Director of Operations or Partner in Success? As the Director of Operations at WellBiz Brands, I often find 'partner' a more fitting title! It's a journey of collaboration with our franchise owners, managers, and the real stars - our frontline employees. They're the ones bringing the brand magic to life across our five franchises: Drybar, Amazing Lash, Elements Massage, Fitness Together, and Radiant Wax. With over 900 locations worldwide, it's a thrilling ride! 2024 is all about fostering a culture of success at WellBiz, and it's clear that relationships are at the heart of our achievements. It's no coincidence that two of our brands are in the Franchise Top 500, with the other three quickly on their heels. Just wrapped up my first week of travel this year - and what a week it's been! In just 4 days, I've visited 10 locations, driven 650 miles, and dived deep into the essence of building operations and partnerships. This is what makes being part of the WellBiz Brands family so special. I'd love to hear from you - what makes your brand or company's culture unique? Let's share insights and celebrate the power of partnerships in business! #WellBizBrands #Leadership #BusinessGrowth #Partnership #FranchiseSuccess #Teamwork #BusinessTravel #culturebuilding

Two of the biggest themes I took away from Franchise Springboard were consistency and communication. From setting up your leadership team, collaborating for success, unit economics, operational efficiency, scaling your business, to evaluating vendors; all of these key aspects of running a franchise should be embedded with consistency and communication. It all starts at the top, your ability as a business owner to recruit and attain top talent is imperative to your success. Your leadership team needs to align in delivering the mission of the brand, and be willing to get down to the ground level because you can't make decisions on what your brand needs without being involved in every aspect of your business. How do you do that? You have to make sure you have a clear and easily repeatable plan. Your mission needs to be easy to understand, but hard in the sense that you'll have to work at it to achieve your goals. One idea that I found especially interesting came from Shelly Sun of BrightStar Care who published performance metrics to all franchisees as a way to drive engagement. This was wildly successful for Brightstar on a number of levels, not only did it encourage franchisees to work harder at improving their performance, but it also fostered a community of cooperation between franchise owners as they began communicating with each other on best practices, which is how franchisees like to learn. In a nutshell, by allowing franchise owners to benchmark themselves internally, you're giving them the playbook on how to improve their business by leveraging your existing network. I've got pages of notes from Springboard and am excited to share my thoughts throughout the rest of this week! #franchising #operations #leadership #benchmarking #consistency #communication

"But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now." Galatians 4:29 KJV When I became the first franchisee of ImageFIRST, I was young (33), full of energy, and ready to take on the world. The franchisor and my partner in the venture, Jerry Berstein, and I had many conversations about his expectations and what I needed to do to meet them. I remember one conversation well; his main point was, “Luke, I don’t expect perfection from you. What I do expect is when you make a mistake, you learn from it and not let it happen again.” I took his advice to heart, and Jerry was right. Despite my mistakes, ImageFIRST - Cincinnati grew from $0 to $2.5M in annual revenue. During our 20-year adventure, Jerry would illuminate areas of improvement and say, “I expect you to correct this, learn how not to let it happen again, and move on.” He never once raised his voice or talked down to me. Fast forward to this week, and I am helping someone sell multiple assets with multiple price points. In a second conversation with a prospective candidate, I had a moment of incompetence (I’m learning the intricacies of franchising, like drinking from a fire hose) and mixed up the sale price with another asset.  Join me and your colleagues in the Franchisee’s Advanced Leadership Center Mastermind, a new cycle that starts April 4th at 11:00 AM Eastern, so we can share challenges and grow together before mistakes are made.

Prospects don't trust you. They like you, but they don't trust you. Your brand has to earn that trust - every single day. So - how does one do that? Well... in franchising, showcasing happy franchisees, satisfied customers, and dedicated staff is key. Social proof—the validation of your franchise model through others' experiences—is a potent force in driving sales and building brand loyalty. Positive testimonials from franchisees highlight the profitability of your model, while happy customer reviews attract new buyers. Demonstrating staff dedication reinforces your commitment to excellence. By leveraging social proof, you create a compelling narrative of success that resonates with prospects, fostering a vibrant franchise community and propelling your brand to new heights. P.S. This is a session I hosted at United Franchise Group - and I had a blast. To inquire how I can speak and educate your leadership team on the power of video, storytelling and social proof - DM us. It's our favorite thing to do.

Great stuff Jerry! This is why we have dedicated so much of our #legal resources to #IFA and franchising legal compliance to provide our unique business rss model (unlimited #legaladvice for a monthly flat fee) to engage all Franchisors and Franchisees, letting them know we can and will get them in (and keep them in) #legalcompliance even after all the #NLRB rule changes that are going g to be a huge challenge and require experienced #attorneys to draft policies and procedures (as #franchisors can no longer do so or they will be deemed the employee of all #franchisees). We are here for all #franchises and will show this at #IFA as we launch our free myHRcounsel Comlliance IQ Audit tool, and provide our legal #subscriptions to save #franchisors and #franchisees from the massive fines and lawsuits coming thanks to these law changes. See you soon! Check us out at https://lnkd.in/gX8ZmSR
