16 - Exploring the Myths and Realities of Franchise Ownership with The Daly Coach's Kim Daly

Your host, Glenn Poulos, talks with the Franchise Consultant of The Daly Coach, Kim Daly. Kim Daly has been a franchise consultant for 21 years and a small business owner for 26 years. She stumbled into franchising as a solution to a problem in her life and has since developed a passion for helping others find financial, personal, and professional freedom through franchise ownership.

Kim addressed some common misconceptions about franchising. Contrary to popular belief, franchising is not limited to food and retail businesses. As a top consultant, Kim focuses on service-based franchises, emphasizing that there are endless options beyond food. She also debunked the myth that prior experience or industry knowledge is necessary to own a franchise. Most franchise owners prefer candidates without experience to ensure they can follow the franchise system effectively.

As a franchise consultant, Kim's main focus is helping people find the right franchise for them and get married to their franchise. She provides coaching during the selection process and helps clients understand that franchising is about the people, not just the product or service. She encourages clients to have imagination and be proactive in creating their business success.
