Thursday Sep 23, 2021
Thursday Sep 23, 2021
The world of child-centric franchises is an increasingly populated one, with the line between parent and entrepreneur becoming virtually non-existent. This is certainly the case for Rich Elms, who founded his child soccer concept BabyBallers back in 2016.
Popularity prompted Rich to launch the BabyBallers franchise opportunity in 2017, and since then, the brand has expanded beyond its U.K. roots to markets as far as Australia.
But if Rich could go back in time and give himself some advice in 2015, when BabyBallers was just an idea, what would he say to start the brand off on the right foot? And now it’s developing in international markets, what does Rich look for when recruiting new franchising partners? Tune in to find out!

The food and beverage franchise industry is easily one of the most analyzed and celebrated of all sectors in this business model. I’m sure we could all name countless restaurant franchise brands that we’ve loved over the years, and experts have been deciphering what innovations and evolutions work best since we began flipping burgers or slicing pizzas many decades ago.
One organization that’s no stranger to evolution is Focus Brands. The parent company owns six beloved franchise concepts and has an impressive portfolio of more than 1,650 sites across 60 countries around the world. But recent news stories like the opening of the first-ever Auntie Anne’s drive-thru site, or a brand-new build-out for Schlotzsky’s, have shown that this is one franchisor that’s not afraid to try new things.
To learn more about what the future holds for Focus Brands International, we sat down with Beto Guajardo, the franchisor’s president. Beto has many years of experience in senior leadership and is brimming with useful insight that restauranteurs far and wide can put into practice.

The in-home care market has exploded in recent years, with an increasing number of senior citizens looking to receive care in their own homes as opposed to moving into a residential care facility. As such, brands like BrightStar Care have been in fierce demand; with the established care franchisor continuing to grow and expand since its creation back in 2002.
Now with over 345 locations open throughout North America, BrightStar Care has become an institution in the care franchising sphere; with the name being synonymous with empathetic and efficient at-home care and skilled medical services.
But how did BrightStar Care begin, and how is it continuing to differentiate itself in the care market? And, for investors looking to enter this benevolent space, what personality traits and experience are best for finding success? To find out, we caught up with Shelly Sun, founder and CEO of BrightStar Care.
