1. Do you have $50K+ available to invest?
That's okay. We can still talk through what's realistic for your budget and timeline.
2. Are you open to exploring franchise ownership in the next 6 months?
I’ve spent 20 years as a business investor and entrepreneur, founding an IT firm in Poland, a real estate company in Texas, and a Vanguard Cleaning franchise territory in Houston that I grew to 30+ franchisees and 300+ customers before exiting.
My focus is helping you evaluate franchise opportunities based on your goals, budget, and preferred lifestyle. I’ll help you identify options that genuinely fit what you’re looking for.
My process starts with understanding your goals and budget. Then, I narrow down the best-fit franchises, review key FDD details, and connect you with existing franchisees before you decide.
Franchise ownership done right gives you control of your schedule, your income, and your future, without the guesswork of building a business model from scratch. Here’s what that support looks like in practice.
Get a vetted shortlist of franchises that fit your investment range, experience, and preferred level of involvement.
I'll tell you when a brand isn't the right fit, even if that means recommending you wait or keep looking.
I help you understand key FDD sections, evaluate the business model, and identify questions to ask before moving forward.
The relationship doesn't end at closing. I stay available as you open and grow your new business.
Every candidate follows the same arc; here’s how the journey typically unfolds.
Most people I work with don’t know where to start when investing in a franchise. Many also want to know which franchise opportunities are gaining the most interest and whether they’re a good fit.
I use my experience as a franchise consultant to help you evaluate your options and find opportunities that fit your goals. I guide you through each step so you can make a more informed decision.
My services are free of charge to my candidates. If I introduce you to a franchise that you decide to invest in, it still costs you $0. You will not pay anything for my franchise coaching services.

Straight answers to the questions every
serious candidate asks before their first call.
A franchise consultant listens to your goals, budget, and lifestyle needs, then matches you against a curated portfolio of vetted franchise brands, walks you through the FDD and financials, and coordinates franchisee validation calls before you ever sign anything.
Yes. FranchiseCoach is $0 cost to you at every stage, so the matching, coaching, and due diligence support you receive costs you nothing.
Most candidates move from an initial consultation to a signed franchise agreement in 2 to 4 weeks, with about 15 to 20 hours of investigation on your part, depending on how quickly you complete due diligence, financing, and Discovery Day.
That’s the most common starting point. The discovery process starts with your skills, interests, and financial goals, then narrows a list of 250+ brands down to a short list that actually fits, no industry decision required up front.
A business broker typically sells an existing business for a seller-paid commission. A franchise consultant like Adam Goldman works with prospective franchise buyers to identify and evaluate new franchise opportunities at no cost, with no obligation to buy.
Franchise investments typically range from $50,000 to $500,000+ in total capital required, and that can come from savings, an SBA loan, a retirement rollover (ROBS), or a financing partner. There’s no universal credit score cutoff. Each franchisor sets its own net worth and liquidity requirements, and I’ll help you find brands that actually match what you have to invest.
Yes. Many franchise models are built for semi-absentee or executive ownership, where you hire a manager to run day-to-day operations while you oversee the business part-time. I’ll flag which brands on your shortlist support that structure and which ones require full-time, hands-on involvement.
No. I stay involved through Discovery Day, opening, and your first year of operations, answering questions, making introductions, and helping you work through challenges as they come up. The relationship doesn’t end at closing.
