SPEAKER BIO
FranNet is a 37+ year leader in franchise consulting, with a primary goal of supporting aspiring entrepreneurs interested in exploring business ownership through franchising. We use a methodical, strategic process to assist clients with research and due diligence to identify the right franchise that aligns with their financial, life, and interest goals. We also help small businesses with a proven business model explore replicating their operations using the franchise distribution model to grow regionally and nationally.
Sean joined FranNet in August 2024 and is a Certified Franchise Consultant. Sean is also a CPA and CGMA. Prior to FranNet, Sean had over 10 years of experience with franchising, both as a franchise business owner with Better Living Patio Rooms, which he acquired with the help of FranNet in 1989 and as a leader at the esteemed Jackson Hewitt Tax Services (JH), where he held multiple management roles supporting franchisees.
Sean’s years at JH included roles in business development, franchise sales, and acquisitions, during which he collaborated with marketing and third-party consulting firms to identify franchisees who were a strong fit. Many of these franchisees became long-term, multi-unit owners, with several growing into the largest franchisees by sales and profitability.
Beyond franchising, Sean has held several executive management positions, most recently at Broadridge Financial Solutions, a global fintech provider serving the financial services industry, where he oversaw two business units.
