Turn Your Business Into a Thriving Franchise
A Relationship-First Approach to Scaling Your Brand
Expanding your business doesn’t have to feel overwhelming. At Big Sky, we believe franchising should be a win-win—for you, for your future franchisees, and for the communities you’ll serve.
Instead of pushing a one-size-fits-all process, we start by getting to know your business, your vision, and your goals. From there, we guide you step by step through feasibility, planning, operations, and marketing—always at a pace that feels right for you.
We’re not just here to help you launch a franchise—we’re here to build a lasting partnership that gives you confidence, clarity, and growth without the stress.

Marketing That Builds Relationships and Drives Growth
Selling franchises isn’t just about numbers—it’s about connecting with the right people who believe in your brand. At Big Sky, we create marketing that feels authentic, builds trust, and helps future franchisees see themselves as part of your story.
Here’s what we bring to the table:
Lead Generation & Qualification
We help you attract and qualify the right prospects so you spend time talking to serious candidates instead of chasing the wrong leads. Our process ensures your pipeline is filled with franchise partners who are a genuine fit for your brand.

Our automated email sequences and digital campaigns keep leads nurtured, informed, and engaged at every step of their decision-making journey — helping you build stronger relationships that convert into franchise sales.
Content Creation, Ghostwriting & Promotional Videos
From articles and ghostwritten pieces to promotional videos, we craft content that tells your story authentically and inspires action. These tools help you build credibility and connect with future franchisees in meaningful ways.
Franchise Sales Training Workshop
We deliver practical sales training that equips your team to connect with franchise prospects, ask the right questions, and build trust — moving away from high-pressure tactics toward a relationship-based approach that closes more deals.
With this approach, you won’t just “get more leads”—you’ll start building long-term relationships that naturally grow into successful franchise partnerships.

TESTIMONIALS
TRUSTED BY BUSINESS OWNERS READY TO SCALE
"Having no experience in the franchising world whatsoever, we needed a partner that could educate us and hold our hand through the entire process. We found Big Sky to be communicative experts in the field. Their resources, we found, were by far the best in the industry. We looked at bigger shops, larger companies that could help us. They didn't have the personality. They didn't have the breadth of knowledge. As a small emerging brand, we needed a partner, not just a big label corporate entity."
Chris Baker
School Communications Agency
"It can be overwhelming to know the steps that we have to go through [to franchise]. With Big Sky Franchise Team... I didn't know what to expect completely going into it because this is new to us. It exceeded my expectations because there was a complete outline from start to finish of the franchising process."
