After growing up in Iowa and South Dakota, Harold served in the U.S. Navy in the early 80s, and after getting out in 1987 held multiple sales and marketing positions at various firms. In 1993 Harold bought his first Radio Shack franchise unit, and after a number of painful early-stage learning experiences sought to perfect the art of managing and replicating franchise and multi-unit corporate businesses in the fields of Tax Consulting, Insurance, Mortgage Lending, and quickly evolved into consulting for dozens of startups looking to scale in industries as diverse as Hydrogen-powered cars to high-tech oil pumps. Through spending large blocks of time with entrepreneurs in diverse fields, Harold slowly learned the difference between a great business model, and a great “replicate-able” business model by focusing on one entrepreneur at a time in a focused, boutique fashion. After helping a number of companies both small and large launch and improve their systems, Harold joined one of the largest consultancies in the franchise industry in 2012 as an Executive V.P.
In 2015, Harold decided that major changes were needed in the way in which franchise consulting firms serving entrepreneurs who are scaling their business conducted themselves. More focus, more attention, and more modern technology needed to be combined with a more personalized execution which most larger firms simply do not do well. At the end of 2015, Harold formed Franchise Science, a boutique firm who employs top talent in every category of development consulting on behalf of a much smaller group of clients to give more focused training in a more all-inclusive method.
When not living on airplanes and serving clients with his team, Harold is an avid reader of books related to economics, strategic planning, and using creative business strategies to solve large problems in the world. When not hosting multiple training seminars and consulting meetings across the U.S. he also enjoys travelling the globe meeting the interesting technologists, inventors, and business builders who are creating solutions to make the world a much better place.view less
