MY TESTIMONIALS
“I had worked with a broker prior to Scott and the difference in professionalism, pace, and quality of communication was stark! Scott did a great job of connecting with me to qualify what my interests were and was a helpful advisor as I worked through the pros and cons of the different concepts. I also enjoyed how he challenged me to think of things differently based on the needs I had expressed to him. He produced multiple leads, gave me a great deal of time to consider and investigate each franchise but also kept pace with how fast I wanted to move. He really helped bring me to a solid decision on which franchise opportunity was right for me without pressuring me in any way. It was a great experience and I look forward to the next time I am in the market for a new franchise. I will certainly refer anyone interested to work with Scott.”

“Scott offered professional services I didn’t even know I needed! Brand new to the world of business ownership, Scott was able to provide information on not just franchises but insight into ownership. He always made me feel confident in the decisions I was making and, at times, friendly reminders that it’s okay to say no to some options and to go at my pace. He has so many resources available, Mona was a wealth of financial knowledge, the consultant in the business I ended up starting, topped off with his own wisdom. Working with Scott was the best decision I made starting out in business.”

“Being new to wanting to be an entrepreneur- I did not know where to start. I did. Or know Franchise Coaches even existed – until Scotty reached out. I took a chance and am so glad I did. And am so glad it was with Scotty. I love his enthusiasm and collaborative style. Never pushy and always responsive. Every email he writes is his own and not generated by some system. His attention to detail and his manner of supporting is truly appreciated. Even after selecting my Franchise he continues to support and check-in. All round – just a great experience.”

I was born and raised in Long Island, NY. As a rock ‘n’ roll kid with dreams of being a rock star, my aspirations took a different turn because my parents had me thinking about college before I could even walk. Growing up, I always had a knack for spotting opportunities. My entrepreneurial journey began when I started working in a pizzeria at the age of 10. I fell in love with the food business, and my mission to own a restaurant began. I also had side businesses mowing lawns, raking leaves, and shoveling snow. These early experiences taught me the value of hard work and customer satisfaction, laying the foundation for my future endeavors.
During my sophomore year of college, I decided to quit. I had enough of school. When I showed up at my parents’ home, they asked about my plans. I told them I wanted to borrow $20,000 to become a 50% owner in a pizza restaurant with the family I had worked with for years. My father suggested that I work at McDonald’s to learn the ropes and then go to the McDonald’s school of management, but I quickly shot that down. Instead, I pursued a different path, joining a major news organization as a cameraman for the White House Press Corps. It was an exciting and demanding role, offering a front-row seat to historic events. However, despite the thrill and prestige, I felt a persistent tug towards entrepreneurship.
After several years in the news industry, I decided to heed that calling. Leaving behind a stable career, I ventured into the world of business. Over the next three and a half decades, I held various senior leadership positions, each role teaching me invaluable lessons and shaping my understanding of business dynamics. My first biggest achievement was being able to open a restaurant. While it was not the ultimate pizza shop I had dreamed of, my breakfast and lunch cafe worked out just perfectly. But I should have listened to my father with regard to going to school. There is so much more to owning a business than making a pizza!
My proudest achievement was leveraging my development expertise to help build a well-known national fast-casual food concept. This experience not only honed my skills but also deepened my passion for franchising. My dedication and insights have led to invitations to speak on leadership panels at several franchise conferences, a testament to my contributions to the industry.
I am also proud to have earned my certification as a Certified Franchise Executive (CFE), further solidifying my commitment to excellence in franchising. Throughout my journey, one principle has always guided me: prioritizing my clients’ best interests. This commitment has been the cornerstone of my career, driving me to ensure the success and growth of every client I work with.
I provide strategic guidance and support to those that are starting their journey of discovery and education researching business ownership or seeking to diversify their business portfolio.
