What happens when you invest emotionally in a poorly located restaurant, nearly flunk out of college, and then land a transformative career at Jimmy John's? Gregg Majewski, the visionary behind Craveworthy Brands, joins us to share his incredible journey and the tough lessons he's learned along the way. Gregg's story is a testament to the power of taking risks and believing in oneself, as he candidly recounts his path from near failure to a life-altering opportunity in the restaurant industry. Listen as we explore the art of building successful franchise teams and why betting on your own potential can unlock unforeseen opportunities.

Gregg offers a treasure trove of insights into the dynamics of franchising, emphasizing the importance of hiring motivated individuals and nurturing franchisee relationships. Discover unique strategies that helped Jimmy John’s stand out, including transitioning from single to multi-unit operations while maintaining brand integrity.

As we look towards the future, Gregg shares his ambitious plans to revolutionize the restaurant sector by 2025, focusing on technology, consumer packaged goods, real estate, and franchise development.
