What does it take to franchise a business? If you own a successful business, you've probably thought that a time or two. Franchising is a great option, but it's not easy. Successful franchise models are systematized and replicable and it takes a lot of work to get a business to that point!

 

Today I sit down with Brandon Cerrito and Eric Anderson of The Carpet Chemist to dive deep into their first experience in franchising. We talk about the process of franchise development, the do's and don'ts of training franchisees, and when and why you should be picky as a franchisor when awarding new franchises.

 

If you're a new franchisor, an emerging brand, or thinking about franchising your business, this episode is for you! Take a listen and learn from someone who is right in the thick of the franchising process!
