What is non-food franchising and what are the potential opportunities within that space? We have Jon Ostenson, the CEO of FranBridge Consulting, to introduce us to the world of franchising. Jon is a Certified Franchise Consultant, the author of Non-Food Franchising, and the CEO of FranBridge Consulting, where he helps investors understand the ins and outs of non-food franchising and connects them to the best opportunities possible. In black and white, the franchise business model is quite easy to understand; you buy a franchise and manage the business under the guidance of its parent company. However, executing a successful franchise is where it gets tricky. Luckily, Jon has jumped on the show to explain how franchises work, the most successful ventures beyond food, and what the systems (marketing, management, training, etc.) look like in this model. In addition, Jon gives us some examples of real-life franchisees and how they made whopping profits from various businesses. If you think franchising might just be the next best opportunity for you, let Jon give you some valuable insights into what to expect. KEY TAKEAWAYS 1. There are more franchising opportunities beyond food, such as hotels, home services businesses, health and wellness, and more. 2. Some franchising businesses come with tax benefits. 3.

“Your mission should be bigger than you can do in your lifetime, but you should never lose sight of it as your North Star. Any decision that we make or any of the things that we're doing, we ask the question, ‘Is this going to further the joy?' The joy is interacting with your clients and really feeling like you're making a difference. I want to bring joy to both sides—accountants and clients. How can we make it more positive for both? We do so by finding solutions for our clients' pain points.” – Kristen Keats The finer details of this episode:Nearshore vs. offshore outsourcingSolving pain points for clientsSolving staffing issues with CadenciaHelping accountants start their own firm through a franchising option Episode resources:Summit CPA website – www.summitcpa.netEmail us with questions – cpa@summitcpa.netCadenciaBreakaway Bookkeeping & Advising (breakawayba.com)Sherwood Tax & Accounting
Did you know that the semi-absentee franchise owner and multi-unit franchise owner is on the rise? And did you know that the majority of franchisors are in non-food franchising?

Jon Ostenson is the CEO of FranBridge Consulting, a franchising consulting firm, and the author of the book 'Non-Food Franchising'. He is also a Forbes contributor, writing on the subject of franchising. Jon and his team at FranBridge Consulting help entrepreneurs find the perfect franchise opportunity and start on the path to success.In this episode, Jon explains that franchises have a higher success rate than startups, with 92% of franchises still in business after five years. He attributes this success to the ability to build up cash flow, create exit value, and enjoy tax write-offs that are not available to W-2 employees. Franchising can also set up generational wealth and provide greater financial stability than a typical job. Additionally, listeners are invited to have a free call with John and get a free book from his website.The key to success when it comes to franchising is to follow the franchise system to the letter. Jon explains that the most successful franchisees are those who follow the system. It enables you to enjoy the benefits of a larger organization, brand recognition, and financial stability.Another point to consider when investing in a franchise – its resale value. It has been found that franchised businesses tend to trade at a multiple of 1.5 times more than non-franchised businesses. This is due to the fact that franchised businesses have a certain level of trust and brand recognition that makes them more attractive to potential buyers.In conclusion, franchising can be a great opportunity for entrepreneurs who are looking to start a business with a proven system. It provides entrepreneurs with access to a large network, bulk discounts, and a sense of community. However, for entrepreneurs who are too entrepreneurial, franchising may not be the right fit. They may not be able to accept the limitations of the franchise system and may be better off starting their own business. No matter how attractive franchising is, it is important to remember that it is not a magic bullet. It takes hard work and dedication to make a business successful.This episode is sponsored by: FranBridge ConsultingTakeaways- Franchisees have a 92% success rate- You can start a franchise business on the side- The common denominators of successful franchise business ownersConnectjon@franbridgeconsulting.comhttps://franbridgeconsulting.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonostenson/https://www.facebook.com/JonOstenson1/Start your Podcast: https://marksavantmedia.com/Mark Savant: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-savant-ba777145/Quote“What would my life look like in 10 years if I don't take action now?” It is important to remember that we only have a finite amount of time and to make the most of it, we must take action now.” - Jon Ostenson Support the show

This week we're talking Personal Branding in Franchising. Why is it critical? How can our personal traits break down some walls with our professional contacts? How can we stop holding ourselves back from sharing something real about ourselves? In the influencer age, it's not your elevator pitch, but the content stream that matters. And, who has a great personal brand? We're naming names! Today's Rock Star panel: Emily George of Franchise Business Review, Danessa Itaya of Bio-One, Ingrid Schneider of Stay In Your Lane, and Thomas Scott of Home Run Franchises.

Jon Ostenson, founder, CEO and consultant at FranBridge Consulting, wasn't always involved in the world of franchising. After years in corporate America, he set out on an entrepreneurial path—even though, at the time, he wasn't quite sure what he wanted that path to look like. Six years ago, it brought him to ShelfGenie, a private company and national franchise, where he saw that franchising was more than a fast food-based world—it was one in which people from all backgrounds could succeed. Now, he focuses on helping to educate people on the opportunities available to them in non-food franchising. Via his company, the process is completely free for clients, and consultants assist them in narrowing the vast array of franchise opportunities down to their top 10 options, and then to their final decision. In this week's episode, Ostenson and Brilliant Thoughts host Tristan Ahumada discuss the difference between a franchise and a startup, the process of becoming a franchisee, the pros and cons—as well as what to look for—when starting a franchise and the benefits of “boring” businesses. Jon Ostenson is a consultant, investor, author and international speaker specializing in the area of non-food franchising. He serves as founder and CEO of FranBridge Consulting, and is the author of Non-Food Franchising: The Better Path to Business Ownership.

There's already plenty of healthy fear and anxiety when buying a franchise, regardless of the economic or political climate. While franchising provides a better, more predictable way for would-be entrepreneurs to get into business, it's not foolproof, and not every franchise is created equal. Now, imagine being one of the FIRST franchisees in an emerging brand several states away from the original tried-and-true location... and right before the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. This is Ashley's story. In this episode, we get into the good, the bad, and the ugly of starting a franchise right before the start of the pandemic and what she had to do, both mentally and in her business. She came out the other side to not only surviving, but thriving. Tune into this episode to learn how Ashley and her husband partnered with Perspire Sauna Studios to bring the benefits of infrared saunas to communities in a friendly, comfortable, spa-like atmosphere... as well as how she persevered during extremely tough times.

Leo Holtzman is the co-founder of SoCal Cantina and founder of Cocktail Conjuring, Inc. Leo first started tending bar in Orlando when he attended UCF triple majoring in Theatre, Psychology and Hospitality Management. Bartending was just a means to an end until he could make it as a full-time close-up magician. Upon graduation he moved back to Miami and worked as a magician/performer for various events and companies while working a few nights a week at Cadillac Ranch. Eventually he became the bar manager of Cadillac Ranch while the performing season was in a lull. In 2012, he wanted to take his talents to Las Vegas and saw that his best opportunity was to work for the new hip and chic hotel, SLS South Beach. SLS had/has plans for a large scale resort in Las Vegas set to open Labor Day weekend 2014. He landed an entry level job at SLS as a bar back at Katsuya's Dragon Lounge mixology bar. This was his first introduction to the world of “mixology”. He learned everything from the bottom and within 6 months was the head bartender/manager and was in charge of all normal duties of the bar program including cocktail design. During his time with SLS he also took on consulting and worked various events including the Lucky Rice festival and Bacardi Legacy competition. His talents did not go unnoticed and in 2014 he partnered with Patrick Gleber, owner of Tobacco Road, to open Cocktail Collection and put his magic career on hold. Cocktail Collection was the hottest bar in Miami, featuring a rotating original cocktail menu and local artist show cases. Cocktail Collection has received numerous accolades from various mediate outlets and critics including the only 5 star cocktail lounge/bar rating on YELP in the greater Miami area. It was loved by guests and critics, a rare feat in today's hospitality market. Then without notice Tobacco Road and Cocktail Collection were demolished to make way for the new high rises of Brickell. But Leo kept on bringing his cocktails and hospitality though Cocktail Conjuring events, pop-ups and consulting for select venues including Norwegian Cruise Line and The Palms Hotel and Spa. Then out of nowhere AJ Billapando contacted Leo with an idea. AJ had remembered one night at Cocktail Collection where he had the best cocktails of his life and a surreal experience of Leo performing close-up magic for a group of him and his friends. The cocktails and experience was unpretentious yet sophisticated- something he wanted SoCal to embody. After a brief call, the two met and came up with SoCal Cantina over night. They opened a week later in Brickell and were a wild success. SoCal Cantina offers out-of-this-world margaritas as well as some classics from Cocktail Collection menu (smoke fashion anyone??). The drinks pair perfectly with quite simply the best tacos you will ever have. Since our last conversation in February of 2021, SoCal Cantina has opened another location in Tuscaloosa, AL. They are currently looking at opportunities to open new locations in Las Vegas and Austin, TX. Check out episode 794 with Leo Holtzman as mentioned in today's episode!

Franchising is a unique business model where entrepreneurs own their own businesses while still adhering to the guidelines set by the franchisor. It can be a rewarding business model for both franchisor and franchisee, but it requires a deep understanding of the unique relationship between them.In his book The Franchise E Factor, Greg Nathan, an Australian author, outlines 6 stages of franchise relationships.While not all franchisees may experience these stages in a linear fashion, both franchisor and franchisee need to understand what they entail.Understanding these stages can help both franchisor and franchisee set realistic expectations and navigate challenges that may arise. By acknowledging that these stages are a normal part of the process, both parties can work together to overcome obstacles and achieve success.Tune in as Matt and Rick go through the 6 stages in detail.Key Takeaways- The Glee Stage (05:58)- The Fee Stage (07:41)- The Me Stage (10:50)- The Free Stage (12:03)- The See Stage (13:19)- The We Stage (15:28)Additional Resources:The Franchise E-factor: A Franchisors Guide to Managing the Franchise Relationship------ Alloy Personal Training- Learn About The Alloy Franchise Opportunity---------You can find the podcast on Apple, Google, Spotify, Stitcher, or wherever you listen to podcasts.If you haven't already, please rate and review the podcast on Apple Podcasts!

Justin Donald is back! Erik and Justin talk about everything from the importance of having coaches, why people think more money equals more freedom (and how to overcome that thinking), and much more! The truth is, most people get into franchising to have freedom from what they had experienced in their 9-5. The sad reality is that most in franchising ended up purchasing themselves a job. This episode will help you think at a higher level to assess what you need to do to be able to work ON your business rather than IN your business! Enjoy the episode!
