What the Heck is a Franchise Consultant? Chapter One

Every book starts with chapter one. In chapter one the setting is set, the main character is introduced and the plot begins. The excitement from the very first chapter should propel you into chapter two and so forth. By the time you’re in chapter 20, for example, you have more characters introduced, multiple settings and a thickened plot. Point is, every book starts with the very first chapter just like every journey in life starts at some point in time.

Franchise consultants are certified in helping people begin the exciting journey of writing their own book of entrepreneurship through franchising! In other words, franchise consultants consult with everyday people to get that first chapter written in marvelous fashion. The first chapter is the most difficult; therefore, thousands turn to Certified Franchise Consultants (CFC) who’ve been properly trained and certified to help people become franchise entrepreneurs. In addition, franchise consultants can also help connect people to funding sources to start their franchise business.

“Our clients are in the first chapter of creating a legacy for themselves and their families,” said Jason Elvin, CFC and founder of Legacy Franchise Consultants. “Very often, the first step is that initial conversation with a franchise consultant.” Elvin adds, “We have the unique opportunity to play a pivotal role in beginning one’s entrepreneurial journey, and although it can be fun and exciting, it is a role we take very seriously.”

One of the teaching moments franchise consultants have is to teach their clients not to compare themselves to others. Patrick Laforet, a leading international franchise recruiter and public speaker said, “Don’t compare your chapter one to someone else’s chapter twenty.” As mentioned earlier, an entrepreneur in their fifth year in business is writing chapter five; whereas, an individual on their very first call with a franchise consultant should focus on the excitement of starting their own wonderful novel of franchise ownership.

Franchise consulting can be a very rewarding business. Imagine helping others achieve the dream of writing their own entrepreneurial book full of franchising success all while building a rewarding business for yourself. “Entrepreneurs love talking with other entrepreneurs, which is why I love this job so much,” Elvin said.

Franchise consulting is a flexible, work-from-home business that can be very lucrative. For many, it is the perfect choice and they love that they can work from anywhere in the world, and all without the restrictions of a territory! Perhaps franchise consulting is for you.
