Description

He’s the unabashed king of franchises.
Meet Greg Flynn, the visionary behind Flynn Restaurant Group and Flynn Properties, boasting over 2,400 franchises like Applebee’s, Taco Bell, Panera, and more. His $4 billion empire spans 44 states and employs 73,000 people.
In this episode from the archives, Greg unveils the secrets of his success, like why he remains a true restaurant operator, how he views the art of running a franchise like a collaborative business process, and how the franchising model allows you to focus on what truly matters.
Yeah—this is an episode you won’t want to miss and maybe want to view twice. It's just. THAT GOOD.

There’s more than one way to find financial freedom. Most startups are doomed to fail, but there’s an alternative route for hungry entrepreneurs. One that involves far less risk, far more work-life balance and just as much profit. Franchises. This is the podcast that gives aspiring franchise owners the playbook to build a multi-unit franchise empire of their own. Every episode we hear from guests who are building their franchise empire: Franchisees who started with one unit and aren’t stopping until they get to dozens, hundreds, or even thousands more locations. Hosted by The Wolf, you’ll hear exactly how to turn your ambition into tangible actions and take your first steps up the franchise ladder. You’ll get a breakdown on the steps you need to take open your first franchise, your second location, and beyond, along with the pitfalls to avoid. We answer all your questions about owning and running your franchise with relatable guests, sharing their first hand experience. To get started on your franchise owning journey, tune in on March 3rd for our season premiere, with new episodes every Tuesday. Make sure to subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.
