What it Means to be a Top Franchise for Women

Female franchise owners are highly satisfied with Supporting Strategies’ performance, according to a recent independent study.

In Franchise Business Review’s 2017 “Top Franchises for Women” report, Supporting Strategies ranked among the best franchise investments for women.

“Supporting Strategies is very honored to be named to the 2017 Top Franchises for Women list,” Leslie Jorgensen, Supporting Strategies Founder and CEO, said. “The results reflect our drive to offer entrepreneurial opportunities for all, particularly women. We are very pleased our franchisees are happy with the core values we represent and the support we offer them.”

 The survey consisted of 300 franchises, representing 6,400 female franchisees, all of whom were asked 33 benchmark questions pertaining to their experience and satisfaction regarding critical areas of their franchise systems, including leadership, training and support, financial opportunity, and work-life balance.

So how did Supporting Strategies finish among the very best? According to our franchisees, we excel in several key categories.

• Overall, Supporting Strategies received a 4.1 (“very good”) rating out of 5 from its franchisees.
• Franchisees gave Supporting Strategies a “very good” or higher rating for categories such as “leadership,” “core values as a company,” and “franchise community.”
• More than 7 out of 10 franchisees say we provide a work-life balance that is either “balanced” or “very balanced.”

“The franchise industry provides many options to women seeking business ownership on a full- or part-time basis in multiple sectors,” Michelle Rowan, President of Franchise Business Review, said. “The number of franchise opportunities can be overwhelming, so it’s critical to examine feedback from other female franchise owners on how well the franchise meets their expectations in terms of support, work-life balance, financial opportunity, and other key areas of business ownership.”
