ABOUT MELISSA POWELL
I am a skilled 20-year accounting professional who decided to take the leap this year and start my own business, Powell Franchise Group. I attended high school at Academy of Notre Dame in Villanova, PA and went on to graduate summa cum laude from Howard University in Washington, DC with a Bachelors of Business Administration degree. I have worked in various leadership roles at Deloitte, E*Trade, Discovery Communications and, most recently, Amazon. My company, Powell Franchise Group is a full-service franchise consulting and business development firm with access to more than 700 franchise brands in 25 different industries. Our consultation process is a proven method of identifying and researching franchise opportunities that present a true opportunity for success for our clients and their target markets. Our primary goal is to help clients navigate through the entire process and build a business for themselves and their family.With over 4,400 franchise concepts available in the United States alone, searching for the right franchise can be a daunting task. In addition, not all franchises are created equally and even the top-rated franchises are not always the best fit for all individuals. Our process takes a close look at the client\'s goals, experience, strengths, weaknesses, desired lifestyle and more to help them find the opportunities that present a realistic opportunity for long term success and happiness.During a quick 15-minute assessment, we also help established, successful businesses determine if franchising is right for them. A consultation and study of your business will be conducted to determine if it is “franchise-able.” Services include a step-by-step process to take the client\'s existing business through the franchising procedure including everything they will need: the creation of franchise disclosure documents, development of an operations manual, state of the art legal advice, support for state registrations, and critical sales & marketing services.Even though I recently started this business, I feel it is my calling. I love talking to and coaching people all over the US and bringing them additional income and the self-sufficiency of business ownership (and my services are free). Many of these brands even allow people to keep their day job and offer semi-absent or passive ownership! Please connect with me if you want to learn more.
