SPONSORSHIP INFORMATION

OVERVIEW

The Franchise Summit attracts successful senior executives who can afford the franchise fee and are looking to invest in the Franchisor that is right for them. Most have heavy marketing & sales management backgrounds which provides the best odds of franchise success (improves your track record). Selected sponsors receive a speaking opportunity, a 6 foot draped exhibit table, electricity, WiFi, breakfast and lunch for two sponsorship representatives. Be sure to reserve early to avoid a wait list situation.

In addition to the pre event networking, there is a mid-afternoon break, allowing every single attendee plenty of time to meet with vendors of interest.

The Franchise Summit series provides unmatched exposure to Qualified Franchisee Prospects within the top 30 metro markets. The attendees are ready to purchase, have the right skills and are financially qualified. Franchisors have the opportunity to present and share knowledge about their franchise opportunity with prospective Franchisees. A seminar schedule is planned for each event covering topics related to successful franchise ownership, franchise operations, and financing options.
