It’s #MetaMonday on the Facebook Franchise Podcast!

Podcast host Jack Monson joins Mike McDowell, Certified Facebook Ad Buyer & Business Manager at  Social Joey, to discuss Facebook’s move to Meta and what it means for Franchises. We go beyond just advertising opportunities and explore what it will mean to have your brand fully immersed in the Metaverse.

It’s time to have conversations now with your leadership team about investing in your team and keep everyone’s minds open about digitizing and monetizing your brand’s assets. Feel free to share this podcast with your C-Suite!

And we’ll start the show with an invitation for you to attend the IFA’s Marketing Workshop on December 9th at 2pm ET. This virtual learning event is free for all IFA members to discuss Marketing trends and network with other Franchise industry pros. If you’re not an IFA member, drop us a DM for an invitation.

Today’s guest is Austin Samuelson, co-founder of Tacos 4 Life. Austin and his wife Ashton got into franchising and the restaurant business in a very different way. They started with a mission of feeding starving children and decided a food franchise is the best way to serve that mission.

Every time they sell a taco, salad, quesadilla, or other menu items, they donate one meal to a child in need. Over 21 million meals have already been donated!
