Thinking about owning a franchise that isn't food-related? John Ostenson shares smart ways to get started. From choosing the right industry to funding and support, this episode covers everything you need to know to launch a non-food franchise confidently.

Have you ever considered opening a franchise? Maybe you're looking for a new investment opportunity, or you're attracted to a business model where all the systems are already up and running. Today's guest breaks down what you need to know beforehand, the best industries to invest in, and what separates successful owners from the rest.   Jon Ostenson is the Founder and CEO of FranBridge Consulting, an Inc. 5000 company and a top 1% franchise consultant. He's also the author of the bestselling book Non-Food Franchising. Jon draws on his experience as a former Inc. 500 Franchise President and Multi-Brand Franchisee to help his clients select their franchise investments. Jon is a frequent contributor on franchising for publications such as Forbes, Inc., and Bloomberg.  Why Invest in a Franchise The franchise model offers some advantages over starting your own business. For one, the business has already proven to be successful. The franchise has a playbook for what works and what doesn't–all you need to do is execute it. You also have a community of other franchisees running the same business, where you can learn from each other and exchange best practices.  What Makes a Successful Franchise Owner Some entrepreneurs struggle to run a franchise because they don't like following the playbook; they aren't coachable or willing to learn. As an owner, you need to trust the franchise that you bought into. The most successful franchise owners are the ones who follow the system the closest. You can innovate within the system, but don't try to reinvent the wheel. The second-most important characteristic is to be good with people. If you're a good person to work for and with, everything runs more smoothly. Being well-liked can even turn into a competitive advantage. Enjoy this episode with Jon Ostenson… Soundbytes 5:10-5:35 “The model has been proven out in other markets. You've got a playbook. It's all about going out and executing. So you're essentially starting on third base. You've got bulk buying of services or products, you get those synergies, but you also get a community of other franchisees, other people running the same business, day in, day out, in their markets, and you're constantly learning from each other and exchanging best practices. You're in business for yourself and not by yourself.”  18:43-19:10 “Our top performers had two characteristics. One, they were good with people, and that's just business 101. They're someone that people want to work for, work with. No, they don't have to be gregarious, but they're decent people. And then secondly, they're willing to follow a system. They've got the humility to say, hey, there's a reason why I bought into a franchise. I'm going to come in and trust you. The ones that follow the system the closest were most successful.” Quotes “For most people, franchising is a better path to business ownership, because it allows you to have those training wheels.” “You've got to be someone that people want to work with.” “If it were easy, everybody would be a business owner.” “As long as you can be someone that people want to work for and find your competitive advantage.” Links mentioned in this episode: From Our Guest Website: https://franbridgeconsulting.com/ Connect with Jon Ostenson on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonostenson/ Connect with brandiD Download our free guide to learn 16 crucial website updates that attract more leads and convert visitors into clients: https://thebrandid.com/website-tweaks/ Ready to elevate your digital presence with a powerful brand or website?

Beyond Food Franchises: Exploring Non-Food Opportunities While food franchises are undeniably our most popular category, franchising extends far beyond the realm of food. Over the years, we've featured numerous exceptional franchises in the service industry. These businesses, though often highly profitable, present unique marketing challenges. Our podcast begins with a discussion inspired by Dr. Martin J. McDermott's LinkedIn article, "You Had Me at Hello: The Power of the Follow-Up." This piece highlights the critical role of post-service communication in fostering customer loyalty. Using compelling anecdotes—like a dentist's thoughtful follow-up call or a repairman's check-in after servicing a refrigerator—Dr. McDermott underscores how small gestures can leave a lasting impact. He also introduces the RATER model (Reliability, Assurance, Tangibles, Empathy, Responsiveness) as a framework for assessing service quality, emphasizing how even brief interactions can strengthen customer relationships. Drawing from his expertise as a marketing professor and franchising authority, he concludes by celebrating the often-overlooked importance of a simple greeting and timely follow-up. Next, we sit down with Jon Ostenson, a consultant, entrepreneur, and author specializing in non-food franchising. As a former Inc. 500 Franchise President and multi-brand franchisee, Jon offers invaluable perspectives on this sector. We explore insights from his latest book, Non-Food Franchising: The Better Path to Franchise Ownership. Finally, in the second segment of the episode, we feature an excerpt from our celebrated podcast series, Great Quotes in Franchising.

“I love to go out there speaking and educating–on top of the franchising. It's a great time to be exploring franchising. Our placements year-to-date are up over 50%, which was up 50% over the previous year. Whether you are thinking of switching careers or getting a side hustle going or looking at expanding your investment portfolio, I just think the time is ripe. A lot of people coming out of Covid have said, ‘Now's the time to have a little more control of my life. I've always thought about business ownership, but it is risky.' The fact is, working for somebody may be even riskier. There has definitely been a large shake-up out there. I often give talks to investors about franchising as an asset. There are tax benefits and all kinds of benefits that come from business ownership. I love being able to help others and later hear them tell their success stories.” Jon Ostenson is a certified franchise consultant, owner/investor, author and international speaker specializing in the area of non-food franchising.

Jon Ostenson Jon is a multi-brand franchisee of 5 fast growing franchises located in Atlanta, Minneapolis, and Miami, a top 1% global franchise consultant, the best-selling author of Non-Food Franchising: The Better Path to Business Ownership, and the former President of ShelfGenie, an Inc. 500 franchise with 200+ locations.   He is a shining example of the success that can be achieved when someone follows their dreams. Seven years ago, while serving as the VP of Sales for Carter's Inc., responsible for $350M+ in annual sales, and after 20+ years in corporate America, Jon did the unthinkable and walked away while at the top of his career to pursue his dream of becoming an entrepreneur—even though, at the time, he wasn't quite sure what he wanted that path to look like.   His risk paid off, as he ended up in the industry he has dubbed ‘non-food franchising', where he has had tremendous success, which has given him the autonomy many entrepreneurs desire, allowing him to commit over 90% of his time to helping others realize their own aspirations of freedom and generational wealth creation through business ownership.   Through his company FranBridge Consulting, Jon has helped thousands of entrepreneurs and investors understand all aspects of non-food franchising and has introduced them to opportunities from the 600+ high-growth brands that he represents.    Jon also frequently contributes to publications such as Forbes, Inc., Bloomberg, The Franchise Journal, and Franchise Connect, where he writes about franchising and franchise investments. Summary   Franchising opportunities overview @ 0:00 Jon outlined the benefits of franchising for new business owners, including starting with an established brand, playbook, and support system to leverage decades of expertise and avoid reinventing the wheel. Benefits of franchising for new business owners @ 6:00 Jon argued franchising provides numerous advantages, such as guidance from franchisor experts and peer franchisees exchanging best practices, ensuring product-market fit and optimized operations and marketing from the start.

This week on the DealQuest podcast, we have impressive guest, Jon Ostenson on. Jon is the CEO of FranBridge Consulting, a top 1% franchise consultant, and the best-selling author of Non-Food Franchising: The Better Path to Ownership. With over 35 years of experience as a successful entrepreneur, professional negotiator, and attorney, Jon draws on his background as a former Inc 500 franchise president and multi-brand franchisee to help his clients select their franchise investments. He is a frequent contributor on franchising to publications such as Forbes and Bloomberg, and his goal is to help businesses achieve deal-driven growth.FRANCHISING AS A BUSINESS MODELFranchising is not something we've commonly discussed on the DealQuest Podcast, but Jon's insights and experience in franchising offers us substantial information on franchising. Franchising is a business model that allows individuals to own and operate their own business under the established brand and system of a larger parent company, known as the franchisor. Jon recognizes the appeal in franchising as a business model with many benefits for aspiring entrepreneurs. Jon views franchising as “starting on 3rd base”, which is effectively leveraging an established system and framework provided by franchisors. It works, however, and allows entrepreneurs to bypass the challenges of building a business from scratch, providing them with a head start in their entrepreneurial journey. Offering new and different freedom and control than building an entirely new business from the ground up. FOOD AND NON-FOOD FRANCHISINGWhen we think of a franchise, we commonly think of food, such as fast-food restaurants like McDonald's or Subway – which can be a lucrative choice for those looking to go into franchising. Jon argues, however, that non-food franchising can require less capital upfront, fewer employees, less operating hours, and be less susceptible to consumer whims, leading to lighter investment and higher margins. By looking outside of the food industry, potential franchisees are provided a diverse array of investment options. Non-food franchises encompass a wide range of industries, including: Retail Service Healthcare ...and more! THE BENEFITS AND CHALLENGES OF FRANCHISINGJon's passion for helping individuals achieve freedom through business ownership shines, but he also recognizes that like any deal, it has both benefits and challenges. The benefits of franchising include the ability to build an asset with potential exit value, tax benefits, and the opportunity to leverage a proven business model with support from the franchisor. Franchising also allows for diversification of a business portfolio and can provide a head start on starting a business with support, advertising, and a proven model. There are also challenges, however, associated with franchising. These include the potential for individual failure within the system, the need for a significant upfront investment, and the requirement to follow the franchisor's system and guidelines. Additionally, there may be challenges in securing financing for the franchise, and there is always a risk of business failure, as with any entrepreneurial endeavor.
