The Emerging Franchisor Conference (EFC) is designed to address the challenges and opportunities unique to franchise systems with 200 or fewer franchisees. Aimed at founders, CEOs, COOs, presidents, key senior staff members, entrepreneurs, and potential franchisors, the EFC is a prime networking and educational conference for franchisors that are ready to grow their systems. The EFC provides peer-based, tested ideas that work; hands-on learning filled with take-home value; and an unparalleled networking opportunity.

Conference Focus

This is a franchisor-to-franchisor conference for systems with 200 or fewer franchisees. If your franchise system is ready for an aggressive growth plan, this is the conference for you. It gives you the opportunity to network and interact with your peers—other franchisors—who will encourage you to unleash your potential and leave with at least one solid growth idea to implement by November 11, 2007.

Who should attend?

  • Founders, CEOs, COOs, presidents, and other key senior staff
  • Emerging franchisors who want to break away from day-to-day operations and learn from their peers with similar growth issues
  • Entrepreneurs and potential franchisors who are thinking about franchising their business will find the conference invaluable
