Plan B and C Consulting

Friday Freedom Check – Are You Building Your Own Future? It’s Friday — and for a lot of people, that means counting down the hours until the weekend. But here’s a thought… if you’re always waiting for Friday, is your career really working for you? ? Business owners don’t live for the weekend. ? They build something that gives them control over their time. ? They create freedom instead of working toward someone else’s goals. If you’ve ever thought about stepping into business ownership but weren’t sure where to start, let’s talk. No pressure, just a real conversation about what’s possible.

Franchising Isn’t Buying a Job A lot of people assume franchising is just “buying a job.” But let’s clear that up — a job pays you a fixed salary. A business builds equity and creates wealth. When you invest in a franchise, you’re not just making money — you’re building an asset that could be worth far more than what you put in. And unlike starting from scratch, franchises come with a proven model, brand recognition, and support, making success far more predictable. If you’re tired of trading time for a paycheck and want to start building something of your own, let’s talk: https://zurl.co/5Ic8s #FranchiseOwnership #EntrepreneurMindset #WealthBuilding #PlanBandCConsulting

LinkedIn Poll – Why People Want to Own a Business I’m curious — if you’ve ever thought about owning a business (franchise or otherwise), what’s the #1 reason driving that thought? ? Control Over My Time ? Financial Independence ? Build Something to Sell ? Career Change (Tired of Corporate Life) Drop your vote — and if you want to chat about how franchising fits into any of these goals, my calendar’s open: https://zurl.co/V1B19 #FranchiseOwnership #Entrepreneurship #FranchiseConsulting #PlanBandCConsulting

Ageism vs. Ownership - For Corporate Refugees Let’s talk about something uncomfortable — ageism in hiring. If you’re over 45, you’ve probably felt it. Resumes get ignored, interviews get weird, and suddenly your decades of experience feel like a liability instead of an asset. That’s one reason so many people in their 40s, 50s, and even 60s turn to franchise ownership. It’s a way to own something, put your skills to work for yourself, and build equity instead of just collecting a paycheck. If you’re tired of being overlooked and ready to take control, I can help you explore options — no pressure, just a real conversation.

What a Franchise Consultant Actually Does If you’ve never worked with a franchise consultant before, here’s the quick version of what I do: I’m not a salesperson. I don’t push any one brand or try to “sell” you something. My job is to help you figure out if franchising even makes sense for you — and if it does, I help you narrow down options that match your skills, goals, and budget. The process is free for candidates (franchisors pay me if you end up moving forward — kind of like a recruiter model). If you’re even a little curious, there’s no pressure. Let’s just have a conversation and see if this path could be right for you. Schedule a time here: https://zurl.co/eaBTL #FranchiseConsulting #FranchiseCoach #Entrepreneurship #PlanBandCConsulting

The Career Move No One Regrets I’ve never met a business owner who said: “I wish I had waited longer to start.” But I’ve met plenty of people who stayed in jobs they hated for years because they were too afraid to take the leap. It’s normal to have doubts. But the people who move forward? They don’t let fear make their decisions for them. What’s a decision you made that completely changed your career for the better? ?? #CareerGrowth #EntrepreneurMindset #FranchiseFreedom

The “Safe” Path Isn’t So Safe Anymore What’s the worst career advice you’ve ever received? For me, it’s: “Find a good job and stick with it.” Because “good jobs” disappear. Companies restructure. Roles get outsourced. Suddenly, that “safe” choice isn’t so safe. That’s why more people are looking at business ownership—not just for the money, but for control over their future. What career advice did you follow… and later regret? Drop it below. ?? #JobSecurity #FranchiseOwnership #BeYourOwnBoss

Franchise Myth Busting - "I Can’t Afford a Franchise" A lot of people tell me, “I’d love to own a business, but I just don’t have a million dollars lying around.” Here’s the truth — most franchises don’t cost anywhere near that. Plenty of solid franchise options fall in the $100k to $150k range, and some are even under $100k. Plus, there are financing options most people don’t know about — SBA loans, using your retirement funds (penalty-free), even franchise-specific lenders who actually understand the business model. Bottom line: If you’ve been thinking about franchising but assumed it was out of reach financially, let’s have a conversation. You might be surprised at what’s possible.

The Best Investment You’ll Ever Make Investing in stocks is great. Real estate? Smart move. But the best investment? Yourself. A business doesn’t just make you money—it gives you skills, freedom, and something to call your own. The right franchise? Even better. It’s a business with a roadmap. If you had to bet on something today, would you bet on yourself? Let’s hear it. ?? #Entrepreneurship #FranchiseOwnership #MindsetShift

You’re More Qualified Than You Think Most people don’t start businesses because they think they’re not “business people.” But what does that even mean? ?? You’ve solved problems. ?? You’ve managed projects. ?? You’ve built relationships. That’s business. A franchise just gives you the playbook and support to make it work. If you could run a business without starting from scratch, what industry would you choose? Drop it below! ?? #FranchiseCoach #BeYourOwnBoss #CareerShift
