Find the Right Franchise With an Expert Franchise Coach

A franchise consultant listens to your goals, budget, and lifestyle needs, then matches you against a curated portfolio of vetted franchise brands, walks you through the FDD and financials, and coordinates franchisee validation calls before you ever sign anything.

Yes. Franchisors pay a placement fee only after a successful match, so the matching, coaching, and due diligence support you receive costs you nothing.

A business broker typically sells an existing business for a seller-paid commission. A franchise consultant like Adam Goldman works with prospective franchise buyers to identify and evaluate new franchise opportunities at no cost, with no obligation to buy.

Franchise investments typically range from $50,000 to $500,000+ in total capital required, and that can come from savings, an SBA loan, a retirement rollover (ROBS), or a financing partner. There’s no universal credit score cutoff. Each franchisor sets its own net worth and liquidity requirements, and I’ll help you find brands that actually match what you have to invest.

No. I stay involved through Discovery Day, opening, and your first year of operations, answering questions, making introductions, and helping you work through challenges as they come up. The relationship doesn’t end at closing.
