Non-Food Franchising Is At An All Time High With Franchise Expert Jon Ostenson | Ep #96
Have you ever considered buying into a franchise? Have you dreamed of owning your own business, but you think you are not ready or just don't have enough experience to be successful? I have national franchise broker Jon Ostenson as my guest expert on Episode #96 of the Second Act Success Career Podcast. Jon is the founder of FranBridge Consulting. He is a top 1% national franchise broker and the author of the book Non-Food Franchising.
I am a fan of franchising because I purchased a franchise business as my first venture into entrepreneurship. After leaving my 16 year career in Television, I knew I wanted to run my own business, but I was hesitant. When I opened a Snapology franchise, it instantly taught me the basics of launching a business with a great deal of support from my franchisor and my fellow owners.
If you are curious about the franchising world, listen in as Jon Ostenson explains why franchising maybe the best way for aspiring entrepreneurs to launch into business and why franchising is at an all time high.
