SpringGreen Leadership Summit Brings Top Franchise Owners Together to Build Wealth and Business Value

June 12, 2026 // Franchising.com // CHICAGO, Ill. – SpringGreen recently brought together a group of franchise owners for its 2026 Leadership Summit, an event focusing on leadership topics, financial intelligence, business growth, and long-term wealth creation.

Held in Chicago, the two-day summit addressed leadership topics for franchise owners and the support center. Attendees discussed approaches to strengthen performance, develop personnel, and support long-term growth.

"Our franchise owners work incredibly hard to grow their businesses," said Brad Johnson, President of SpringGreen. "This event is about helping all of us think differently about the future so that we can ultimately work to achieve the personal and financial goals that inspired them to become business owners in the first place."

Topics included business valuation and exit planning, examining the long-term value of businesses and factors contributing to future wealth-building opportunities.

"The best time to prepare a business for sale isn't when you're ready to exit. It's years before," said Mark Potocki, Vice President of Business Development at SpringGreen. "Owners who focus on building strong systems, recurring revenue and sustainable growth are often in the best position to maximize value and create options for the future."

The Leadership Summit covered topics related to franchise owner training, leadership, accountability, financial intelligence, and long-term planning. The discussion focused on methods to build resilient businesses that generate value for owners, their families, employees, and customers.
