their efforts first on minority communities with a specific focus on Black owned business. The ability for Black people to participate in local, regional, and global markets represents a dream deferred for many years. Consequently, an analysis of Black business ownership can offer insight into the degree to which America is truly the land of opportunity.

The mayor launched the Franchise Initiative in August to solidify Dallas as a global leader in franchising and help small business owners and aspiring entrepreneurs — especially in southern Dallas — utilize

franchising, a proven business and distribution model, to expand their businesses.

To lead the effort, Mayor Johnson tapped White, a top Dallas lawyer. White went to work identifying experienced, Southern Dallas-centric candidates to help lead and support the effort. This effort turned into a groundswell with national leaders business taking notice and supporting their effort.

According to a report by Andre Perry and Carl Romer of the Metropolitan Policy Program, the underrepresentation of Black businesses does not come from a lack of will or talent. Gallup psychologists developed an assessment (Builder Profile 10) to measure the enduring characteristics that predict success as an entrepreneur, including appetite for risk, creativity, and determination. There are no statistically significant differences in performance on the Builder Profile 10 between non-Latino or Hispanic whites and Latino or Hispanic and Black people, according to Gallup’s analysis. Rather, the underrepresentation of Black businesses encapsulates a myriad of structural barriers underscoring America’s tumultuous history with structural racism.

One of the principal barriers to the growth and development of Black businesses is that Black households have been denied equal opportunities for wealth accumulation. The median Black household’s wealth ($9,000) is nearly

one-fifteenth that of nonBlack households ($134,520), according to our analysis of 2018 Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP) data. Because of historic discrimination in housing and lending, would-be Black businesses owners have significantly less startup capital than their non-Black peers.

According to our analysis of the American Business Survey, 90% of new businesses >>

among all races do not receive any outside investors. Most people use the equity in their homes to start their firms. Prior Brookings research has shown devaluation of property in Black neighborhoods, which throttles this method of business development. Homes

in Black neighborhoods across the country are devalued by an estimated sum of $156 billion—the equivalent of more than 4 million firms, based on the average amount Black people use to start their businesses. Declining home ownership

Here are a few statistics:

rates also hamstring Black business growth.

Mayor Johnson and Carlos White envision a better tomorrow where the tools for success can be attained by anyone interested in building their dream. This is not just good for minority communities, this is good for America. According to the most recent Census Bureau data available, Black people comprise approximately 14.2% of the U.S. population, but Black businesses comprise only 2.2% of the nation’s 5.7 million employer businesses (firms with more than one employee). If you take the African American population in the United States and carry through to business ownership their percentage of the population, amazing results are achieved.

There are 124,004 Black businesses, accounting for 2.2% of employer businesses. If Black businesses accounted for 14.2% employer firms (equivalent to the Black population), there would be 806,218 more Black businesses.

Currently, Black businesses bring in average revenues of $1,031,021, compared to $6,485,334 for non-Black businesses. If Black businesses increased their average revenue to the level of non-Black businesses, it would increase total revenue in Black businesses by $676,356,621,618.

Black businesses create an average of 10 jobs per firm, compared to 23 for non-Black businesses. If the average employees per Black business increased to 23, it would create approximately 1.6 million jobs (1,583,268).

Black businesses pay their employees an average of $29,882, compared to non-Black businesses’ average pay of $51,357. If Black businesses paid as much as non-Black businesses, then those employees would see an increase in pay by approximately $25 billion ($25,947,313,541).

If the number of Black businesses matched the population size and the revenue of each of those firms matched non-Black businesses’ revenue, then the total revenue of Black businesses would increase by $5.9 trillion ($5,904,952,124).

If the number of Black businesses matched the population size and the employees per firm matched nonBlack businesses, it would create more than 19 million jobs (19,732,593).

Advisory Board

Imagine for a moment what happens when this level of creativity, dedication and vision is allowed to flourish. The impact to the economy changes lives.

Along with White, the Mayor put together an advisory board who have achieved significant success in business to help spread this vision. These individuals have given selflessly of themselves in the past and have stepped up to take the Mayor’s Franchise Initiative to the next level. They are:

Calvin Golden — Franchise Developer, multi-unit Wingstop franchise owner in and outside of southern Dallas, and Wingstop Lifetime Achievement Awardee.

Shari Hicks — Executive Director, Community Impact, at JPMorgan Chase & Co., and Vice Chair of Harmony Community Development Corporation.

Lynn McBee — Mayor Johnson’s Workforce Development Czar and the CEO of Young Women’s Prep Network, a series of Texas college-prep schools for girls.

Roland Parrish — CEO and owner of Parrish Restaurants, Ltd., which owns and operates 25+ McDonald’s restaurants in and outside of southern Dallas and former Chair and CEO of the National Black McDonald’s

Operators Association.

Veronica-Torres Hazley — CEO of Torres Hazley Enterprise, LLC, and founder of Hey Chica! by Healthy Latina Lifestyle.

Tim Williams, CFE — Chief Franchise Officer of Williams Licensing, Inc., Director of Operations for Williams Fried Chicken Inc., and a member of the Board of Directors for the International Franchise Association, the largest franchise trade organization in the world.

Carlos White will serve as chair of the advisory board. “These outstanding advisory board members understand that if we truly want to grow southern Dallas, we cannot afford to treat half of our city solely as a real-estate play,” Mayor Johnson said. “We must invest in the people of southern Dallas and strive to increase economic activity and entrepreneurship in every part of our city. Together, through our relentless approach to strengthening our city, we will make all Dallas communities more vibrant and more equitable.”

“This advisory board’s expertise and experience will be invaluable to our exciting efforts to increase franchise business activity in Dallas, and having southern Dallas as the epicenter for the Mayor’s Franchise Initiative further underscores the fact that Dallas is a global leader in franchising and economic inclusiveness” said White. “I look forward to working closely with the mayor and advisory board to help grow our city and its people.”

Starting next spring, the

Mayor’s Franchise Initiative plans to launch Franchisor and Franchisee Accelerator training programs. The advisory board is also working with “Friends of the Initiative” and other organizations to host free educational workshops and networking events throughout 2023.

Vice Antwanye Ford, CEO of Enlightened Inc and the Vice Chair of the US Black Chambers said “When a group has the mission to increase wealth and opportunity for all people, we support it. This is why the Dallas Franchise Initiative is so important. It is for America."

The Franchise Journal is proud to support this important initiative with a section in every issue of our magazine that will highlight the successes of the Dallas Franchise Initiative in the coming months as well as promoting businesses in the cities that The Great American Franchise Expo exhibits in at the DFI Pavilion. As the only American owned franchise trade show in existence, we are committed to supporting the dream of all Americans to grow their family’s wealth, support their community and help uplift those around them.

The Advisory Board will play an integral part in implementing the goals of the Mayor’s Franchise Initiative. The Board includes franchise, work force, and community and economic development professionals. In this issue, we would like to profile the following Board members. >>

Friends for More Than 30 Years, Veterans Join Forces with No. 1 Mobile Flooring Brand

by Rhonda Sanderson, CEO, Sanderson & Associates

It’s quite a story. A friendship begun 33 years ago aboard a guided missile cruiser leads to two longtime friends and military veterans going into business together in 2022 as franchise owners with Floor Coverings International, the brand that’s consistently ranked No. 1 in the mobile flooring category, visiting customers’ homes in a Mobile Flooring Showroom stocked with thousands

of flooring samples from top manufacturers. That’s how Ron Guyton and Guy Critelli, both 51, ushered in the new year when they launched operations with Floor Coverings International Mid-South, serving customers throughout Shelby, Tipton, and Fayette counties of Tennessee. “We are so excited to be in business together,” Guyton said. “Our hope is to have not only provide for our families,

but to give back to the community we both love.”

Guyton served in the United States Navy for 24 years and retired in 2012 as a Logistics Specialist Master Chief Petty Officer and remained with the Navy as a civilian until joining Floor Coverings International. Likewise, Critelli served in the Navy for more than 20 years and retired as a Machinist’s Mate Chief Petty Officer. After living in Florida for several

years, Critelli served as the Tipton County Veteran Service Officer when he relocated to Atoka before going into business with Guyton. “Being in the Navy for more than 20 years, we know the value of hard work and what it takes to get things done,” Critelli said. “We are structured, dedicated and service-oriented, which should definitely help us to operate and maintain a successful business.”

The longtime friends first met in 1989 in the Philippines while stationed onboard the USS Sterett. They were reunited again in Hawaii in 2005. But then Guyton left for his new duty station in Millington while Critelli retired and went back home to the Tampa area. “We took turns visiting each other with our families,” Guyton said. “In 2016, Guy and his family came to visit for the Fourth of July and decided to stay. They purchased a home, went back to Florida, packed up and moved to Tennessee. The rest is history.”

In Floor Coverings International, Guyton and Critelli found a company that has tripled in size since 2005 by putting a laser focus on consumer buying habits and expressed desires, its impressive operating model, growth ability, marketing, advertising, and merchandising. Floor Coverings International

further separates itself from the competition through its customer experience, made up of several simple and integrated steps that exceed customers’ expectations.

For this, Floor Coverings International was given the Innovation Award for Customer Response from Franchise Update Media in 2020, and the same award again in 2021 for Best Use of Technology. Franchise Update is the benchmark publication and conference entity that is the Gold Standard of Franchising.

“The advantages and benefits of owning a business instead of working for someone else was our biggest inspiration,” Critelli said. “Floor Coverings International’s thorough franchise screening and detailed training gave us both the confidence to step out of our comfort zone and proceed with the process.”

With the home improvement industry booming, the flooring market is also keeping pace. The global flooring market was estimated to reach $409 billion in 2021, according to Grand View Research. The market is expected to grow at an annual rate of more than six percent through 2028, reaching overall sales of $621 billion.

“As people have spent more time and put more money in their homes, they have started to realize details about their homes they want to change,”

Guyton said. “Some of the new flooring options we provide are much more family- and pet-friendly than what was previously available, so it gives us a chance to help families reinvest in their biggest asset –their home.”

About Floor Coverings

With Proven Record of Success in Construction Paul Davis Restoration Welcomes Another #Difference Maker ™

by Rhonda Sanderson, CEO, Sanderson & Associates

Manuel Martinez is only 41 years old, but he learned at an early age what it takes to succeed in business and he’s been doing so ever since. His latest chapter

began in August 2021 with the opening of Paul Davis Restoration of South San Diego County – a branch of one of the most trusted brands in the insurance restoration industry – and it holds special

meaning for Martinez, who has been involved in the construction industry since he was 22 and owned his own construction business before he was 30.

“My background has always been in construction,” Martinez said. “For more than 19 years it has not only been my focus, but my lifestyle. However, amidst all the work, my one motivation has been my family. Being able to share this experience with them has made everything I went through worth it.”

Indeed, working alongside Martinez at Paul Davis Restoration of South San Diego County is his wife, Mildred, and their daughter, Yaremi. Paul Davis serves customers in San Ysidro, Imperial Beach, Chula Vista, La Mesa, Spring Valley, and El Cajon.

“Having my wife and kids alongside me during this journey has been a blessing. They have helped me a lot during this process and have been a huge part of it,” Martinez said. “I am extremely fortunate to have had the

chance to achieve my goals with my family by my side. It has been a life-changing journey.”

The name Martinez stands behind is one of the industry’s best. For more than 55 years, Paul Davis has restored residential and commercial properties damaged by fire, water, storms, mold, and other disasters and has offered cleaning services for biohazards such as COVID-19. Paul Davis is a one-stop disaster mitigation and restoration company. It is the insurance industry’s restoration expert and recognized as one of The Best Franchises to Open in a variety of publications.

The team at Paul Davis of South San Diego County and hundreds of other Paul Davis locations across North America are also recognized as Difference Makers™, honoring daily the company’s mission to “deliver an experience of extraordinary care while serving people in their time of need.”

“Just like every customer is unique, we recognize that their needs are different, and we are here to help make things easier for them,” Martinez said. “When a customer has an emergency or is making an improvement to their home, it gives us the opportunity to serve them and gives us an insight toward our communal

needs that allows us to achieve more. Our team is part of our family. We celebrate each other and help one another grow. We also recognize that the relationship we build with our customers and the community is fundamental.”

Before joining Paul Davis, Martinez was the owner of Del Rey Construction for 14 years and though he has a wealth of experience from which to draw, Martinez said he still learns valuable lessons every day. “Having started a company when I was young, I quickly learned what it meant to provide the best service possible while also helping in my community during challenging times. It was a difficult job, but it was my passion.”

By putting his previous knowledge and experience to work, the Paul Davis business model allows Martinez to implement his own perspective on running his franchise. “Paul Davis was the best fit,” Martinez said. “I am a strong believer that God opens the right door at the right time, and for me, this was the best decision. I was devoted to my previous company, and it rewarded me with building stronger connections in the field to help me further achieve my goals. And when this opportunity presented itself, I was ready to move on to a

more challenging path.”

Paul Davis franchise owners take pride in helping members of their community after a catastrophic event. From immediately securing the property and working with the insurance company, to bringing the property back to its pre-damaged state, Paul Davis is a true full-service restoration solution.

“My main goal is to provide the best service possible to my community,” Martinez said. “Being raised here has taught me to value everything this area offers and to help the people around me.”

Multi-Unit Franchisees

Take Notice of American Freight. Why?

Since introducing its franchise model in 2021, American Freight Furniture, Mattress and Appliance has quickly gained a reputation as an easy-to-build, quick-to-open and highly scalable investment opportunity. That’s why the retailer has already awarded nearly 50 franchises across the country to 10 multi-unit franchise owners—all while

establishing a robust pipeline of interested candidates.

“American Freight’s unit economics sell themselves but are elevated by several other key differentiators,” said Terry McGee, Vice President of Franchise Development at American Freight. “Qualified candidates are recognizing the value that comes from franchising with an established and growing

brand, and see the benefits of our ‘no frills, no fluff’ business model.”

Let’s explore the top four reasons behind why American Freight’s franchise model is making a name for itself in the franchise industry:

STRONG UNIT ECONOMICS

Let’s get to the bottom line—the numbers speak for themselves. The top 25% of

stores average $5,590,180 in gross sales and $1,006,555 in net income per store.* With such impressive unit economics, American Freight’s franchise opportunity appeals to both single and multi-unit investors, especially since it requires minimal oversight in the day-to-day store operations.

360+ STORE BUYING POWER

There is strength in numbers. American Freight’s nationwide footprint is 360+ strong—meaning its buying power is even stronger. Franchise owners directly benefit from the retailer’s purchasing power and reliable network of supply chain relationships.

ESTABLISHED, GROWING BRAND

Everyone needs a place to sit, sleep and eat, which is why American Freight has managed to withstand economic headwinds and grow its nationwide footprint for more than 25 years. Even after more than two decades in the industry, the national retailer has identified an additional 400+ target markets for future development across the country.

THE PRODUCT MAKES YOU MONEY

A majority of the initial investment in an American Freight franchise is put toward product inventory, which in turn makes you money. The stores are like mini warehouses stocked with product and designed with no frills or fluff— meaning minimal overhead costs to the franchise owner.

An ideal American Freight franchise candidate is a United States citizen with good credit, a minimum of $200,000 liquidity and a minimum of $750,000 net worth. The opportunity is

fit for prospects seeking a semi-absentee investment in multiple locations.

CUTS FOR KIDS

CEO

www.SharkeysFranchisingCompany.com

Passive ownership is what Sharkey's is all about, says CEO Scott Sharkey. We have been able to combine a passive ownership franchise with a model that is 100% recession proof for today and years to come. Sharkey's Cuts for Kids is not one of those trendy franchises where maybe you make back your ROI within 3-5 years before your concept gets replaced by something bigger, better, or more trendy. Our franchise offers people the opportunity to invest in a brand that has longevity, is fun to run, is recession proof and has very little competition. Kids always need haircuts and you cannot get that on Amazon.

Our goal is to give people a passive ownership opportunity at a very nominal cost. Its longevity is an investment, giving owners the option to pass their business down to future generations.

A PLACE AT HOME President aplaceathomefranchise.com

In 2012, long-time friends, Dustin Distefano and Jerod Evanich, were inspired by their own personal experiences to start a business built on providing professional in-home senior care that allows seniors to remain happy and independent in the comfort of their own home. Unlike any other senior home care company, A Place At Home built a Senior-Focused Care model. This model offers four continuum of care services providing multiple streams of revenue, which include in-home senior care, care coordination, senior living alternatives, and staffing solutions. Senior care is one of the most impactful businesses a community can have. Committed to their ‘We are CARE’ philosophy of being Compassionate, Accountable, Respectful, and Ethical, they began franchising this business model in 2017. Deemed "a next-gen home care franchise opportunity" by FRANX, they have now opened 24 locations coast-to-coast.

So, at Hello Garage, our mission is to transform garages and create remarkable customer experiences — we elevate the garage from cluttered junk drawer to America’s true front door. The possibilities for residential garage transformation are endless, but the Hello Garage franchise currently focuses on concrete floor coatings, storage cabinets and accessories like slat wall and lighting. Backed by more than 45 years’ experience and the research and manufacturing power of Supportworks, we’re also transforming the contractor-customer relationship. In fact, we hope to raise the bar so high, our homeowners will expect more from their electricians, plumbers and landscape contractors, too. So, close your eyes and join us in imagining the possibilities. Then open them and say it out loud: Hello Garage.

Bigfoot Forestry “Nowhere to Hide.” Once we started creating new relationships and making new friends with our customers, our second tagline became call Bigfoot Forestry “We will be your new B.F.F.” (BigFoot Forestry). We stand behind that today. Communication and transparency is a must for anyone representing Bigfoot forestry.
