Southbury, CT – For FranchisEsource Brands International (FSBI),
strategic activities in 2007, a brand acquisition and operational
consolidation, are the fuel igniting the plan for aggressive
growth designed specifically around a multi-brand franchise
approach to the marketplace. FSBI (www.franchisEsource.com)
is a multi-brand
franchisor principally engaged in
growing solid concepts into major international franchise brands
such as The Entrepreneur’s Source, Decor & You, Business Advisers
International, Business Partner and FranchiseSearch.com.
“Our 6 national brands are in demand
and offer great investments for the aspiring entrepreneur and for
multi-unit investors, and those researching the various franchise
options,” says Terry Powell, CEO of FSBI. “We have an aggressive
five-year financial plan of being a $750 million company taking
advantage of the multi-unit trends and surge in the business
services sector,” he added.
According to a recent International Franchise Association (IFA)
study, franchise growth today is due to continued expansion of
existing brands, new brands entering existing industries and more
companies using a franchise business model in industries not
typically known for franchising. However, the multi-unit model is
a significant factor in the continuing expansion of franchising.
According to Fortune Small Business, the U.S. is in the middle of
the largest entrepreneurial surge the country has ever seen, says
Powell. Approximately 75,000 corporate employees are laid off
every month, according to outplacement firm Challenger, Gray and
Christmas, that’s 30,000 more per month than just six years ago,
he added.
Today, FSBI has 40 area and regional developers actively working
North American markets to exponentially grow
co-branded/multi-brand models and individual units. FSBI
currently has 544 units represented by their national brands with
a commitment to expand to over 2000 units within a 5 year period.
“We will conservatively reach the 2000 unit mark if December is
any indicator, where 59 new units were opened and became
operational, we are off to an impressive start,” says Powell.
As leaders in business coaching, The Entrepreneur’s Source, TES (www.EsourceCoach.com),
along with its affiliate brand, Business Advisers International,
BAI
(www.AdviCoach.com), with its AdviCoach Advantage, dominates
33% of the multi-billion dollar coaching/consulting franchise
market. FSBI predicts continuing dominance in the business
coaching franchise sector by 2012 by achieving a commanding 45%
market share.
Another FSBI brand, Decor & You (www.DecorAndYou.com),
offers a progressive executive business
multi-unit model with business owners functioning as CEOs
managing professional
interior decorators nationally.
And Business Partner (www.BusinessPartner.com),
the new brand affiliate of FSBI, strongly compliments the FSBI
mission of being a one stop marketing services franchise providing
business owners a full suite of marketing products and services
provided by MktgCoaches.
FSBI online search tool, FranchiseSearch.com (www.FranchiseSearch.com)
with its unique Google Search capabilities, is the premier
Internet resource site for individuals seeking information on
franchising opportunities. It offers a list of proven franchise
concepts, business history, investment requirements and a personal
testimonial and description of the lifestyle each business

“FSBI represents the culmination of over 24 years of in-depth
experience working with hundreds of franchise concepts and

on the market today,” said Powell.
