Franchisors who work with Franchise Sidekick are exactly the kind of partners we love supporting. You’re focused on smart growth, and you care about setting your franchisees up to win. That’s where we thrive. We start by pairing you with a CFO-level advisor who understands franchising. We’ll assess where things stand today, identify gaps or risks, and lay out best practices to build on. Then we help implement a scalable financial foundation, first for you, then for your franchisees. Every client also gets a dedicated account manager who understands your system inside and out, making the transition smooth and the support consistent. We’re operators first, not just accountants. We’ve scaled our own franchises and know what it takes to build the infrastructure required to grow cleanly. Below is how we plug in at each key milestone:
Services
-
At Launch: Define you financial model, align the FDD, and build the franchisee chart of accounts. We can handle bookkeeping, payroll, reporting, and more, so your team can focus on growth.
- During Early Growth: Set up reporting tools and a performance rhythm across units, or full run the financial back office for your franchisees if that's the best fit.
-
Preparing for Capital or Exit: Clean up your books, create investor-grade reporting, and ensure you're positioned for debt, equity, or PE conversations.
