“It’s the second time we’ve won this award and we’re very proud. But it’s just the icing on the cake. We’re even more proud of the work that we get given by our clients, the fact that they trust us to actually do this. Get the right franchise consulting firm on your side, let them do the feasibility and the due diligence for you, and put that business plan together – it’s worth it in the long run” DOUG DOWNER, PRINCIPAL AT FRANCHISE READY , BEST FRANCHISE CONSULTANCY “I would like to thank our millions of members, our many incredible master franchise partners who have taken the risk on this idea that we had 20 years ago, and of course, our thousands of franchisees around the globe. Our partners put their individual mark on our brand, making it appealing in every culture, and that’s what really makes the magic happen” ERIC KELLER, VP OF INTERNATIONAL SUPPORT AT SELF ESTEEM BRANDS , GRAND CHAMPION ( ANYTIME FITNESS ) “We put a lot into this industry, not only the work we do with our clients but also in the committees we’re involved in at the International Franchise Association and the Canadian Franchise Association. We love franchising.
