Every franchise needs expert advice.

So, we're bringing the business strategy, marketing, sales, and franchise growth experts to you.

Join franchising gurus to learn best practices in franchise sales, franchise software, franchise marketing, franchise operations, and even motivation and franchisee relationship management.

We'll deliver actionable, valuable insights each podcast from true experts in franchising that are really doing what they talk about, rather than just talking about it. It's a subtle but important difference that you'll feel when you tune in.

This is a no chest-beating podcast as well. There are plenty of those available. We focus on what we know will help emerging, growing and even well-established franchise systems take the next step toward franchising nirvana.

We'll publish a new episode every 10 days, and episodes should last between 25 and 40 minutes.

Enjoy!Copyright Dave Hansen

  • Franchise Broker Regulation Updates | What Brokers, FSOs, and Brands Should Know
    2025/12/16
    In this episode of The Franchise Advisory Board Podcast, we’re joined by the one-and-only Alesia Visconti, CEO of FranServe, seven-time Top 100 Influencer in Franchising, and author of The Pink Tsunami: The Rise of Women in Franchising. If franchising had a power source, Alesia would be plugged directly into it.

    First, a big thank you to our episode sponsor, ClientTether, for supporting the show and helping franchise brands build stronger, more connected relationships through smart automation.

    Alesia shares her journey from a long career in career services to accidentally-on-purpose falling into franchising, becoming a FranServe consultant, and then buying the company just 18 months later. Since then, she’s led FranServe’s growth into the largest franchise broker network in the world, all while anchoring the organization around one non-negotiable value: integrity is everything.

    The heart of the conversation digs into one of the most talked-about (and misunderstood) topics in franchising today: proposed changes around third-party franchise sales disclosures. Alesia breaks down what’s actually happening, why it’s happening, and why the fear swirling around it doesn’t match reality. Rather than heavy-handed regulation, the current direction focuses on simple, transparent disclosures that protect consumers, elevate ethical brokers and FSOs, and help weed out bad actors who give the industry a bad name.

    We also explore how these changes could strengthen trust in franchising overall, reduce headline-grabbing scandals, and make the industry more approachable for future franchise owners. Alesia explains why transparency around compensation, experience, brand representation, and potential conflicts of interest isn’t a threat—it’s a long-term win for brokers, brands, and candidates alike.
    Finally, Alesia shares her perspective on timing, why staying engaged now matters more than waiting for laws to drop, and how having franchising leaders at the table helps shape practical, realistic standards instead of reactive regulation.

    This episode is equal parts insight, candor, and clarity—plus a reminder that sunlight, integrity, and open dialogue are still the best tools we have to build an industry that lasts.

  • Reinventing Your Franchise Brand: Fast-Lane Strategies for Rapid Turnarounds
    2025/12/09
    Episode Summary – The Franchise Advisory Board Podcast

    Buckle up, folks! In this episode of the Franchise Advisory Board, we’re hitting the road with Brad Coleman—a former NASCAR driver turned franchise founder—who’s redefining what it means to teach safe driving. Sponsored by ClientTether, the industry’s leading franchise CRM, we dive into Brad’s unique journey from the racetrack to revitalizing and franchising SafeWay Driving, Texas’ premier driver education brand.

    Brad shares how his racing background gave him a front-row seat to precision, situational awareness, and safety—skills he’s now translating into one of the safest driver education programs in the state. From modernizing classrooms and cars to redesigning curriculum and instructor training, Brad and his team have turned SafeWay Driving into a brand where graduates are almost half as likely to get into accidents as students from other programs.

    We explore the full lifecycle of building, selling, and buying back a franchise brand. Brad opens up about why he sold SafeWay, the lessons learned working with investors, and what motivated him to reacquire the brand to refocus on franchisee success and safety. Plus, we get into the strategic moves that have turned franchisees from frustrated to fired-up advocates, including putting one of their own in a leadership role, upgrading online tools, and prioritizing a culture rooted in purpose over profit.

    If you’re curious about how to grow a franchise with heart, navigate the complexities of selling, or simply want to hear stories of NASCAR thrills meeting franchising expertise, this episode is a must-listen.

    A huge thanks to ClientTether, our sponsor, for powering franchise growth with the leading CRM platform designed to streamline development and operations.
