Dunkin, Chick-fil-A, McDonalds—franchises are everywhere these days and not just in the restaurant business. This session will take a look at the concept of franchises, including startup costs, revenue streams, what is needed to be successful, and most importantly, what to look for to identify a franchise owner/operator as a potential philanthropic prospect.

Learning Objectives: Attendees will learn about the franchise business model from the perspectives of a former franchisee (now Major Gift Officer) and a prospect researcher. We will explore how to calculate potential revenue and assess an owner/operator’s potential philanthropic capacity.
