Why Franchise FastLane?

2. Grow Faster to Avoid the Slow Death

We have all heard if you aren’t growing you’re dying. The same holds true for business owners asking, "how to franchise my business," especially if they process drags on too long. Slow growth still requires much of the same systems to support franchisees but doesn’t provide the capital needed to hire people and invest in those systems. To grow your franchise into a sustainable brand, you must quickly grow and build your team and resources.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I choose Franchise FastLane to franchise my business?

FastLane brands average three times more franchise sales in the first year compared to industry norms. You can see this momentum across our brand portfolio, where concepts moved from local success to national recognition. 

What makes franchising my business with FastLane different?

We are highly selective, working only with brands that have the potential to be The Next Big Thing. This focus enables us to direct our energy towards our chosen few, which is why thousands of territories have been awarded through FastLane since its inception in 2017. 

How do you support me beyond sales?

Franchising is more than awarding units. We refine your FDD, strengthen discovery, and coach leadership, which helps you avoid the issues outlined in Franchisor Challenges. Beyond sales, our partners also benefit from our MasterMind program, which brings franchisors together for peer learning, expert coaching, and collaboration. We also provide a Brand Health Assessment, giving franchisors additional insight into their long-term stability and growth. You can learn more about how we foster collaboration and leadership through our MasterMind program.       

Do you work with every brand that wants to franchise?

No. We turn away many brands to focus on those with the strongest foundations. Businesses not yet ready often enter our CarPool program, which helps them prepare before entering the FastLane. 

How quickly can I franchise my business with FastLane?

Timelines vary, but FastLane brands often scale years faster than industry averages. Many reach milestones within twelve months that would otherwise take a decade, creating future value that has led to acquisitions at record multiples. To date, FastLane has helped place more than 5,000 franchise units into communities nationwide, representing over 1,700 entrepreneurs. You can see the full list of brands we have helped in our brands portfolio

Our leadership team has served as founders, franchisees, and executives across top national brands. That decades-deep perspective is one reason Entrepreneur Magazine has recognized FastLane for multiple years in a row. 

How does FastLane save me money as a new franchisor?

Hiring even one salaried development professional can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. With FastLane, you gain a full team that provides sales support, compliance and legal coordination, marketing, operations guidance, tech access, discounted vendor agreements, and added visibility through sponsorships and events. All of this comes without the overhead, and with a success-based fee structure that means we only grow when you grow.
