At FranUSA, our mission is to enable the entrepreneur inside . Our service is free to our clients and there is no risk or obligation to buy a franchise.

There are nearly 3,000 registered franchisors in the United States today. Trying to navigate through those organizations and find one that is the right fit can be a daunting task. A person could spend weeks just familiarizing themselves on the various options in the market and not have nearly enough information to make an informed decision.

Every FranUSA consultant has expertise in franchising. Additionally, they have years of experience in business - sales, marketing, operations, customer service and management. Our consultants experience in franchising and business allows them to carefully prescreen the various franchises out there and guide you to some exciting businesses - many of which you may not have even heard of or considered! New concepts, new markets, high growth - all part of helping you achieve your dream of owning your own business.

At FranUSA, we work with people to understand what business is going to best meet their needs. Our process takes into account your financial goals, your personal preferences, lifestyle goals and well as how much you want to invest. All of those factors must be looked at when making a good decision about what business is the best fit for you.

A Free Service for Entrepreneurs

A FranUSA consultant works much like a realtor when buying a home. An industry expert guides you through the process by thoroughly understanding your needs, answering your questions and concerns while presenting a solution that meets your business ownership objectives.

There is no cost or obligation to using our service. Our fees are paid by the franchisor. Your cost to purchase a franchise is exactly the same whether you work with a FranUSA consultant or not. FranUSA provides a win-win scenario for both you the candidate and the franchisor.

Step One - Gathering Information

The first step in what we do involves the important process of gathering important information about you, your experience, your goals and what you want out of business ownership.

Step Two - The DART Consultation Process

A FranUSA consultant will arrange for a confidential consultation using the DART process. DART stands for Dimension Analysis and Relevancy Tracker. FranUSA's unique DART consultation process is at the heart of the service we provide to our clients. The DART process is designed to look at the factors (dimensions) that drive what you like to do and what you do well. The DART process also looks at how a potential business opportunity would offer many or few opportunities for you to use those dimensions. The result is a business opportunity that is the right fit for you.

Step Three - Selecting A Franchise

The next step involves having your FranUSA consultant examine a discrete number of franchise opportunities that fit your profile. We will suggest companies that you will want to introduce yourself to. Your consultant will provide you guidance and expertise as you move through the investigation process to determine compatibility. We can't do your research for you. It will be up to you to do a complete and thorough investigation to determine if a franchise is the right fit. We will provide you with guidance on questions to ask the franchisor to help you get started with this step
