Episode Details

This episode of The Disruptive Franchise Podcast see's Stacey chat to Lisa Johnson & Karen Paylor - franchisors of The Business Success Company.

Hear what it's like inside an online franchise that is ripping up the rule book on traditional franchise structures.

We talk about how the franchise is a blueprint for how people can replicate business success that Lisa has enjoyed - from creating nearly 100 assets to helping their franchisees with launching!

The episode also explores the reality of growing too quickly, the learning curve of becoming franchisors, mistakes that were made and the lessons learned around infrastructure. Lisa and Karen talk about how the franchise isn't about them, and why it's important to keep the focus on the franchisee's success.

We also look at the future of franchising and the importance of recognising what is relevant to how the world is now, verses the traditional steps in franchising and the importance of being disruptive and innovative at the core of a franchise business.
