How we're different
Every figure we share comes with where it came from and when it was checked. If a number hasn't been reviewed, we say so instead of guessing.

If you open a franchise we introduced, that franchisor pays us a placement fee. We tell you before any introduction whether that applies, and it never changes what our research shows.
Common questions
Why use a franchise consultant?
A consultant can save you time narrowing hundreds of brands to a short list, and help you prepare questions for franchisors and current owners.
Do you work with every franchise?
No. Our research covers brands whose disclosure documents we've reviewed, and we'll tell you if a brand isn't in it yet.
How we're paid
Our consulting is free to buyers. If you open a franchise we introduced you to, the franchisor may pay FranRelay a placement fee. We tell you before an introduction whether that applies.
