  • S1Ep231 Building a Leading Health and Wellness Franchise with Kyle Jones
    2025/05/08
    Building a successful health and wellness franchise requires more than passion for personal well-being—it demands vision, systems, leadership, and the ability to scale while staying true to core values. Few people embody that balance better than Kyle Jones, CEO and Co-Founder of iCryo. Kyle Jones founded iCryo with a mission to elevate lifestyles through professional, affordable, and accessible personal health services. What began with a focus on cryotherapy has rapidly evolved into one of the world’s largest and most recognizable names in the health and wellness franchise space. With over 200 locations open and ambitious plans to surpass a thousand units globally, iCryo’s growth reflects the strength of a brand built on innovation, intentionality, and operational excellence. Jones' transition from collegiate athlete to CEO was fueled by a broader passion for total wellness. Initially pursuing a career in sports and exercise science, he quickly realized that recovery, mental wellness, and proactive health measures offered a much greater impact beyond athletics. That vision became the foundation for iCryo’s expansive portfolio of services, offering everything from cryotherapy and compression therapy to IV infusions, regenerative medicine, and hyperbaric oxygen therapy. The rapid expansion of iCryo stands out in a competitive market increasingly saturated with wellness concepts. Rather than chasing trends, Jones and his team have remained agile and responsive, intentionally introducing new services based on three critical factors: scientific efficacy, market affordability, and public awareness. This forward-thinking strategy has enabled iCryo to stay ahead of industry shifts while maintaining high operational standards across its franchise system. Building a thriving health and wellness franchise at scale also meant mastering compliance and regulatory challenges. As the company expanded into medical services, Jones emphasized the importance of operating with full medical compliance, working closely with advisory boards and legal teams to ensure alignment with state-by-state healthcare regulations. The result is a franchise model that operates as both a welcoming, retail-friendly environment and a fully compliant medical facility. Culture has played a crucial role in iCryo’s success. From day one, Jones has insisted on a “people first” philosophy, ensuring that team members, franchisees, and guests feel connected to a larger mission. Franchisees are not just business owners; they are partners who share a passion for wellness and a commitment to living out the brand’s core values. This intentional focus on culture helps create consistency across hundreds of locations, allowing iCryo to scale without losing the personal touch that defines the brand. Scaling a health and wellness franchise at this level requires a new type of franchisee—one willing to invest, operate professionally, and engage actively with the brand’s mission. iCryo’s operators are all multi-unit owners, a reflection of the company's shift from a boutique wellness service to a professional, medically-integrated wellness destination. Kyle Jones emphasizes that success in franchising is not about simply signing agreements; it’s about building relationships, aligning on vision, and growing with the brand over time. The commitment to continuous improvement is evident in how iCryo trains and supports its network. From weekly system-wide calls that foster real-time alignment to the establishment of franchise advisory committees that ensure feedback loops between the field and corporate leadership, iCryo has built infrastructure for sustainable growth. Operational manuals, brand standards, and educational platforms like iCryo University are designed to keep franchisees at the forefront of innovation while maintaining operational excellence. Community engagement remains a cornerstone of iCryo’s strategy. Despite the global reach of the brand, every iCryo location is positioned as a local business, deeply connected to the neighborhoods they serve. Jones encourages franchisees to actively network within their communities, building authentic relationships with local groups, fitness clubs, schools, and business organizations to amplify their impact and brand loyalty. Kyle Jones’ approach to building a health and wellness franchise highlights the critical blend of mission-driven leadership, strategic innovation, and operational discipline. His emphasis on culture, compliance, customer experience, and continuous evolution offers a blueprint for any entrepreneur or business leader looking to create lasting impact in a competitive market.

  • S1Ep230 Simplifying the Franchise Decision Process with Ryan Zink
    2025/05/08
    Choosing the right franchise can feel like navigating a maze with no clear path—and high stakes at every turn. With hundreds of opportunities and little transparency, would-be franchisees are often left to rely on sales pitches, outdated directories, or gut instincts. The result? Missed opportunities, mismatched investments, and costly mistakes that could have been avoided. For those serious about franchising, the need for a better way forward is urgent. That’s where Ryan Zink steps in. With over 20 years of experience in the franchise world—including three private equity exits, co-founding Complete Nutrition, Franchise FastLane, and now leading as CEO of Franchise Sidekick—he’s reshaping the franchise decision process from the ground up. His mission is simple: help more people buy the right franchise, reduce risk, and set them up for long-term success. Rather than focusing solely on selling brands, Zink has taken the buyer’s perspective. The goal isn’t just to match people with a franchise—it’s to equip them with the tools, insight, and structure they need to make informed, confident decisions. At Franchise Sidekick, that means vetting brands against a 150-point checklist, assessing everything from leadership and support systems to profitability and scalability. It’s not just about who’s selling; it’s about whether the opportunity is worth buying. This structured approach to the franchise decision process is designed to reduce friction and increase transparency. Zink highlights how most prospective franchisees don’t know what questions to ask—or who to trust. They’re stepping into a world where financials vary widely, support is inconsistent, and expectations are often misaligned. Franchise Sidekick offers a solution: a process that empowers buyers through education, data, and strategic matchmaking. Zink also emphasizes the importance of brand readiness. Not every franchise is built to scale—and many don’t have the systems, leadership, or support to sustain growth. By working closely with franchisors, his team ensures that only brands meeting specific criteria are positioned in front of qualified buyers. That alignment is key: a great candidate with the wrong brand is a recipe for frustration on both sides. The conversation also touches on what makes a great franchisee—not just financially, but mentally. Zink points out that while many people want to be business owners, not everyone is ready to operate within the structure a franchise requires. Success in franchising comes from following the system, trusting the process, and staying accountable. The right candidate has clarity on their role, knows what they’re looking for, and is willing to put in the work. In today’s fast-paced franchise industry, where private equity is accelerating brand growth and more people are entering entrepreneurship than ever before, the need for structure and support has never been greater. Simplifying the franchise decision process is about more than efficiency—it’s about creating lasting success. When people are matched with the right opportunity, backed by the right support, they’re more likely to thrive—and so is the brand. Ryan Zink is doing more than helping people buy franchises. He’s changing how the industry thinks about the decision itself. And for those ready to take the leap, the difference between guessing and knowing can define the entire journey.

  • S1Ep229 Redefining Success Through Return on Life with Randy Dyck
    2025/05/01
    Business owners are often told that growth is the ultimate measure of success. Revenue, units sold, hours worked—these metrics dominate boardrooms, coaching programs, and strategy sessions. But what happens when all that growth still leaves you feeling burned out, disconnected, and unfulfilled? What if the real target wasn’t just a return on investment, but a return on life? Randy Dyck, a real estate veteran with more than 7,000 homes sold over the course of 30 years, knows that question all too well. After reaching the pinnacle of professional success, he found himself asking what it all really meant. The numbers were there. The accolades were there. But something was missing. That realization became a turning point, reshaping his entire outlook on business, leadership, and personal fulfillment. Return on life isn’t a rejection of financial success—it’s an expansion of it. It’s a mindset shift that challenges entrepreneurs to pursue not just profit, but purpose. To build businesses that serve their lives, not consume them. For Randy, this means aligning his coaching and leadership around fulfillment, energy, and authenticity. Through his Scientific Scaling Systems, he now helps real estate professionals grow their businesses without sacrificing the things that matter most—time, relationships, health, and meaning. Throughout the conversation, it becomes clear that this shift isn’t just philosophical—it’s strategic. Entrepreneurs often believe they need to choose between success and satisfaction. But Randy argues that when you prioritize alignment, everything improves: clarity, performance, and yes—profit. When you operate in your zone of genius, when your goals are rooted in your deeper why, business growth becomes not just sustainable, but enjoyable. That shift starts with awareness. Randy shares how a personal exercise—what he calls an “energy audit”—can reveal where your time and effort are truly going. By tracking which tasks drain energy and which fuel it, entrepreneurs can begin to design their day, team, and business structure around what gives them life. From there, it becomes easier to delegate, automate, or eliminate the rest. This idea of self-alignment also ties into how Randy views leadership. It’s not about declaring authority; it’s about modeling curiosity, growth, and service. His leadership equation—learner, leverage, legacy—flips the typical script. The goal isn’t just to scale a company, but to elevate others along the way. When leaders focus on being lifelong learners, sharing what they’ve learned, and helping others create their own legacy, they create businesses that thrive with purpose. In a time where burnout is rampant and “busy” is worn like a badge of honor, return on life offers an alternative—a model where success includes health, family, freedom, and fulfillment. Entrepreneurs don’t have to sacrifice everything to grow. They simply need to redefine what growth means. If you're tired of chasing metrics that don’t deliver meaning, if you’re ready to design a business that energizes rather than drains you, Randy’s perspective will resonate. Success is more than just scale—it’s significance. And when you start building for both, the return on life is exponential. Watch the full episode on YouTube.
