Franchise Solutions’ Business Directory Showcases a Concept in the Recession-Resistant and Rewarding Franchise Consulting Industry
Written by: Jocelyn Chavez, Franchise Solutions
Widespread corporate layoffs and a lackluster job market have led many unemployed individuals to abandon their job search and pursue other opportunities. Franchise ownership, in particular, is proving to be an appealing option for a growing number of people. As a result, franchise consulting companies that help aspiring franchise owners determine their ideal franchise, are experiencing increased demand. Franchise Solutions’ business directory features concepts, like the Franchise Alliance business opportunity, that enable people to own their own franchise consulting business and become part of a thriving industry that withstands economic fluctuations.
"Franchise Alliance is a franchise consulting company whose owners help people identify the franchise that is the best match for them, as well as helping independent companies become franchises. As a result, our owners experience the personal satisfaction that comes from helping others achieve their goals, while enjoying the rewards of owning a very low overhead business," Dan Prechtel, the founder and president of Franchise Alliance, explained. "This is also one of the businesses that performs even better in a struggling economy."
An Affordable, Home-Based Business that Offers Sought-After Services
In addition to owning a recession-resistant business that features low operating costs, Franchise Alliance consultants also benefit from joining an industry that continues to experience tremendous growth. "In the last five years alone, the percent of franchise buyers who have used franchise consultants has grown from 5% to 29%," Mike Reis, who owns and operates his own Franchise Alliance franchise consulting business, observed. "That’s almost 600% growth in our industry! I don’t know of any industry that has experienced that level of growth."
Along with owning an in-demand business, that attracts a vast audience of prospective franchisees, Franchise Alliance consultants also benefit from owning a business that easily adapts to their lifestyle, "Consultants have the flexibility to start this business on a full-time basis, or on a part-time basis while maintaining their current position," Reis said. "Consultants can operate this business from their home or a small office, requiring only a phone, fax and computer." The affordable, proven business system requires neither employees, nor inventory, and no travel is necessary. "Also, Franchise Alliance, Inc…does not charge royalties," Reis added.
A Leader in the Franchise Consulting Industry
Franchise Alliance’s commitment to excellence has helped make it the most successful franchise consulting company in the industry, with consultants in the United States, Canada and Europe. "Franchise Alliance has relationships with the most and the best franchise companies in the industry… that have the best success rates," Prechtel said. "We work with more of Entrepreneur magazine’s Top 500 franchises than anyone else, and we continue to add new franchise companies to our portfolio."
"Franchise Alliance consultants can focus prospective franchisees on the best opportunities available…because we’ve already done the research for them…saving them a great deal of time and effort...This puts Franchise Alliance consultants in a better position to provide the best help to the most people," Prechtel said. Under the company’s Franchise Launch Program, Franchise Alliance consultants can also help businesses become franchises; which provides Franchise Alliance consultants with an additional potential revenue stream.
Franchise Alliance consultants receive comprehensive training and support, so prior industry experience is not necessary to qualify. Prospective Franchise Alliance consultants should possess strong communication and organization skills, a strong desire to help others, the ability to manage business relationships and the willingness to learn and follow a proven system.
