A note from the founder
Growing a franchise brand can be lonely and overwhelming. The good news? You're not alone.

Whatever you're facing, chances are someone has already solved it, or is working through it right now. The best part of any conference is the networking and the people you connect with.

I've experienced this first-hand at countless conferences in the US. My wish is to connect all of you together, so we can work through the solutions side by side.

Ten tables. Two rounds. Real conversation.

Most franchise events are expo floors and sales pitches. The Brand Edition is built around facilitated roundtables, where ten business owners sit with one expert partner and work through a challenge they all share.
