All Things Considered Franchising Podcast with Red Boswell, President of IFPG

On today’s episode, host Scotty Milas speaks with Red Boswell.

Red is the President of IFPG (International Franchise Professionals Group), a membership and training organization that supports franchise consultants, franchise owners, and suppliers in the franchising industry. He is widely known for his expertise in franchising and his commitment to connecting franchise professionals and helping them succeed.

Scotty and Red begin by discussing the state of franchising and the importance of supporting franchise professionals. Boswell highlights the success of the recent IFPG retreat and the importance of connecting franchise professionals on a personal level. As Red states, “Our purpose at IPG is to connect franchise professionals, not just have them read an email or see a page on our website, but connect eye to eye, human to human."

He also discusses the current trends in franchising, including the interest in low-investment opportunities and the growth of the health space. Boswell emphasizes the importance of ethics and integrity in the
consulting industry and the need for consultants to provide value and support to their clients.
Red explains it to Scotty like this. He says, "More people have 100,000 than have a million, right? So those low investments are always going to be moving at a big pace."

He also addresses the challenges facing the franchising industry, such as government regulations and
the California ruling, and the role of organizations like IFPG in advocating for small businesses
and protecting the rights of franchise owners.
