Overview

Mike came to us running his consultancy almost entirely on referrals and word of mouth. Strong brand, great close rate — but no predictable top-of-funnel. We built him a paid advertising + CRM + website inbound system that puts qualified franchise buyer enquiries in front of him every single week.

 

The Engagement

1 ) Discovery
Understanding the franchise portfolio

We sat down with John to map every brand he represents at Franchise Solutions Inc., the typical investor profile for each, and the friction points in his existing intake process.

 
2) Build
Launching paid + inbound engine

We rebuilt his advertising creative around investor intent, structured a CRM to route enquiries from our network of franchise sites, and gave him a single dashboard to manage everything.

 
3) Scale
Steady, qualified inbound — every week

Once the engine was live, our role shifted to optimisation — sharper targeting, better qualification, faster follow-up — so John spends his time on conversations that actually close.

 

The Outcome

Paid ad efficiency

Sharper creative and tighter audiences mean every dollar works harder.

 

Investor enquiries

Consistent inbound from serious franchise buyers — not curious browsers.

 

Closed placements

A steady cadence of qualified discovery calls that convert to placements.

From paid ads to CRM automation to a high-converting website, our growth engine finally runs on autopilot. The team genuinely understands franchise sales — it shows in the quality of conversations they put on my calendar.
