If you’ve been wondering how to franchise your business or how to take your franchise company to the next level then this podcast is for you. My name is Tom DuFore, CEO of Big Sky Franchise Team, and I’ve helping business leaders expand through franchising since 2003. I have personally advised more than 600 clients and thousands of small business owners and entrepreneurs on franchising. I have seen and learned a lot during that time, and I will be sharing tips and tidbits about franchising your business and building a successful, long lasting, franchise company. Our podcast is designed for the business owner looking to franchise their business, the growing franchisor, and for the seasoned franchise leader who is looking to keep up with current franchise trends. We will be sharing relevant information and news to educate you about the who, what, where, when, why, and how to franchise a business and how to grow and sustain a franchised company. Our intention is to share frequent, jam packed episodes with useful and practical information to guide you on your franchise journey. Welcome to the Franchise Your Business Podcast!
