In this episode of Smart Franchising, Dan Rowe sits down with Jack Johnson, CEO of Franchise Insiders, to explore the untapped potential of franchise resales. Jack breaks down the resale opportunity most franchisees miss by buying profitable businesses, skipping the startup grind, and building to sell from the start.
Discover why resales aren't failures but smart investments that can fast-track your path to wealth. Jack reveals where to find hidden deals before they hit the market, how to structure SBA financing to buy cash-flowing businesses without draining your capital, and why the biggest franchisees like Greg Flynn built their empires through strategic acquisitions, not ground-up construction.
Learn the critical mistakes that can cost you millions. Jack shares his proven strategies for always keeping your business sale-ready, the personality assessments that match buyers to the right opportunities, and why running your franchise like it's always for sale is the smartest move you can make.
Whether you're a first-time buyer looking to avoid the 6-12 month startup wait or an experienced operator ready to scale through acquisitions, this episode delivers actionable insights on turning franchise resales into your competitive advantage.
