About Franchise Consultant Growth

Help buyers move forward.
Move your business forward, too.

Training for franchise consultants who want to turn their knowledge of franchising into a more productive, organized, and growing business.

Being a resource for buyers is only part of the job. You also need a reliable way to attract, qualify, nurture, and guide them.

I’m John Henning. I created Franchise Consultant Growth to teach franchise consultants how to strengthen the activities that drive their business: generating buyer leads, converting those leads into franchisor referrals, and helping qualified candidates move toward a franchise award.

Whether you’re getting started or growing an established consulting business, the goal is practical improvement. Learn to ask better questions, build a more consistent follow-up process, work more effectively with franchisors, and spend your time where it matters most.
