Franchise owners have options to improve or exit a failing business

Part of the United Franchise Group (UFG) family of affiliated brands and consultants, Exit Factor continues to expand domestically and internationally, driving investments in the leadership and resources needed to support its growing franchise network.

If you had told me 10 years ago that I would not only be a franchise business owner but an owner of two separate franchises with five total territories, I would have laughed.

Exit Factor has been ranked top in Inc.'s Regionals: Southeast list, achieving exceptional growth and adding jobs and revenue to the region's economy.

The global business services market is worth over $370 billion, driven by demand for expertise in AI, digital transformation, and ESG, with 20 business services and consulting franchise brands offering opportunities for entrepreneurs.

As entrepreneurs and investors explore the franchise landscape in 2025, the appeal of low-cost opportunities remains a significant draw.

Franchise owners should plan their exit strategy when buying another franchise to ensure a smooth transition.

Franchise resale offers a significant head start compared to starting a new location from scratch, providing established operations and a built-in customer base.

United Franchise Group prioritizes customer experience to drive franchisee profits within its diverse franchise brands.

Several service brands have announced expansion plans, including Buddy’s Home Furnishings, Exit Factor, GLO30, Hand & Stone, and Hounds Town USA.

Exit Factor becomes a franchise in the Starpoint Brands division of United Franchise Group, offering a consulting program for business owners.

United Franchise Group welcomed Exit Factor to its business consulting division, offering resources and expertise to help small to mid-size business owners increase valuation and reduce sale time.
