The challenges we solve

Finding experienced franchise recruiters.

FPG provides outsourced recruiters on a full-time or part-time basis depending on the needs of your brand. Our recruiters have strong conversation, presentation and problem-solving skills, but what truly sets our team apart is that they are also well-versed in modern sales techniques such as CRM management, pipeline reporting, and digital marketing. With franchise buyers increasingly using self-directed online research to learn about business opportunities, much of the communication that used to happen over the phone is now happening online. We have the skills to maximize your sales opportunities.

Improving the ROI of your franchise development efforts

By effectively managing your sales pipeline, FPG’s recruiters can help you close more deals and book more revenue, improving the ROI of your franchise recruitment efforts.

By understanding how various marketing efforts are translating into deals, we can lower the cost-per-acquisition of your franchise development advertising and direct dollars to the most effective marketing channels.

We can also save brands money. Many emerging and mid-sized franchise brands do not need a full-time senior-level franchise development director. We provide incremental staffing solutions to help brands access expert talent that fits their needs and budgets.

Simplified oversight

FPG’s team operates at an executive level and can manage all aspects of your franchise development. That includes managing and coaching junior recruiters (yours or ours), providing board-ready reports, and handling franchise marketing efforts. That includes managing relationships with franchise portals, brokers, and third-party advertising partners. Instead of managing a dozen vendors, you only need to keep track of one — us.
