Q: How do Business Consultants/Coaches get paid?

Each person who registers for the Start a Business Weekend will be assigned a highly-trained Entrepreneur's Source Coach.

All E-Source Coaches are graduates of the E Source Academy, which offers intensive training on coaching skills, franchising and self-employment issues. The Entrepreneur's Source success is consistently recognized by Entrepreneur magazine within their annual Franchise 500 rankings and by the International Franchise Association trade organization.

Q: Are there any costs or obligations to attend the Start a Business Weekend?

There is absolutely no cost or obligation to attend any of our conferences, either in person or virtually from the comfort of your own home or office. We highly encourage prior registration so that we can have plenty of free hand-out materials for everyone and introduce you to your new E-Source Coach who will help guide you through the event.

Q: Why should I consider franchise opportunities?

For anyone considering self-employment or starting a new business, franchises have several and compelling powerful characteristics. Franchises offer complete business format systems and intensive training that allows someone to quickly start a business and become operational. Franchises offer time-tested, proven systems so you do not have to "reinvent the wheel" and you benefit directly from many others having used the same system in other markets. Franchises promote and protect a brand that benefits all involved in the on-going growth of that business. Franchise companies offer many support and training services to their franchisees as a means to greater efficiencies and financial results. Franchise companies and existing franchisees offer a historic track record to individuals who wish to explore what the result of owning that franchise business may be. All of these things combined also typically make it easier to obtain business funding before you start, and easier to sell when you want to move on to something new.
