As an original founder and creator of the International Franchise Professionals Group (Emeritus) I assisted with the development, design, infrastructure, strategy, organization, established the name of the group, and determined the guidelines and procedures for this online for profit subscription endeavor.  With extensive experience in franchising, as both Franchisee and Franchisor I’ve has been involved with both start up and major franchisors throughout my career.

Kim is an invaluable resource when it comes to franchising. Rare today, he is exactly who he portrays on his social media; a tireless supporter of franchisees, ethical franchising, and meaningful franchise reform. Kim helps selflessly and is a wealth of knowledge in the industry from both the franchisee and franchisor sides.

Keith Miller

Principal at Franchisee Advocacy Consulting

“Kim is an unabashed advocate for franchisees. He’s been in the industry long enough to see the good, the bad, and the ugly. When he sees the ugly, he’s not afraid to speak out or challenge others so that the ugly is exposed. Mostly, Kim wants to see the good succeed and see the bad be forced to move towards the good and a place where all stakeholders in the industry succeed”.
