About Chris
In all of my years of owning businesses and guiding others to do so, I have found that this process is very individual. What is right for me may not be right for you. As a result, the start of our work together is helping me to understand YOU – your goals, your aspirations, your dreams. Together, we will paint a picture of your ideal business.
I will then introduce you to businesses that match your vision. The franchise companies that we will evaluate are among the premier franchise brands in America today. I have partnered with FranChoice to have access to a select group of franchise brands that possess stellar unit economics, proven support systems and are well positioned in growing industries.
We continue our work together as we walk through a patient and diligent assessment of each franchise brand to ensure that you are discovering the perfect opportunity for yourself.
Throughout each step of this process, you and I will work side by side so that I can share with you my experiences and guide you to make educated, thoughtful decisions.
My Mission: Guiding Others to Enjoy Business Ownership:
About 20 years ago, I transitioned from ‘job’ to ‘business ownership’ and never looked back. Since then, I’ve owned, operated, grown and sold businesses in six different industries; invested in and run franchises and developed a startup company.
For the past 10 years, I have guided MBA students to explore business ownership through a series of Entrepreneurship courses that I teach at Carnegie Mellon University’s Tepper School of Business.
Today, I spend most of my time consulting, one on one, with individuals who want to explore the many benefits of franchise ownership. I help individuals invest in businesses that perfectly match their goals, skills and interests. Read about some of their franchise successes here.
