Kris Simonich
Senior Franchise Consultant
Kris has held every major role in franchising, having been a franchisor, a franchisee, a consultant and now, coach.

Then, he became a franchisor, founding the nation’s first energy auditing franchise system, building a network of successful franchisees from coast to coast. Since then, Kris has helped build scores of franchise systems from the ground up, overseeing every aspect of the creation and then proliferation of a franchise system for his clients.

His expansive franchise experience gives him a unique perspective that informs not only how he evaluates franchise brands for his clients but also how he coaches his clients to understand the franchise brands they are considering.
Like most franchise industry insiders, Kris didn’t graduate from college with the goal of conquering the franchise industry. Instead, he graduated with an English degree from the University of IL – Chicago ready to make his mark in literature. But, when the realities and pressures of those 4 kids mentioned earlier, franchising, thankfully and happily, became his destiny!
