Ep 30: Wes Barefoot - Perks of Being Your Own Boss
Whether you're a successful business owner or trying to start your own business for the first time, franchising may be a great opportunity to take charge of your life and create freedom for yourself. Wes has reaped enormous benefits through franchising, not only in terms of financial resources, but also in terms of having far more control over “his time, schedules, and livelihood.” Instead of being tied by an employer, he has now become the master of his own destiny.
Wes Barefoot is a driven entrepreneur with substantial franchising expertise. He has years of experience as a franchisee as well as working with franchisors in a range of operational, managerial, and franchise development roles with several franchise firms. He now offers consultancy services based on his extensive knowledge. Wes also hosts a podcast that encourages people to begin or continue their journey to financial independence by looking into various business opportunities.
There’s a myriad of franchise options available these days. Some are good, while others aren't, and figuring out which one is the best fit for you without help can be a challenging job. As a professional franchise consultant, Wes now assists others to understand franchising and determine if it's a suitable fit for them. “My goal is to simply educate people, assist them to realize the benefits of investing in the proper franchise, and then take them through the due diligence process,” he explains.
