The Franchise King

I'm The Franchise King®, Joel Libava.
Overview
It's important for you to know who you're dealing with. So here goes.

To begin with, I was born in Cleveland, Ohio, On June 30, 19…

I'm kidding. I'm not going to do that.

On the contrary, I'm going to tell you the important things you need to know about me, the business stuff. The things that will help you determine if you feel it's worth it to spend some of your valuable time on my website, and maybe even invest some money to work with me, or to purchase one of my products in the future.

Work-Life
My work background includes:

Food and beverage management, including a stint as a Maitre'D for a Las Vegas hotel-casino showroom.
Sales/sales management for several automobile franchises
Radio personality
Along with several other jobs in various industries.

Education
I need to point out that I have very little formal education.

Specifically, I "tried" college. (For 9 months)

As a result, most of my education has involved learning from subject-matter experts in the field of writing, marketing, PR, and of course, franchising.

Author
In 2011, an editor from Wiley Publishing contacted me. She told me that the market was overdue for a book on how to buy a franchise, and asked me if I'd be interested in writing it. I said "yes."

Now, I'd be remiss if I didn't tell you that her offer of paying me an "advance" had something a lot to do with my extremely rapid, and very positive response to her email inquiry.

All in all, my book has done pretty well. Thousands of people have read it. (Or have listened to it, because there's an audio version, too.)

In addition to my hardcover book, I've had the honor to write hundreds informational articles on franchising for dozens and dozens of highly-trafficked, and respected websites. A few of them include:

• The New York Times.com
• CNBC.com
• Entrepreneur.com
• The Huffington Post
• Fortune.com

And currently, I write a monthly article for The U.S. Small Business Administration's blog (I've been doing so for the past 7 years).

Services We Offer
In essence, I'm a franchise advisor. I teach people who are interested in potentially becoming franchise owners-exactly how to do so, successfully. For instance…

• I offer GUARANTEED Private 1-on-1 franchise consultations
• I offer products that show people how to find, choose, research, and buy a profitable franchise
• I provide educational content-which I share with my readers-and throughout all the major social media channels

The first two items provide the majority of my income.

I also make money from advertising, freelance writing, "Sponsored Posts," and affiliate sales.
