Parlin NJ, February 1, 2016 -- The Entrepreneur Authority (TEA)
and Veteran Franchise Centers (VFC) announced its strategic
alliance with the International Franchise Professional Group
(IFPG), making the organization now 800+ strong.
IFPG is a leading professional association that brings together
members of the franchise industry - franchisors, franchise
consultants, coaches, lenders and attorneys. The Entrepreneur
Authority and Veteran Franchise Centers have a team of
well-seasoned and experienced franchise consultants which will be a
great addition to IFPG's already existing group of consultants.
The Entrepreneur Authority was founded by former Accenture
executive, David Omholt, in 2002. Omholt has consulted and/or
brokered for major franchise brands such as AAMCO, Charles Schwab,
Denny's, Great Clips, Potbelly's, and Radio Shack, as well as
hundreds of others in every industry segment in the US, Canada and
Mexico.
Omholt and many of the TEA Consultants are Certified Franchise
Executives (CFEs), the highest accreditation in the franchise
industry. TEA is the only franchise brokerage network to ever win
the Chairman's Award from the American Association of Franchisees
and Dealers (AAFD), the largest trade association advocating for
franchisees.
Additionally, Omholt serves as President and Managing Consultant
of Veteran Franchise Centers (VFC). VFC is a service for veterans
looking to learn more about the franchise buying process and
military-friendly options in the market. All VFC consultants have
many years of experience placing candidates into the right
franchise concepts and are known and the franchise industry's
"dream team."
The IFPG, founded in 2012 by entrepreneur Don Daszkowski, was
formed to help franchise professionals communicate more
effectively, network and collaborate with one another. All members
of the group support the same goal -to create successful new
franchisees.
IFPG members receive immediate access to industry experts,
unprecedented networking opportunities and best-in-class
professional education that includes virtual round tables and
webinars on critical topics such as sales and development or
marketing and PR.
"We are very excited to be working with David and his team at
the Entrepreneur Authority and Veteran Franchise Centers. Their
industry reputation is stellar and they were exactly what we are
looking for," said IFPG founder Don Daszkowski. Omholt agrees that
the strategic alliance will provide a win-win arrangement for the
organizations and positions both IFPG and TEA/VFC as the preeminent
leaders in the franchise brokerage space. "The alliance makes sense
from all angles and allows us to better serve our clients with an
enhanced infrastructure and best-of-breed resources," said
Omholt.
