69 Franchising Your Business with Karen Gibb

Karen Gibb from Mind Marvels joins me in this conversation to explain:

  • Why she chose to franchise instead of hiring a team
  • How she held her nerve as she spent money and time in setting everything up
  • Advice she'd give to anyone thinking of franchising

I always love speaking to Karen because she is so honest!  And I know that her insights will give people clarity as they think of ways to grow their businesses - even if not in the direction of franchising.


Enjoy :-)
