FRANCHISE BROKER ~ Joe Barbuto, MBA ~ 888-404-5134
What Is a Franchise Broker?
A franchise broker is a trusted advisor who helps aspiring entrepreneurs and investors navigate the complex world of franchising. Rather than selling a single brand, brokers represent a portfolio of vetted franchise opportunities across industries—from food and fitness to home services and B2B solutions.
Think of a franchise broker as a matchmaker and strategist rolled into one. We assess your goals, budget, lifestyle preferences, and risk tolerance, then present options that align with your vision.
