"Since signing on with Franchise FastLane in 2018, the SPENGA franchise sales process has been completely revamped and in turn has welcomed over 100 franchisees into the SPENGA family. Franchise FastLane has been an invaluable resource for the SPENGA team and has helped to streamline the process of candidate engagement, from initial informational calls, through finalized signings. In addition to vetting qualified candidates, Franchise FastLane has also completely revamped SPENGA’s Discovery Day - taking care of every detail including a blueprint for how to deliver a memorable experience for candidates."

"We chose Franchise FastLane for lots of great reasons, but the number one reason was (outside of them being great people) was their strong relationships with consultants in the franchise world. The name "Franchise FastLane" is well known in the consultant world and we wanted to be associated with that. Before FastLane, we struggled with growth. We had 7 units when we started, and we are now at 87 units sold and opened! We have even been recognized as the Top 14th Fastest-Growing Franchise by Entrepreneur Magazine in 2021. Franchise FastLane does an amazing job at vetting candidates before they bring them to our team. They present the right people and give us the ability to approve those candidates as well."

Our team at Franchise FastLane is a part of the Monster Tree Family and they look out for our brand to ensure we are connecting with the right candidates. They have been instrumental in our growth.

"Since partnering with FFL, we ranked on the Inc. 5000 fastest-growing companies list, placed 32 on the Inc. 5000 Midwest Regionals list, and were named a Top 100 Fitness Franchise by Franchise Connect. We didn’t do that alone! We feel that the FFL is a direct extension to the SPENGA team and know they take just as much pride in our growth as we do. Their professionalism and culture is unmatched and we couldn't be more fortunate to work side by side with them."

"Outdoor Living Brands is excited to have partnered with Franchise FastLane to develop our youngest and fastest-growing brand, Conserva Irrigation. We’ve been thrilled and very impressed with the quality of the people, processes, and systems used by Franchise FastLane to launch Conserva Irrigation. Their team has become an extension of ours and we quickly developed confidence that they understand our brand and culture as they help us to recruit the next generation of top-performing Conserva franchisees."

"I was introduced to Franchise FastLane by the founder of The Brothers That Just Do Gutters. He went on and on about how Franchise FastLane supports their franchisees and operations. When I asked him about development he said “we just use FastLane!” I’m so hands off in the whole development side that they probably do 10 things that are super amazing and super helpful that I probably don’t even know about. Franchise FastLane has always been here when I have a question for them, they’re super easy to work with, and we got the results that I was looking for. Since coming on to the FastLane I’ve become a way better franchisor than I was before. I feel as if I’m helping franchisees 10 fold over what I was before."

"It took me 5 years to get to 15 franchisees. I did everything wrong and I learned that when I started to explore FastLane and the process that they use. Now we’re at 60 locations, the growth has been exponential! And even more importantly, I understand the process. FastLane has always been very receptive, but as a good sales person, I realize how good they are. The whole relationship between us and FastLane has been dynamic and responsive and reflects the love and support we have for one another, I love the FastLane."

"Prior to FastLane, we were doing our own sales and it was very painful. There was no process, no system, it was just “let’s put someone on a Zoom call and see if they’re interested or a good fit” With FastLane by the time a candidate reaches me at the founder stage, they’ve already done unit economics, mapping, and understand the whole backstory and vision. And I ask every single candidate when they reach me, “how’s the process been?” and they’re like, “holy cow this it top notch, super professional” Working with Don, Mike and Carin? We’re like family at this point. They know what I want to see in a candidate and I know what they’re going through on the front end with so much demand for our model. It makes my job as the founder really easy because we just get high quality candidates that are excited about the brand and that’s all because the heavy lifting that Franchise FastLane does on the front end."

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a franchise development company do?

A franchise development company gives business owners a clear path to scale. At Franchise FastLane, that means refining your systems, connecting you with qualified candidates, and guiding you through the process just like we’ve done for the brands featured on our Brands page. 

How do franchise development services help me grow and expand my business?

The right services take what you’ve built and make it easier to replicate in new markets. They create structure, provide marketing and sales support, and help you avoid the common challenges franchisors face.   

What challenges do franchisors face without a franchise development service?

Many franchisors struggle with trying to do everything at once. They are supporting their growing franchisee system while also managing marketing, compliance, and candidate recruitment. It is challenging to focus on building and expanding the business simultaneously. By outsourcing to a development partner like Franchise FastLane, franchisors can stay focused on supporting franchisees and strengthening their position in the industry. 

 

FastLane also brings credibility that new franchisors cannot achieve independently. When a brand joins a franchise sales organization like ours, it gains instant recognition and trust in consultant networks. Being associated with the FastLane name signals that the brand is stable, vetted, and prepared to support future franchisees the right way, right away.       

Do you work with emerging brands?

Absolutely. Emerging brands are our specialty. Many of the companies in our portfolio began with a single location, and with our support, they’ve grown into thriving national systems. 

What is the CarPool Program?

The CarPool Program is designed for brands that want to keep development in-house and grow at their own pace. This could be a new brand preparing for larger expansion, or an established brand that already has a developer but only wants to grow 10–20 units a year. CarPool members gain access to FastLane’s backend support, including compliance resources, sales materials, proven marketing assets, and our technology platforms, such as Frick and FastLane Playbooks. They also receive one-on-one coaching and benefit from being associated with the Franchise FastLane name, while still maintaining control over their development speed.       

Why do some franchises fail?

Most failures stem from moving too quickly or launching without solid systems in place. Our role at Franchise FastLane is to make sure your brand avoids those mistakes, keeping growth steady and supported. 

What’s included in franchise development services?

We focus on essentials, such as refining your FDD, creating a strong discovery process, and guiding marketing and sales efforts. These services are part of why franchisors choose us as their trusted partner, as highlighted on our Why Franchise FastLane page. 

How quickly can I scale with Franchise FastLane?

Every brand grows at its own pace, but many of our partners are amazed at how quickly their dream of scaling becomes reality—sometimes hitting milestones in two years that other brands take a decade to reach. 

Do you support brands after launch?

Yes. We act as an extension of your team, continuing to drive development so you can stay focused on your franchisees. That ongoing partnership is one reason many franchisors share their experiences in our online Testimonials

How do I know if franchise development services are right for me?

If you’re ready to expand but want to build a healthy franchise system      the right way, right away, you may be a strong fit. Submitting your application is a helpful first step in understanding your current position.
