    A Company That Cares For Your Most Valued Possessions... Your Home And Family

    Ryan Parsons, CEO of Evive Brands, describes how he and his brother started a company called "Brothers That Just Do Gutters," initially operating as a single location with their brother handling all the work. As they built the business together, it eventually grew into a successful franchise with over 100 franchisees across 400 territories. Evive Brands is a caring partner in your family's journey towards a healthier, happier life. Evive's trusted family of services include Executive Home Care, Assisted Living Locators, Grasons Estate Sales & Business Liquidations, and The Brothers That Just Do Gutters! Ryan emphasizes that aspiring franchise owners should first perform a self-assessment and "gut check." Success often depends more on personal leadership skills than the franchise model itself. Many franchise failures result from poor leadership, despite having proven blueprints. To succeed, individuals should focus on improving their leadership, management, and interviewing skills through books, podcasts, and other resources. Ryan offers tips and advice for potential franchise buyers, emphasizing the importance of self-reflection and leadership skills. He suggests that successful franchisees thrive due to strong leadership, while failures often stem from weak personal management. He advises immersing oneself in leadership resources, like books and podcasts, to enhance skills in interviewing and management.

With analytics and a flexible selection of 20-30 additional menu items, the brand ensures profitability by optimizing menu mix and food costs. Mark talks about how Southern Grounds collaborates with preservation architects and designers to honor the history and character of buildings and communities, often using renovations to spark revitalization across neighborhoods. Their approach makes each coffeehouse a cornerstone of local redevelopment. Mark is seeking franchisees with passion for community, coffee & culinary excellence. He looks for entrepreneurial candidates who appreciate hospitality, sustainable cooking, and seasonal flavors.

    How To Build A Restaurant Brand That Can Truly Grow And Scale

    Renowned for creating award-winning restaurant concepts, Chris Tripoli has lent his expertise to projects across the US and internationally. He teaches courses on restaurant operations for the Small Business Development Centers and is a Food Service Consultants Society International member. As a regular speaker at industry conferences and contributor to RestaurantOwner.com since 1998, Chris also hosts the podcast “Corner Booth.” Chris discusses how some successful big brands become complacent, failing to continually question and improve. This acceptance of mediocrity is dangerous for long-term success. The speaker emphasizes the importance of avoiding mediocrity, as brands that lose focus on customer needs and fail to innovate often face leadership changes or get acquired, ultimately prioritizing profits over guest satisfaction. He also emphasizes three key points for franchise success, as well as discussing various strategies for structuring an exit as an independent restaurant owner. Beyond selling to a group looking to franchise, other options include selling to someone interested in growing the concept further. Additionally, "inside deals" are becoming popular, where owners sell to key employees or investors already involved in the business.

They highlight franchising as a safer route to entrepreneurship, where franchisors have already made and learned from mistakes, providing a structured framework for new business owners. They participate in a "one-minute brand dash," where they briefly highlight 11 different brands in a rapid-fire speed round. Doug and D’Wayne discuss how the top-performing franchisees in this home service company share a strong focus on customer service. They are comfortable working with people, especially in customers' homes, which are considered personal sanctuaries. While prior sales or marketing experience isn't necessary, being at ease in conversations and interacting with clients is a key trait they look for in candidates. They add that younger people, in their twenties and thirties, are increasingly jumping into entrepreneurship and franchise ownership, breaking the stereotype that it's only for older individuals.
