Ricky discusses the ideal franchisee for NutritionHQ, someone who is a fitness enthusiast, health-conscious, and passionate about helping others achieve their wellness goals. He prefers owner-operators who can immerse themselves in the community and make a significant impact.
He highlights the flexibility in product selection, allowing franchisees to tailor their inventory to their local market's preferences. Ricky's approach to royalties is innovative, with a sliding scale that rewards franchisees as their sales grow, encouraging continued success.

Ep. 53 - Pouring Success: The Hoppin' Franchise Revolution
 
Welcome to a brand new episode of The Franchise Life Podcast! I'm your host, Stacie Shannon, and today we have an exciting episode for you. We're diving into the world of franchising with a spotlight on the emerging brand, Hoppin'.
Joining me is Rich Moyer, the visionary founder and CEO of Hoppin' Brands. In this engaging conversation, we uncover the fascinating journey of Hoppin' from its inception to its incredible growth as a franchisable model.
"I started right out of high school... I sold that company two months into my fourth year. And that was kind of my trampoline to success."
Rich shares his journey from a golf pro to a serial entrepreneur and how Hoppin' was born out of a need for a tech-based solution in the hospitality industry. With a background in sales, commercial real estate, and tech efficiency, Rich brings a wealth of knowledge to the table. The most recent brand in Rich’s portfolio, Hoppin', stands out in the food and beverage space as a high-tech taproom, offering a unique experience that combines self-pour technology with community-driven vibes.
Discover how Hoppin' eliminates the common headaches of traditional bars and restaurants, reduces waste, and maximizes profits. We delve into the self-pour technology that makes Hoppin' a game-changer in the industry.
But what truly sets Hoppin' apart is its franchise model, designed for investors, managers, retirees, and ultimate hosts. "We don't care... we don't want you to have a restaurant or food and beverage background. Not that we don't want it, but we don't recommend it." Unlike many other brands in the space, Hoppin’ welcomes potential franchisees who are interested in food and beverage industry and do not have any of the preconceived notions that would be present in an individual with an extensive restaurant background.
If you're looking for a franchise opportunity that offers low overhead, community engagement, and a supportive corporate marketing strategy, Hoppin' might be the perfect fit for you.
Join us on this insightful journey into the Hoppin' franchise world and discover why it's attracting investors and entrepreneurs alike. Remember, success begins with leadership, and at Hoppin', everyone's a winner.

Welcome to The Franchise Life podcast, your immersive guide to franchising and limitless business opportunities. In this episode, Stacie highlights a franchise brand called Splash and Dash Groomerie & Boutique, a unique national pet franchise revolutionizing the pet industry. Think Starbucks or Massage Envy for the recession-proof $222.93 billion global pet industry. And joining Stacie is Will Siegel, Director of Franchise Development.
 
When Splash and Dash Groomerie & Boutique was founded in 2008, Dan J. Barton---founder and CEO---had a vision for a profitable pet business that wasn't traditional. He wanted a Clean, Fresh & Modern place without the Wet Dog Smell.
 
Will shares how Splash and Dash is a high-tech business model that offers a recurring monthly revenue stream (memberships) for profitability. But most notably, a place where pet parents like him would feel safe and secure, leaving their four-legged children with skilled, caring, and passionate team members.
 
Stacie and Will dive into how this streamlined model utilizes AI technology to make owners more efficient and get more money, allowing them the opportunity to clean 60-80 dogs per day on their proprietary high-volume production line. You heard that right, 60-80 dogs per day! Along with cleaning, Splash & Dash has additional revenue streams, including dog spa treatments, dog grooming, dog dental, aromatherapy, and even retail items such as dog treats, dog food, and accessories.
 
In the culmination of this enlightening episode, Stacie and Will shed light on the franchise's exceptional growth trajectory and enticing affordability. At a total investment range of $264,200 to $471,000, a Splash and Dash location only requires a retail footprint of 1,000 to 1,300 square feet. This incredible opportunity also allows for semi-absentee ownership, where you can put a manager in place and manage the manager.
 
Whether you're an established entrepreneur or a curious newcomer to the world of franchising, The Franchise Life podcast is your compass to unlocking the secrets of triumphant business ventures. Tune in as Stacie and her perceptive guests unravel the enigma of franchising, one episode at a time. Prepare to embark on a journey with insights, inspiration, and boundless prospects.
