Gastro-Gaming: Fine-Dining meets Social Games and Technology to Form the Ultimate Hospitality Franchise with Social Gaming Group’s CEO Troy Warfield Eye On Franchising

    • Entrepreneurship

Who says making money can’t be about fun and games?

We’re no strangers to the concept of sports franchises, traditional sports or e-sports, and we’re also quite familiar with casinos and other businesses that form the gaming industry.

This well isn’t about to dry up anytime soon because, Hey!

People love playing games! Games make people happy.

And what brings happiness can be profitable.

On this episode, we’ve got Troy Warfield showing us how they’re taking the sports/gaming industry to a whole new level with their franchise!

Troy Warfield is the CEO of The Social Gaming Group, and a Board Director of Surf Lakes. Other notable positions he’s had include President, International for Topgolf, and Executive Board Member of British Airways.

So, how is Troy and The Social Gaming Group taking the gaming world be storm?

Troy and his team came up with the idea of mashing fine-dining with social games, like darts and shuffleboard, supplemented by state-of-the-art technology and unparalleled service, to create shared happiness for their guests, franchisees, shareholders, partners, community and employees alike.

Besides fun and games, they’re in the business of delivering great financial returns and opportunities to their franchisees. The brand thrives because they attract social adults who want to have fun, and because they’re valuable to client companies who invest in Social Gaming Group’s services with the goal of building a rich culture and better connections.

Troy and his team are constantly on the move, in search of new gaming concepts, in order to expand their reach and bring happiness to even more people.

What’s really their USP? Is this concept future-proof? What other factors favor this brand’s success?

Do games and moving towards financial freedom perfectly match your interests and goals?
