When facing the inevitable challenges of growing a franchise, do you ever find yourself wondering:
“Are other franchisors dealing with this, too?”
“How are they solving these kinds of issues?”
“How can I access the right kind of advice?”
If so, you’re not alone. Whether you’re growing your network, managing franchisee performance, or navigating change, franchising brings a unique set of challenges. As someone in a leadership position it can feel like everything comes down to you, and you alone.
Sometimes, you don’t need or want a big solution. You just want straight, honest advice from people who’ve been there. However, finding that, especially at your level, isn’t always easy.
Which is why we’re launching a new Franchisor Forum. An exclusive, peer-to-peer online event hosted by The Franchising Centre which is FREE to attend.
In this live, quarterly session, we’re bringing together a select group of franchisors and franchising experts to talk candidly about what’s working, what’s not, and how to move forward with confidence.

We want this to very much be a franchisor-led event, so exactly what will be discussed will be down to you. Which is why capacity will be limited to a very small number of participants to ensure maximum value to all who attend.
However, we are looking at a number of themes to include, which will cover a wide variety of specialist topics, such as:
- Troubleshooting operational issues at every level
- Boosting franchisee performance & engagement
- Dealing with “problem” franchisees
- Legal & Compliance issues
- Identifying communication issues
- How to perform effective network audits
- Overcoming a “them & us” dynamic in your franchise
- Effective conferences and re-training
Most importantly, while this is a chance for you to raise your concerns and questions among a select group of your peers and other experts, the primary focus is helping you to find perspective and real, practical solutions to the challenges you face.
You’ll hear what others are doing differently, have the space to reflect on what’s next for your own network, and able to seek free advice from experts in the field and a variety of special guests.
