still have questions?

: We work with a wide range of clients but most are looking to either expand an existing portfolio of businesses or replace their current W-2 job with a franchise.
: We don't require a contract to work with Sidekick but we do insist that you are committed to the process.
: The discovery process typically takes around 90 days.
: Yes! One of our most popular funding strategies is using a program called ROBS that allows clients to access their 401k tax and penalty-free. We have dedicated partners that are experts in guiding our clients through the process.

Did we mention our services are free?

Just like a real estate agent is paid by the home seller, franchise advisors are paid by the franchise brand, or franchisor. This means our services are completely free for our clients, no matter if they purchase a franchise or not.

This pricing structure has helped THOUSANDS of families become business owners through franchising. Our team has helped award over 5,000 TERRITORIES in the last five years.
