Dan Claps sits down in person at Voda Corporate Headquarters in Madison, Wisconsin with Jon Sibley, founder of TrueBuilt and technology partner with Voda. Jon shares how his background as a college and professional water polo player shaped the way he views entrepreneurship as the “ultimate team sport,” and how his path from tech sales to business school led him to discover a major software gap in commercial construction. After nearly buying a drywall company, he instead went all in on building better estimating technology for contractors.Dan and Jon also dive into TrueBuilt's acquisition of Capabuild, now True Restore, and how AI estimation, LiDAR scanning, 360 video, video-to-sketch, moisture maps, and stronger documentation help restoration contractors create better-supported estimates. They discuss why business owners need to delegate, how technology can free technicians to focus on the job site, and where TrueBuilt and True Restore are headed next as the platforms continue to bring AI, reality capture, and smarter estimating tools to construction and restoration.

Most people think franchising is about income replacement. At the high-net-worth level, the real conversation is about enterprise value. Because the operators who approach franchising seriously are not just trying to buy themselves a business. They are thinking about cash flow, unit economics, operational infrastructure, EBITDA growth, private equity demand, and whether the business can eventually become attractive to a larger buyer. And once you understand that, the way you evaluate franchising starts to change. Most franchise buyers don't miss the opportunity because they fail to recognize a good brand. They miss it because they evaluate the opportunity too narrowly. They look at the concept, the customer demand, and the upfront cost, but they do not always understand how to vet the system, read the disclosure data, identify red flags, or think through the exit before they get in. In this episode of Money School Elite, I sit down with Scott Jones of Franchise Guide Group to unpack how serious operators and high-net-worth investors should think about franchising as a wealth-building vehicle. Scott has owned 10 franchises himself, advised operators for more than 20 years, and worked across the franchisee, franchisor, and supplier sides of the industry. And in this conversation, he breaks down how to evaluate franchising through the lens of diligence, capital efficiency, scale, cash flow, and private equity exit potential.   About the Guest Scott Jones is the founder of Franchise Guide Group, where he helps high-achieving professionals, business owners, executives, and franchise operators evaluate franchise opportunities that align with their experience, goals, and long-term vision. With more than 30 years of business experience, Scott has worked as a CEO, franchise executive, entrepreneur, and multi-unit, multi-brand franchisee. He has helped hundreds of people explore franchising as a path to income diversification, career transition, business ownership, and greater personal freedom. Through Franchise Guide Group, Scott brings a practical, operator-level perspective to the franchise selection process, helping clients understand which opportunities fit their background, interests, capital, and desired outcomes.

Tough economic conditions over the past six years have taken a toll on the survival rate of small and medium-sized businesses, but franchises appear to have fared better. International data supplied by the Franchise Association of New Zealand (FANZ) indicates about 75 to 85 percent of franchises were still operating after five years, compared with about half of independent small businesses. Franchise Association of New Zealand CEO Katrina King says business is tough for everyone in this climate, but some sectors have been able to hold on. "I think with franchising, because of the breadth of industry and because it is in every part of New Zealand - there's going to be resilience."

Episode 6.19 features franchise consultant Matt Stevens, who joins David Mandell to unpack the fundamentals of franchising and why it can be an attractive wealth-building strategy for physicians. Stevens explains that franchising is less about buying a brand and more about gaining access to a proven system, support structure, and community. With thousands of franchise opportunities across dozens of industries, physicians have a wide range of options, many of which can be tailored to their time constraints and financial goals. A core theme of the conversation is the concept of 'buying down the learning curve.' Instead of spending years making costly mistakes building a business from scratch, franchisees leverage established playbooks, training systems, and peer networks. This is particularly appealing to busy professionals like physicians who may lack the time to build and test systems independently. The discussion also highlights how franchise ownership can be structured around passive or semi-passive involvement, often through hiring operators or partnering with family members. The episode also explores due diligence, risk factors, and long-term exit strategies. Stevens emphasizes the importance of reviewing the Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD), especially Item 20, and speaking with existing franchisees to validate the opportunity. Success ultimately comes down to engagement—following the system, leveraging support, and committing to the model. With the right approach, franchising can provide not only income but also scalable growth and a meaningful exit, making it a compelling addition to a physician's overall wealth strategy. Franchising accelerates business success by providing a proven system and reducing the learning curve. Physicians can participate in franchising even with limited time through structured, semi-passive ownership models. Thorough due diligence—especially speaking with existing franchisees—is critical to identifying the right opportunity.

Jack shares his journey from growing up on a Montana ranch to building a scalable business in one of the most overlooked essential industries in the country. What started as hands-on work in the water well industry evolved into a mission-driven company helping entrepreneurs build sustainable local businesses while modernizing an aging trade. Throughout the conversation, Jack breaks down the operational side of scaling a service business, the importance of systems and SOPs, and how innovation often comes from empowering independent operators closest to the work. From custom-built service trucks to simplifying installation processes, 180 Water is creating efficiencies in an industry that has historically resisted change.

Step into Episode 213 of On The Delo as Delo sits down with Cianna and Mike, the husband-and-wife team behind ATL (All the LUV) Wings, to unpack how a commercial cleaning company pivoted into a growing Arizona wing brand built on “all the love.” From losing contracts when the economy crashed to opening their first Chandler location with zero restaurant experience and a whole lot of faith, they share a real, unfiltered look at betting on themselves, their marriage, and their community. If you're building a food concept, scaling a brand, or just obsessed with great wings and better stories, this one hits on grit, growth, and doing one thing exceptionally well.In this conversation, Delo digs into how ATL went from an idea Mike brought home one day (“we're gonna do chicken”) to lines wrapped around the building, customers washing dishes on day two, and a 13‑location footprint powered by word of mouth and simple, focused operations. Cianna breaks down the realities of signing that first lease with no credentials, watching rent and build-out drain their savings, and then discovering that 82 percent of their business is carryout—so they don't need flashy 4,000‑square‑foot boxes to win. Mike shares how he built ATL's sauce lineup by listening to guests, experimenting in their home kitchen until he destroyed carpets and drapes, and eventually scaling into big kettles and a dedicated farm relationship that guarantees their wing volume even when prices spike.They also get real about the double‑edged sword of franchising—why no one will ever treat the brand like its founders do, why some money isn't worth the headache, and how they balance Cianna's love of simplicity with Mike's drive to “have money with problems” instead of problems without money. You'll hear how they collaborate with concepts like Zoyo/Froyo Love using ATL Kool‑Aid flavors, use smart specials to survive brutal Arizona summers, and stay excited about taking ATL outside the state with new deals in places like Las Vegas. Along the way, they talk Southern roots and culture, being a true “destination” in B‑centers, giving back to loyal guests and even the homeless who help behind the building, plus the non‑negotiables that keep them grounded—like Cianna's four‑mile walks and Mike's simple rule that waking up is the first win of the day.Chapter Guide (Timestamps):(0:00 - 1:49) Delo's intro, Risky Business book preview, and meeting Cianna & Mike.(1:49 - 6:15) From commercial cleaning to chicken wings and building a marriage‑and‑business partnership.(6:15 - 13:25) Signing the first lease, Chandler launch, and opening weekend chaos that turned into a community moment.(13:25 - 17:30) Wing shortages, price spikes, and how ATL secured supply while simplifying the menu and footprint.(17:30 - 21:09) Sauce experiments at home, scaling production, and dividing roles between back‑of‑house flavor and back‑end business.(21:09 - 26:33) Franchising wins and challenges, customer realities, and why not all money is good money.(26:33 - 30:44) Hidden‑gem locations across Arizona, B‑center strategy, and early steps into new markets like Vegas and Gilbert.(30:44 - 33:13) Summer survival strategies, cutting back, creative collabs like Kool‑Aid frozen yogurt, and staying visible.(33:13 - 37:16) Wingstock dominance, five straight wins, and the surreal feeling of becoming the “Michael Jordan” of wings.(37:16 - end) How many wings is enough, rapid‑fire fun, local food favorites, and Delo's close on why ATL's story matters.

In this episode of the Franchise Fit Podcast, Lance Graulich sits down at the International Franchise Association in Las Vegas with Kristin Denzer, Founder and CEO of Tierra Encantada, one of the fastest-growing childcare franchise brands in the early education space. Kristin shares how Tierra Encantada is redefining traditional daycare through Spanish immersion, a global meal program, full-time teacher career paths, and a strong recurring revenue model.

Health-focused franchising is becoming an increasingly important part of the modern business landscape as consumers pay closer attention to what they eat, how products are made, and the impact those choices have on their overall well-being. While many brands position themselves as "healthy," fewer are built on a foundation that truly supports that claim across every aspect of the business. Tara Gilad has built her brand around that distinction. As Founder and President of Vitality Bowls, Tara has taken a deeply personal mission and transformed it into a scalable franchise system. The brand was born out of necessity when her daughter was diagnosed with severe food allergies, creating an immediate need for safe, high-quality food options. What began as a solution for her family quickly revealed a larger gap in the market. Health-focused franchising requires more than offering better ingredients. It requires a commitment to transparency, consistency, and operational discipline. As brands grow, maintaining those standards becomes more challenging, especially when expanding through franchising. Systems must be strong enough to ensure that every location delivers the same level of quality and experience. For Vitality Bowls, that commitment starts with the product itself. The brand emphasizes clean, non-toxic ingredients and avoids many of the shortcuts commonly used in the industry. This approach not only differentiates the brand but also builds trust with customers who are increasingly aware of what goes into their food. However, product quality alone is not enough to sustain franchise growth. Franchise systems must support both consistency and scalability. This includes training, supply chain management, and clear operational guidelines that allow franchisees to execute effectively. Without these systems in place, growth can lead to inconsistencies that weaken the brand. Tara's approach highlights the importance of building that infrastructure early. By focusing on strong systems, clear processes, and ongoing support, the brand has been able to expand while maintaining alignment across locations. This level of support is critical in franchising, where each unit represents the brand in a different market. Ford Saeks often emphasizes that systems only work when they are followed and reinforced. In franchising, this becomes even more important because franchisees are independent operators who must balance their own business goals with the requirements of the brand. Alignment between franchisor and franchisee is essential for long-term success. Another key factor in health-focused franchising is authenticity. Consumers are increasingly skeptical of marketing claims, especially in the health and wellness space. Brands that overpromise or rely on misleading messaging risk losing credibility. On the other hand, brands that are transparent about their ingredients, processes, and values are more likely to build lasting relationships with their customers. This focus on authenticity extends beyond food. Tara's work with MyFlexy reflects a broader commitment to non-toxic, effective products across multiple categories. By applying the same principles to both food and wellness, she is creating a consistent brand philosophy that resonates with today's consumers. Franchise growth also depends on people. From the corporate team to franchisees and frontline staff, the success of a brand is shaped by those who represent it every day. Building the right team, fostering strong relationships, and maintaining a shared vision all contribute to a healthier and more sustainable business. Leadership plays a central role in this process. Founders who remain connected to their mission and actively support their teams are better positioned to guide their brands through growth and change. This leadership helps ensure that the original purpose behind the business is not lost as it scales. Health-focused franchising is not just about expansion. It is about building a system that delivers value consistently, supports franchisees effectively, and creates a positive impact for customers. Brands that can achieve this balance are more likely to stand out in a crowded market and sustain their growth over time. Tara Gilad's journey demonstrates that when a business is built on a clear purpose, supported by strong systems, and driven by a commitment to quality, it can grow in a way that remains true to its origins while continuing to evolve.

Send us Fan MailSixty seconds of total silence doesn't sound that long… until you're standing on a Persian rug making eye contact with some of the most famous investors in America.This week, Megan Pando joins me to talk about what Shark Tank actually feels like from the inside — the nerves, the pressure, the mindset shifts, and what happened after the cameras stopped rolling.But this episode goes way deeper than TV.We talk about:✨ Building Makers Social through uncertainty, failed deals, and brutal “in-between” seasons✨ Getting ghosted in business and the stories we create when people don't close the loop✨ Why scaling fast isn't always the goal✨ Franchising vs. corporate growth and protecting culture while growing✨ Being a single mom entrepreneur✨ Handling criticism without losing yourself✨ Grief, emo music, bravery, freedom, and redefining success on your own termsThis conversation is honest, funny, emotional, and probably way too relatable if you've ever questioned yourself while building something big.And maybe the biggest takeaway?Trying new things while you're bad at them might actually be the whole point.

Dan Claps sits down with Steve Hart, co-founder and CEO of PMI, for a conversation about entrepreneurship, resilience, and building one of the largest property management franchise systems in the country. Steve shares how his entrepreneurial mindset started long before adulthood—mowing lawns, taking care of pets, and constantly finding ways to earn money as a kid. After realizing corporate life wasn't for him, Steve eventually transitioned into entrepreneurship full-time, navigating multiple failures and difficult seasons along the way before co-founding PMI during the 2008 financial crisis.Throughout the episode, Steve breaks down how PMI identified a fragmented property management industry filled with mom-and-pop operators and turned it into a scalable national franchise brand built on systems, technology, and recurring revenue. Dan and Steve discuss the evolution of property management, the power of national branding, and why recurring monthly revenue creates such an attractive business model for franchise owners. Steve also explains PMI's unique “five pillars” approach to property management—including residential, commercial, HOA, multifamily, and short-term rentals—which gives franchisees multiple ways to scale and grow their businesses over time.The conversation also dives into the realities of entrepreneurship behind the scenes, including the importance of having support from a spouse or partner during difficult moments. Dan reflects on how one of his earliest franchise placements with PMI helped shape his own journey into franchising, while Steve shares why he still believes PMI is only getting started despite operating in nearly every state. Whether you're considering franchise ownership, exploring property management, or looking for insight from entrepreneurs who have weathered decades of ups and downs, this episode delivers practical lessons on growth, persistence, and long-term thinking.

In this episode, Deb Coviello sits down with Shaun Grove, CEO of Stride Fitness and seasoned fitness franchising executive. Shaun's career path is anything but conventional — from playing college and professional football, to practicing law, to becoming an FBI agent, to scaling Club Pilates from 11 locations to 150+ under Exponential Fitness. He shares what it really takes to build a franchise system that lasts, why the "grow fast or die slow" mindset can be dangerous, and why he believes the future of fitness lies at the intersection of cardio, strength training, and recovery — all under one roof. Whether you're a C-suite leader, an aspiring entrepreneur, or a fitness enthusiast, this episode is packed with hard-won wisdom about leadership, systems, and building something that truly scales. Episode Highlights: 9:01 — Acquiring Stride Fitness and Leading Through a Messy Transition Shaun describes how he took over Stride Fitness, which had 17 struggling locations, and gave franchisees a transparent choice: evolve, go independent, or exit. His willingness to help owners on their terms — working with landlords and lenders — set the tone for the kind of leader he is and the culture he was building. 11:47 — Why a Law Degree Makes You a Better Leader (In Any Field) Shaun reflects on how the critical thinking, communication, and problem-solving skills developed in law school have been invaluable across every role he's held — from litigator to FBI agent to franchise CEO. A reminder that foundational skills transfer far beyond the career path you started on. 17:58 — The Biggest Lesson in Franchising: You're in the Royalty Business Shaun delivers one of the most important insights in franchising: your success as a franchisor is entirely tied to the success of your franchisees. Selling territories is not the goal — getting those locations open, profitable, and sustainable is. This mindset shift is what helped Club Pilates grow responsibly and predictably. 25:38 — The Future of Fitness: Cardio + Strength + Recovery in One Place Shaun explains the vision behind the redesigned Stride Fitness model — a 2,000–2,800 sq ft boutique studio blending cardio, strength training, and recovery (massage chairs, compression therapy, red light therapy, and myofascial release) into a single membership. He argues that strength training is the missing piece in most fitness routines, especially for longevity. Shaun Grove is the CEO of STRIDE Fitness, a boutique studio concept blending cardio, strength, and recovery under one roof. A former attorney and FBI agent turned fitness franchising executive, Shaun previously served as President of Club Pilates — growing it from 11 locations to 700+ worldwide — before acquiring and redesigning STRIDE with a bold new vision for the future of fitness.
