Questions, answered

Before you book a call

Franchise coaches only focus on the process of buying a franchise. General business coaching may include many broad topics related to entrepreneurship. However, franchise coaching will help you evaluate which franchise brands are right for your goals.

A franchise coach can also help you explore the benefits of buying into an established brand instead of building a business from scratch.

Adam Goldman assists clients on their franchise journey and helps them determine whether purchasing a franchise is right for them, as well as helping them find a franchise to purchase. His services may include franchise matching, brand research, investment guidance, finance discussions, support for sales and education around franchise ownership.

Many times, the candidate will be able to consult with a franchise consultant at no charge or fee, as some franchise companies cover the consultant’s fee arrangement when the candidate decides to purchase that brand.

The candidate has access to many different franchises through these consultants and then can choose which one fits their needs and goals. Each cost’s structure may be different, so I would recommend asking me directly regarding my compensation method.

Several factors make San Francisco a great city to own a franchise in.  There’s a lot of money spent by consumers, it’s popular with tourists, it has an active business environment, it’s known as one of the world’s leading cities for innovation, and its people have some of the highest incomes in the U.S., which creates a very favorable climate for franchises.

Yes, because of San Francisco’s large and growing customer base, innovative culture, and high average incomes, there is significant potential to build upon an existing brand in San Francisco as a scalable service or franchise concept.

By investing in excess of $50k in a new business, developing a comprehensive business plan outlining realistic financial projections and job growth (in addition to the creation of some jobs above minimum wage), an applicant will have made it easier to demonstrate compliance with E-2 visa requirements.
