FranStack is a research and matching tool for franchise consultants. It weighs each brand's FDD history, its development team and its discovery process against your client's capital, hours, location and goals, and keeps a dated record of why every brand made the shortlist.
30 minute live walkthrough on a sample client. Free during the beta.
Your clients put in their savings and years of their lives. FranStack exists so every brand you put in front of them has been checked against all the relevant data points, not the marketing material alone.
Everything FranStack does happens before your client signs, because that is when the facts can still shape the decision.
The FDD is where every check starts. It shows a brand's history. It does not show how the franchisor works with candidates, or whether the business suits this client.
People and process are rated by consultants who worked with the brand.
Good brand, good team, but discovery moved on before your client had the opportunity to fully grasp the value proposition of the business.
Good brand, careful process, but questions went unanswered and your client felt hurried toward a yes.
Good team, careful process, but not a model your client's capital, hours or skills suit.
FranStack weighs all three before a brand reaches your shortlist.
Your client sees the key facts side by side, before they commit their capital. You recommend with confidence, because the facts are in front of you.
Investment, fees, units and disclosed performance for each brand, side by side and ready to send. Fit scores and your private notes stay in your account.
A shortlist is a starting point, not a guarantee of results. Clients should still read the full FDD, speak with current and former franchisees, and have a franchise attorney and an accountant review it before signing.
things weighed for every client, against every brand
Every brand is scored for fit with this client, and "How this scored" shows why.
Consultants share how each brand's development team and discovery process worked for their clients. The more you share, the more you get back, and the more your peers share, the stronger the picture becomes for you.
FDD figures show the FDD and its year, so you can check any fact yourself.
It does not sell franchises, predict earnings or promise results. Reading Item 19, calling current franchisees and an attorney's review stay part of your process.
Web software you log into, on a computer or phone. You add a client, it builds a scored shortlist from every brand on record, and you compare brands side by side and export a PDF for your client.
No. FranStack is a simple but highly effective tool for you and your industry peers. It helps networks, brokers and independent consultants work with more precision for the benefit of their clients, and that helps you. You keep your network.
It is free during the beta. You will see the price before you pay anything.
Hundreds, and the list keeps growing.
You and your industry peers, through an interactive process. The more you share, the more you get back, and the more your peers share, the stronger the data set becomes for you.
Only you. Client files are private to your account. Other consultants and franchisors never see them.
