Owners who survive 2026 share 2 things in common

Most franchise owners aren’t ready for what’s coming.

Consumer spending is down. Loan delinquencies just hit a 10-year high. Savings are evaporating.

For owners, costs are climbing while margins are shrinking.

Less room for error. Less runway to figure things out.

Over the next 12 months, many owners will be forced to make a decision they didn’t plan for.

Some will downsize. Some will close. Some will walk away entirely.

But here’s what most people miss…

Every squeeze creates two groups: sellers who have to get out and buyers who are ready to move.

I will be one of those buyers (just as I was after COVID).

My partners will be buyers.

8-Figure Franchisees will be buyers.

This is exactly the type of deal I expect to see more of:

John, an 8-Figure member, is buying another franchise for $1.

One dollar.

These deals are out there. But you need to know how to find them, negotiate them, and execute on them.

At 3PM EST today, I’m breaking down exactly how to position yourself on the right side of this shakeout
