Life Before Franchising

Empire Builders discuss their early days in business, and how those experiences led them into franchising. Some began as teenagers, working summers at a fast food chain. Others came to franchising gradually, as an adjunct to their existing ventures. And some left successful corporate careers behind in favor of working for themselves or following their passion.
