Breaking Records & Building Brands: Ron Taylor’s Franchise Story

I have an opportunity, in my line of work, to talk to a lot of franchisees and a lot of franchisors. It's always enlightening, but it's very rare to be able to talk to someone who has been a franchisee of multiple brands and continues to give back even now with consulting. So join me in this episode of FranchiseU! when I talk with Ron Taylor. Ron has been a very successful franchisee of Edible Brands, and now is a franchisee of Nothing Bundt Cakes and SweatHouz and has his own consulting business. He has some wonderful insights to share with us.

Taylor is the founder of Franchise Authentic, a brand rooted in real-world franchise experience and proven results. With a background as a top-performing franchisee and operator, he helps align aspiring entrepreneurs with the right franchise brand.

Topics discussed include:

• Introduction and Guest Overview

• The SweatHouz Experience
• Insights on Franchising
• Evaluating Franchisors
