MEET THE FOUNDER & CEO

Hey, I'm Glen!

I started International Quest Franchising because I’ve seen what happens when great businesses try to franchise without the right structure—it’s chaos.


That’s why I created a clear, direct "3D" system: Diagnose, Design, Deploy - a three-phase approach that helps growth-minded founders expand without losing control of what made them great in the first place.

Thinking About Franchising?

What You Should Know Before You Commit.

FACT: Franchising builds empires - not overnight success stories.

FACT: It’s not a shortcut to riches - and it’s not for every business.

FACT: If your business qualifies, franchising can turn hustle into history - a legacy!

What if your next move wasn’t harder… just smarter?

Your Next Evolution Starts Here

Franchising might not just be an option - It might be your next evolution!

Do any of these sound familiar?

  • You're frustrated because of stagnant growth due to limited market reach

  • You're profitable, but can't expand on profits alone

  • You want to expand, but have yet to find "managers" that are as dedicated as you

The Franchise System Stack

Here’s how we build a franchise system that actually scales—without breaking what makes you special

Phase

What Gets Built

Focus

Diagnose

Assess what’s working, what’s missing

Brand strength, process consistency, owner dependency, profit clarity

Design

blueprint & build the core systems + frameworks

IP, SOPs, manuals & guides, departments, training docs, tech stack, support roles

deploy

Launch your franchise engine

state approvals, accelerated onboarding, rapid knowledge transfer, sales funnels, marketing campaigns, awards

Filing makes it legal. We make it operational.

We don’t do "Lawyer & Hope". We diagnose - then design and deploy systems that scale.

Your franchising foundation

Is Your Business Franchise Ready?

For business owners exploring franchising as a growth strategy, our Franchise Readiness Evaluation helps determine whether the concept and company are positioned for successful expansion. This four-part framework reviews the essential building blocks of a Franchiseable business:

1. People - Leadership & Team Depth

Franchising introduces new demands on time, communication, and oversight. Founders and senior leaders must be ready to shift from working in the business to working on it—supporting others, building systems, and aligning a growing network.

2. Processes -Duplicability / SOPs

Successful franchises are built on replicable systems. Documented procedures, consistent training, and a reliable customer experience are required to ensure new locations can launch and perform with confidence.

3. Profitability

Franchisees look for opportunity and return. Your model must offer a strong value proposition—competitive startup costs, realistic ramp-up timelines, and attractive margins to stand out from other franchise options.

4. Positioning

Clear brand identity and market differentiation are critical. Can someone understand your concept, values, and value proposition in under a minute? The right branding and positioning attract the right partners.

Frequently Asked Questions

What It Looks Like to Work Together

How long does this take?

In just 2 weeks, we diagnose your business and deliver a complete franchise blueprint. Over the next 90 days, we design the systems, tools, and structure that form the foundation for scalable growth.

FAQ image

How much does it cost?

Initial consultations are free.

The Diagnose phase (Weeks 1–2) is billed at $2,500 per week, with the option to cancel at the end of each week with written notice.

The Design phase ranges from $25,000 to $45,000, depending on the scope of services selected.

The Deploy phase is typically $0–$5,000, covering essential setup (based on Design phase services).

Following state approval, additional services can be contracted on a fixed-price or time-based model, as agreed.

FAQ image

Is my business to small?

Size doesn’t determine franchise potential - scalability does.
If your business is profitable, repeatable, and in demand, you’re likely further along than you think - and it’s worth a conversation.


Franchising isn’t about how big you are today - it’s about your systems, your margins, and the market waiting to grow with you.

FAQ image

Do I need to hire a bunch of people to franchise?

No. We design a smart franchise system built on clear processes, smart outsourcing, and effective technology—so you can focus on high-impact roles, not headcount.

As you grow, you’ll need to add key support roles—but not build a large internal team. With a lean mindset and the right systems, you can scale without bloating your overhead.

FAQ image

How involved will I need to be in the process?

Your input is vital throughout the process. During the Diagnose phase, your authority to allocate resources, make decisions, and ensure necessary materials are provided is paramount to setting the project up for success.

In the Design phase, your insights and feedback remain crucial as we develop systems and documentation. Typically, we hold weekly feedback sessions and bi-weekly delivery meetings to keep you fully engaged.

Meanwhile, we handle the heavy lifting - building the franchise structure - while you guide direction and make key decisions.
