Franchise-Focused Marketing Agency
Target individual franchisees within small franchise networks (30-40 locations) and offer GoHighLevel-powered marketing services. Crush it for one franchisee, then leverage that success to sell to every other location in the network. One example from the transcript: a SaaS-preneur with an eight-month-old agency picked up 200 locations from a single fitness franchise network and became an eight-figure company. Another example: someone built a dental DSO-focused agency and sold it for $6 million after just 18 months. The model becomes turnkey since every franchise location needs the same setup.
