Is Franchising Your Ticket to Business Growth?

Here's What You Need to Know

Franchising expert Chris Conner partnered with Honeycomb Credit to host a webinar about franchising as a business growth strategy.

Let’s be real—growing a business is no joke. You’re juggling everything from marketing to payroll, probably answering emails at midnight, and wondering how you’re supposed to scale without cloning yourself. 

If you’ve ever thought, “Hey, maybe I should franchise this thing?”—you’re in luck. We brought in the expert, Chris Conner of FMS, to spill all the franchising secrets in our latest webinar. And trust us—you’re gonna want to watch this one.

Meet the Franchising Expert

Chris Conner isn’t just some self-proclaimed guru who read a few books on franchising—he’s been in the game for 25 years, helping brands like Jimmy John’s, Anytime Fitness, and even Costco scale through franchising. If there’s a mistake to be made in the franchising world, he’s seen it (and knows how to avoid it).

Recently, Chris sat down with us to share his wisdom. In our webinar, he gave us the real deal on franchising, including:

✅ The real costs of franchising (no hidden fees here). ✅ What makes a business franchisable (hint: you don’t need to be McDonald’s). ✅ The biggest mistakes new franchisors make (so you don’t make them). ✅ Whether a food truck or storefront franchise is the better bet. ✅ How to make money as a franchisor (hello, passive income!).

Franchising: The Secret Growth Hack You’re Probably Ignoring

Here’s the thing—most business owners don’t even consider franchising because they assume they’re too small, too niche, or just not ready. But Chris makes one thing clear: Every major franchise started with one location. Whether it’s a cozy coffee shop, a busy gym, or a food truck that has customers lining up, franchising can be the thing that skyrockets your growth.

And the best part? You’re not just growing—you’re building a brand that others invest in, run, and scale for you. That means less of you working in the business and more of you working on the business.

How to Know If You’re Ready to Franchise

We’re not here to sugarcoat it. Franchising is a big step. So, how do you know if franchising is the right move? Chris lays out some dead giveaways:

💡 Your business is growing, and customers are asking when you’ll open another location.

💡 People have already asked if they can invest or open one themselves.

💡 You have solid systems in place (or at least know how to create them).

💡 You want to expand but don’t want to take on massive debt.

If any of these sound like you, franchising could be your next big move. 

Don’t Wing It—Get the Inside Scoop!

Franchising isn’t something you just figure out as you go—at least, not if you want to do it right. Chris breaks down the process step by step, so you can decide if it’s the right fit for your business.

So grab a coffee (or whatever suits you) and hit play on this must-watch webinar. It could be the moment that changes your business forever.
