What actually makes a great franchise system? In this Franchise Friday episode, I sit down with Michael O’Driscoll, Chief Operating Officer and President of Franchising at Homefront Brands, to break down what separates strong, durable franchise systems from the ones that simply look good on paper. We cover why the underlying business must already be proven, why marketing is the lifeblood of franchising, how leadership and culture impact long-term success, and the real differences between emerging and mature franchise brands. If you’re considering franchising—or already own one—this is about doing the homework and understanding exactly what you’re investing in. This is Franchise Friday.
