Recent Testimonials

"I would not have been where I am today without Merri's help. She educated me on what I needed to know to make an informed decision before I signed my agreement. She continues to follow up with me and provide assistance to this day. She is truly a professional in her field and I recommend her to anyone considering being a franchise owner."
- Lei B. of Austin, TX (Sept 2010)

“Excellent process... Having met Dan at a career workshop - provided a sense of trust vs. cold calling. Very comfortable with process and how the opportunities were presented (no push, but a natural flow and decision). He helped with what we REALLY were looking for."
- Steve M. of Nashville, TN (Aug 2010)

“It was extremely enlightening and pleasant to deal with Stacy. She was very attentive and patient in helping to educate me and help me think about the critical points in owning a franchise. She made me feel that I was asking the right questions and overall was very informative. Stacy was extremely helpful in listening to my views and needs and assessing some of the considerations I needed to be aware of. I thought it was really helpful and insightful to further my understanding of me and my goals and how I might look at my future endeavors."
- Andrea M., of Denver CO (July 2010)

"Merri is an extremely professional person, with concern for my occupational interests and desires. I was very impressed with Merri, as was everyone who attended the seminar where we first met. Everyone felt they had gotten a clear honest explanation. Her sincerity cannot be understated. I know of at least one other person in that seminar that is working with Merri and I will tell everyone interested in starting their own business to start with Merri."
- Ken F. of Austin, TX (May 2010)

"The FranNet website provided an excellent framework and starting place to begin questioning franchisors and validating through franchisees. Cari Vinci is very personable and made me feel very comfortable working with her. She offers considerable insight to the world of franchising."
- Bill E. of Georgetown, CA (April 2010)

"You can't ask for better support than the one provided by Jose. He went beyond the call of duty on several occasions to intercede between us and the Franchisor, in an objective yet forceful way, whenever there were communication impasses that were due to social, cultural, and basic misunderstandings of international practices."
- Jose R. of Puerto Rico (March 2010)

“I have only worked with my FranNet consultant, but if he is a representative of your organization, then you must have an outstanding team. I have a lot of franchise experience and that probably makes me a rather opinionated and difficult profile to work with, but he surprised with his breadth of knowledge and ability to help me focus on my actual goals before even I knew what they were. Going into the process, I had very strong feelings about what I didn't want in a franchise, and he helped me understand the type of environment and franchisor that is best for my skills, goals and franchisor interaction. I look at franchising differently, because he helped me look at myself differently." 
- Jeff B. of Vancouver, BC (February 2010)

"It was a very good process with the questionnaire, phone conversations and getting to know my strengths and ambitions. My consultant was very informative, patient and he did a great job in matching me with opportunities. He took the time to find out exactly what I was looking for. During the research process, I made the decision that I am not 100% ready to purchase a franchise. My consultant was very helpful, informative and courteous. If I were to consider a franchise in the future I will contact him right away. I will recommend him to anyone I meet who is looking for a franchise opportunity." 
- Gerty D. of Columbus, OH (February 2010)

"Overall, experience was good and provided opportunity for me to explore business ownership. Franchises provided for evaluation matched my skill sets well." 
- Mark M. of Cincinnati, OH (January 2010)

"My FranNet consultant was very professional but also personable. She kept us moving forward by setting timeframes for each part of the overall investigation process. Her selections for potential franchises were "right on the money" for our goals. She was ALWAYS available, even when on vacation. Overall, we were very impressed with FranNet and with her in particular."
- Lanier Quantz, FranNet client (December 2009)

"She was very patient, knew her subject matter, was professional and helped me greatly in picking the right franchise. She also educated and gave me info regarding due diligence, use of my 401K plan to help fund my business, etc. Without her, I would still be looking."
- Steve McMahan, FranNet client (October 2009)

"My FranNet consultant was great to work with. He allowed me to brainstorm with him regarding franchise opportunities and challenges. I found his input invaluable as I navigated my way through the discovery process".
- Chuck Mallett, FranNet client (September 2009)

"She was most concerned about finding a good fit for me - not just getting me to buy a franchise. I know that if she assessed that I was not a good candidate for a particular option she would have told me so. She continues to check in with me even now that I am getting my own business started and I consider her to be a true professional."
- Alan Babcock, FranNet client (August 2009)

"My consultant took the time to understand me, what motivates me, the working environment in which I thrive and my personal and professional goals. We didnt really get into franchise opportunities until the first part was clearly identified."
- Amado Izaguirre, FranNet client (July 2009)

"Our consultant was great and the process he took us through really opened our eyes to new possibilities. I was skeptical at first, but the insights I gained made me a believer. I would recommend FranNet's process to anyone considering a franchise. Whatever your experience is, you will learn something."
- John Neilson, FranNet client (July 2009)

"My consultant worked with both my spouse and me through a challenging time of decision. She is very professional and capable."
- Steve Rosebaugh, FranNet client (May 2009)

– Matthew Boyd, FranNet client (April 2009)

"He provided a comprehensive consultation. We went over my strengths and interests and he provided three opportunities that matched my profile. With his guidance, my wife and I evaluated the franchise offerings and settled on a exciting opportunity. He was a professional advisor and I personally appreciate his steady guidance through this complicated purchase. Thank you!"
