ION Franchising offers a comprehensive service package, including a complimentary consultation, franchise development solutions, funding options and consulting services, as well as services for franchisors.&nbsp;<h2>The History of ION Franchising&nbsp;</h2>ION Franchising, which is based out of Las Vegas, Nevada, was founded by seasoned franchising expert&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/lanceeyeonfranchising/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=meet-the-supplier-lance-graulich-of-ion-franchising-2724406" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Lance Graulich</a>, who has more than 30 years of experience in the franchise space and hosts the successful podcast “<a href="https://eyeonfranchising.com/podcast?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=meet-the-supplier-lance-graulich-of-ion-franchising-2724406" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Eye On Franchising</a>.”&nbsp;Graulich started out in a family business on Wall Street after receiving an economics degree. He then joined a TGI Friday's franchise in Phoenix, Arizona as an executive and soon became vital to the rapid growth of the organization. Throughout his multi-state franchisee career, he has owned a Wingstop and Krispy Kreme Doughnuts.&nbsp;Also, he has created several of his own brands, including the donut brand Pinkbox. Additionally, he served as president of various franchise advisory councils and boards, where he was responsible for advising emerging franchise brands.&nbsp;<h2>How ION Franchising Stands Out&nbsp;</h2>ION Franchising boasts that it has “extensive knowledge and resources about the franchise industry,” which allows the firm to provide its clients with an inside look at hundreds of different franchise opportunities. Additionally, the organization’s comprehensive service package saves clients time by assisting with the initial legwork required in identifying solid opportunities that meet their criteria.&nbsp;As previously mentioned, ION Franchising provides free franchise consulting services to assist entrepreneurs in making the best decision when it comes to buying into a franchise opportunity. ION Franchising also assists independent business owners by providing guidance in researching and planning to franchise their own businesses.&nbsp;“Our primary goal is to help you navigate through the entire process and build a business for you and your family,” the firm wrote on their site.&nbsp;<h2>Why Choose ION Franchising?&nbsp;</h2>As of December 2023, ION Franchising works with nearly 800 of today’s top franchise opportunities from dozens of different industries. In an interview with 1851 Franchise,&nbsp;<a href="https://lancegraulich.com/links?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=meet-the-supplier-lance-graulich-of-ion-franchising-2724406" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Graulich</a> emphasized that he is always an advocate for his clients. As such, he will be upfront and transparent about their options and will try to get them the best options based on their interests and goals.&nbsp;“I’m your advocate, I’m going to insulate you from the nonsense,” said Graulich. “I’m looking to get the best brands in front of my clients so they have the best options.”&nbsp;The firm describes its approach to consulting as “very simple and straightforward.” ION Franchising’s consultants conduct an interview to gain insights into its client’s previous experiences, goals, strengths, weaknesses, investment range and target market, then work to select the most ideal franchises.&nbsp;Graulich also noted that, with his prior experience as a franchisee, he is open to helping his clients even after they’ve already invested in a business.&nbsp;“I’m happy to share,” he said. “I don’t care what industry you’re in. I’m there anytime my clients have questions.”&nbsp;<h2>Consultants You Can Trust</h2>With its network of consultants, extensive resources and expert leadership under Lance Graulich, ION Franchising has made a name for itself as a reliable and trustworthy full-service franchise consulting firm for entrepreneurs seeking their next business opportunity.
