Since 1987, FranNet and the SBDC have celebrated success story after success story through a committed, national partnership. Even with the exceptional service both companies have provided for local businesses and entrepreneurs, FranNet has found a way to strengthen and deepen our relationship for the betterment of all clients. The goal of FranFit is to offer a deeper understanding of an ever-widening audience, provide tools and resources, and assist in educational opportunities at both a local and national level.
The IFA’s Educational Foundation’s research shows that over 800,000 franchised businesses provide 9 million jobs and contribute $900 billion to the GDP. FranNet’s experts work with select franchisors and evaluate various types of business opportunities in the marketplace today. Their proprietary assessment tool focuses on the client’s behavior profile, risk tolerance, communication style, financial background and other crucial factors. SBDC advisors will be part of FranNet’s counseling process that uses expert advice to guide people to their personal and professional goals.
After the program is in place, the SBDC advisors will be fully equipped to provide guidance to individuals in the franchising sector with the knowledge, assistance, and expertise of FranNet consultants. This service will, in turn, contribute to the SBDC’s necessary consulting hours and implement a more stable form of income for centers across the U.S. This new program will also allow ASBDC counselors to validate the client’s eventual local economic impact.
Open your eyes to what opportunities exist for your clients, FranFit is always available for on-going education.
