You didn't buy a franchise to stay small.
You know you're capable of more.
You’ve felt it for a while now. That gap between where you are and where you know you could be.
You’re not struggling. The business works. You’re making money. From the outside, it looks like you’ve made it.
But you know the truth.
You’re working harder than you should be. You’re the bottleneck for every decision. And growth feels slower than it should—like you’re pushing uphill when other franchisees seem to be coasting past you.
The worst part isn’t the hours or the stress.
It’s knowing you’re leaving money on the table. Deals you didn’t chase. Locations you didn’t acquire. Cash flow you didn’t optimize. Time you didn’t get back.
Every year you don’t scale is equity you’re not building.
Your franchisor gave you the operations manual. But not the growth manual.
They taught you how to run a location. Not how to multiply it. How to follow the system. Not how to build an empire.
They’re designed to help owners go from 0 to 1. Not from 1 to 5. Not from 5 to 20.
That’s not a knock on franchisors—it’s just not their job. Their playbook is built for consistency across thousands of owners, not for the ambitious few who want to scale.
So when you hit the ceiling at 2-3 locations, there’s no manual for what comes next.
You’re on your own.
Figuring out how to:
— Find and close off-market deals before they hit the broker
— Structure seller financing so you’re not draining cash on every acquisition
— Fix margins so more revenue actually hits your pocket
— Hire leaders who run locations without you
— Remove yourself from daily operations so you can focus on growth
Most franchise owners never figure this out. They stay stuck at 1-3 units. Working too many hours. Earning less than they should. Wondering what went wrong.
This is why I created 8-Figure Franchisee.
What 8-Figure Franchisee actually is
It’s a complete program for franchise owners who want to scale.
You get the Franchise OS—the exact systems, frameworks, and tools I’ve built over 10 years of growing to 35+ locations. Not theory. Not fluff. Step-by-step playbooks you can implement immediately.
Plus a community of operators actually doing it—where you bring real deals, real problems, and get real feedback.
The program is built around three outcomes:
1. Acquire more locations.
The Deal Engine: Find off-market deals. Negotiate seller financing. Underwrite resales. Structure deals that don’t drain your cash. Templates, scripts, calculators, and live deal reviews to help you move faster.
2. Increase cash flow.
The Cash Flow Engine: Revenue means nothing if it doesn’t convert to profit. P&L breakdowns, margin analysis, scorecard systems, and operator feedback to find money you’re currently leaving on the table.
3. Remove yourself from the day-to-day.
The Owner Replacement Engine: Build the org chart, make the right hires, install the systems. Comp models, hiring funnels, delegation frameworks—everything you need to stop being the bottleneck.
Three engines. Six operating systems. You use what you need, when you need it.
What's inside
The Franchise OS
Complete curriculum organized by outcome. Short, actionable modules you can consume in minutes—not hours. Frameworks you implement the same week.
Tools & Resources
Seller financing calculators. P&L analyzers. Deal scorecards. Valuation models. Hiring funnels. Comp templates. The same spreadsheets and systems I use in my own business.
Live Calls
Bi-weekly calls where you bring your deals, your hiring problems, your cash flow questions. Real feedback from operators who’ve solved the same problems.
The Community
Your sounding board. A place to bounce ideas, get gut checks, and see how other franchisees are handling the exact challenges you’re facing. Not a place to lurk—a place to execute.
Direct Access
Office hours, async support, and real answers when you need them. You’re not figuring this out alone anymore.
What this looks like in the real world
Jared used our outreach system and negotiation framework to land an off-market acquisition with seller financing. It tripled his business overnight.
John used our valuation and negotiation playbook to acquire a neighboring location for $1. Not a typo.
Nick identified a tired operator, negotiated smart terms, and expanded without draining cash.
Kevin followed the scripts, executed the playbook, and secured a killer seller-financed deal in San Antonio.
Larry evaluated territories using our process and secured deals that turned him into a multi-state operator.
Evan was stuck at one location, working as the bottleneck, knowing he could do more but without the roadmap. Within weeks of joining, he had clarity on his next three acquisitions and a plan to 5x his business.
These aren’t outliers. This is what happens when you stop trying to figure it out alone.
"But I've tried other programs..."
Maybe you’ve looked at business buying programs. Or industry-specific coaching. Or local peer groups.
Here’s the difference:
Generic business buying programs teach you how to buy a business. They don’t teach you how to scale a franchise business—with FDDs, territory rights, franchisor relationships, and brand-specific dynamics.
Industry coaching can help you run a better location. It won’t help you acquire your competitor, structure seller financing, or build the org chart for 10 locations when you’re still at 2.
Local peer groups are great for networking. They’re not built to help you close your next deal or fix your P&L.
8-Figure Franchisee is the only program built specifically for franchise owners who want to build a portfolio. The systems, the tools, the community—all designed for how franchising actually works.
Who this is for (and who it's not)
This is for you if:
- You own a franchise and want to grow beyond 2-3 locations
- You're thinking long-term, not looking for quick flips
- You're ready to acquire your first or next franchise
- You're willing to implement, not just learn
This is NOT for you if:
- You're looking for passive income or easy money
- You're not willing to invest time in implementation
- You're a tire kicker or shortcut seeker
- You want theory without action
This isn’t for everyone. That’s intentional.
The cost of waiting
One of our members, Evan, told me something that stuck:
"I probably would have more locations right now if I would have joined when I talked to Chris the first time."
He waited. He went with an industry-specific coach instead. He made progress—but not the kind of progress he was capable of.
When he finally joined, he got clarity in the first week. He saw the exact path from 2 locations to 10. He stopped guessing and started executing.
His only regret? Not doing it sooner.
That’s the real cost of waiting. Not the membership fee. The deals you don’t close. The cash flow you don’t optimize. The years you spend stuck when you could be scaling.
One more thing
For the right operators, I don’t just coach—I invest.
I have active capital partnerships with franchisees scaling to 8 figures. Debt capital plus profit sharing to help serious operators accelerate growth.
It starts inside 8-Figure Franchisee. That’s where I find partners I want to back.
Your next step
If you’ve read this far, you already know whether this is for you.
You know you’re capable of more. You know you’ve been figuring it out alone for too long. You know there’s a faster path.
The question is whether you’re going to keep waiting—or finally get in the room.
Book a strategy call.
We’ll map out where you are today, where you want to go, and whether 8-Figure Franchisee can help you get there faster.
No pressure. No hard sell. Just a real conversation about your business and your goals.
If it’s a fit, I’ll tell you. If it’s not, I’ll tell you that too.
“You don’t rise to the level of your ambition. You rise to the level of your environment.”
This is the environment.
