"Once you launch a franchise program, you are shifting from the business you formerly managed to an entirely new business. The five drivers Olson identifies in the book are essential for achieving franchising success: Total Management Commitment, Strong Franchisee Satisfaction, Compelling Franchise Program, Successful Marketing, and High Performance Development Program. Each benchmark is described in detail, supported by case studies, industry research and steps taken by franchise leaders from various industries, that enabled them to elevate their organizations to the next level. "If a reference guide like this were available when I started, I would have saved tremendous amounts of time and dollars" notes Olson.
