Did you see The Melting Pot Restaurants launched an incentive to help existing restaurant operators covert their existing business? One challenge when converting an existing restaurant to a new one is cash flow. Many operators are reluctant to shutter, even if re-concepting could equal a better customer experience and financial outcome. Melting Pot has decided to help solve this by launching an incentive that not only covers potential revenue loss, but also gives the existing restaurant owner a signage package and a marketing fund once completed. Convert Your Restaurant Incentive Are the sales of your existing restaurant not meeting your expectations? Do you desire more support as a restaurant owner? Do you desire the marketing and operating resources of a national chain? 🤜 A candidate or current Melting Pot franchise owner that is approved may execute a conversion of their existing non Melting Pot restaurant, paying only a $5,000 franchise fee per unit (discounted from $45,000 * – with a rebate paid at lease signing). Conversion must start 90 days after franchise agreement. 🤜 In addition to the lower franchise fee, Melting Pot will cover up to $12,500/month for up to 6 months in lost income during the conversion buildout. This will allow an existing restaurant operator the chance to close down and reopen as a Melting Pot. Additionally, Melting Pot will give you $5,000 toward a sign package and $25,000 (managed by the Melting Pot marketing team) to market their new Melting Pot location. The incentive comes on the heels of strong 2024 franchise and restaurant growth. “We’re very excited to highlight the four new franchises we’ve awarded this year. This growth is driven by both new owners and an existing owner who has chosen to expand,” said CEO Bob Johnston. “I’m very pleased with the momentum we’ve built thus far, but I’m even more excited about the opportunity we have to continue growing through the end of the year with up to five new deals in key markets like Tennessee, Alabama, South Carolina, Texas and Kentucky.”

From Day One, the Children's Lighthouse Early Learning School mission was built around one thing and one thing only: family. Today, as a leading early childhood education franchise dedicated to providing value-based care for infants, toddlers, preschoolers and school-age children, that family-driven mission guides every decision. “My dad's goal was to build a business that could be passed down to us or one we could grow into,” said Michael Brown, president of Children's Lighthouse Franchise Opportunities. “As kids, we kept busy helping with whatever was needed at the schools — watering plants, changing air filters or handling maintenance. I started at the bottom, working in various roles within the company, and gradually moved into our franchise department. Overall, working in this family-centric environment not only helped us grow as a franchise, but also brought us closer as a family, which was an incredibly rewarding experience. We want to share that joy with other entrepreneurial families.” Children’s Lighthouse currently has 70 schools operating and 24 more in development. Now, in an era where dual-income families have become the norm, the need for quality child care services has surged, and the time to join the Children's Lighthouse franchise family has never been better. 👉 CLICK THE STORY TO READ MORE #education #investment #franchise
