One income built your life, a second engine can build your freedom.

FranchiseMade helps you move from earning income… to owning a business that creates it.

Income isn’t the same as wealth.

A strong income can build a life.

But if that income depends on your time, your schedule, or your role, there’s always a limit.

Eventually, the question becomes:

How do I create something that works for me… not just because of me?

Testimonials

Trusted by professionals, families, and growth-minded individuals ready to build security, ownership, and long-term financial freedom.

Todd Mayo has proven to be an outstanding business associate. Through investigation, educating, mentoring, and support, I have admired and valued Todd’s work with entrepreneurs immensely. Todd is best-in-class and has seen it all when it comes to franchising. Besides his professional expertise, I can speak first-hand that Todd is also a great human being and a model leader. Thank you, Todd, for the support you’ve given us throughout the years.

Todd and I owned several franchises, both independently and as partners. He knows the franchising business backwards and forwards, and understands the drivers that distinguish highly profitable enterprises from those that become just a job. As a franchise advisor, Todd has the critical experience to determine if the objectives of the franchisor and franchisee are aligned at all levels. In a franchise business, nothing compromises cash flows faster than nickel and dime fees in the fine print and/or a poorly structured franchisee/franchisor relationship. What is good for the franchisor may not be good for the franchisee! Todd is a tremendous resource in this capacity. Further, Todd has built several franchises from zero to multimillion revenue businesses, so he can also advise as a seasoned business operator. I highly recommend him.
