As franchise brands scale, franchisee feedback becomes crucial to keeping a system of owners happy and profitable. One proven way to establish a reliable means of consistent two-way communication with your franchisees, SMB Franchise Advisors President and CEO Steve Beagelman wrote in an article for Forbes, is to establish a Franchise Advisory Council.
