Brand Testimonials
Don Varady
CEO of Clean Eatz
A few years ago, my wife Evonne and I visited IFA in Las Vegas. We went there with one purpose in mind and that was to connect with a development partner. We had multiple nightmare experiences with Franchise "salesman" in the past. That was the last thing we wanted to do again. When we sat down with BrandONE at the conference we immediately knew they were different. In a one-hour meeting not one time did they try to "sell" us on their company. We have had an amazing time with these guys for the last few years. We are growing at a rapid pace with qualified candidates. The number thing Evonne and I love the most is their integrity. It's not always about a sale with BrandONE. We consider them family and highly recommend any emerging brand listen to what they have to say and consider a partnership with them.
Alex Blair
CEO of Resto Pros
I may not be new to my industry, but I was certainly new to the franchise world. And that learning curve would have been much more painful had it not been for the expert guidance of BrandONE. Having only one franchisee under my belt at the time of the partnership I really wasn’t sure of what next steps were, BrandONE stepped in and developed a full-blown franchise development process, assisted me with website design and connected me with leading industry experts. They even got me into broker networks that I would have NEVER had the ability to get into before! I can’t wait to watch my brand take off, and there is no one I would rather do it with.
Mike Valente
CEO of Renovation Sells
As a business new to the franchise world we were thrilled that BrandONE even considered taking us on. We quickly realized that they were not only an experienced and top-notch development team, but also invested in us as people. They took the time to learn our business inside and out, then created a sales process that was true to our brand. They are everything they are cracked up to be -- seasoned, skilled, and knowledgeable. We know they have our best interests top-of-mind and are confident knowing they represent us in the market. We think of them as both team members and friends.
Josh Cohen
Founder and CEO of The Junkluggers
The BrandONE team is as good as it gets in franchise development. After fiddling around with different recruitment solutions for years, we finally had the opportunity to work with this all-star team. We grew 400% in less than one year after that, selling out almost the entire country. It has been an unbelievable experience. They operate with diligence, integrity, they are extremely experienced, and results oriented. They are great people, and just so good at what they do, it's a pleasure to watch and work with them. They are not just some outsourced vendor. I have truly considered them an extension of our team. Often, candidates in our recruitment process can’t even differentiate between Junkluggers and BrandONE because the B1 folks really take the time to build relationships within our network and to understand our business. Congratulations if you are lucky enough to have the opportunity to work with BrandONE.
Drew McWilliams
Ivybrook Academy Co-Founder and CEO
What sets BrandONE apart from other franchise development companies is their ability to completely immerse themselves in my brand. They took the time to learn every detail about Ivybrook Academy and what is important to us, ensuring complete alignment. BrandONE is much more than a sales and development company. They have given me valuable feedback and help in every avenue of my business, not just sales, and I view them as a sounding board and/or Board of Directors. I have had the great fortune to connect with them on a professional basis as well as have formed life-long friendships that can never be replaced.
Jason Parker
K9 Pet Resorts Co-Founder and CEO
K9 Resorts was looking for a way to accelerate franchise development and we decided to run a process to find the best in class outsourced franchise development company. After interviewing many companies, there was one company who really stood out – BrandONE. BrandONE was able to understand our business, the high investment level that comes along with opening a high-end dog resort and figured out how to pitch our amazing business to the masses. We needed a firm that was nimble, open to new ideas & could pivot quickly as they reviewed the marketing data in real time. A firm that was not set in their ways and that was open to using many different media channels to find a strategy that worked well for K9 Resorts.
We have worked together with BrandONE for more than three years and they have brought a high caliber prospective franchise owner to the table repeatedly. K9 Resorts is very happy with BrandONE and we look forward to growing together for many more years.
Dan D’Aquisto
LaundroLab Cofounder and CEO
We (LaundroLab), chose to work with BrandONE to take our company to the next level, and we chose them for many reasons. The first is that every conversation we had with someone from the BrandONE team, we knew they were authentic and honest, and clearly the type of people we wanted to work together with long term. On top of them just being good people, they are more than development experts. These partners have seen it across a variety of industries, and they've had success every time. We wanted to work with the best of the best and these guys are that and more. In our early relationship, we've already gotten value outside of growth including legal, organizational, and strategic guidance. Lastly, one of my favorite parts was that the relationship is curated towards the needs of the franchisor and that was hard to find in doing due diligence with franchise development partners. We couldn't be more excited to be working with the BrandONE team to take LaundroLab to the next level!

Don Taylor
Franchise Consultant at FranChoice
I enjoy working with BrandONE because of the time and attention they provide to my candidates. They are professional, courteous, and highly knowledgeable about the brands they represent. One of the biggest reasons I entrust BrandONE is the genuine desire to find the right fit for everyone involved. These are life-changing decisions. BrandONE guides the candidate through an educated buying process instead of trying to sell them something, which is fundamentally different.

Working with BrandONE is a pleasure for two main reasons: the quality of their brands and the quality of their brand representatives. BrandONE focuses on solid brands, with great growth potential, in a variety of industries. That's important to me and to my clients. In addition, their brand reps are industry professionals who provide fantastic communication with both my clients and me--also very important. Quality brands and quality brand reps--an absolutely winning combination!
Craig Wells

After working with FranNet for 26 years as a franchisor and a consultant, it is important to focus attention on the best concepts and the best franchise development specialists.

The company is a dream to work with, all the way through signing franchise agreements.

Katie Fagan

I enjoy working with BrandOne because they are able to vet quality franchise organizations and bring a streamlined system that my clients can easily follow.

I have numerous successful, happy clients that have moved forward with BrandOne brands and will confine to keep them top of mind moving forward.

2) The BrandOne team thoroughly educates my clients on the process they will take them through and the brand they represent.
3) The follow-up I get from the BrandOne team is best in the industry. I always know where my clients stand in their process with detailed notes in a timely manner.
John Tubridy
Franchise Consultant with FranNet
Whenever I have a client that I know will be treated with the utmost professionalism and very topnotch handling I recommend Michael Mudd and the pro's from BrandONE. They are the best at providing the necessary information that my clients need to make an informed decision. They schedule a series of calls so that the client can assess in a very organized and intelligent manner and provide the opportunity to ask the relevant questions to help determine if this is the right fit for them. They never pressure and actually become friends to my clients. They are the standard that all franchises should conduct themselves. I have great confidence that my clients whether they purchase or not, will leave having a good experience and hopefully create a new entrepreneurial chapter in their lives.

Mark Cory
Franchise Consultant with FranNet
I enjoy working with BrandONE because Michael Mudd and Jason Barclay are skilled professionals. They can adapt to varying buyer styles, yet always seem to be able to move prospects through the discovery process in a reasonable (and sometimes speedy) time frame. Equally important, they keep consultants well-informed and take the time to converse with us to strategize on how to best get the prospect to the finish line.

They're not all created equal. Kurt and the team he and his partners have assembled at BrandOne are the best of the best. Their real, down to earth people who don't focus on hype. They get to the brass tax of what makes their brands a worthwhile investment, and I know they provide their clients a level of support that is very difficult for any other group in this industry to rival.

As a franchisee, a franchisor rep, and a consultant over the last 3+ decades, it’s easy for me to recognize the All-Stars in franchise development, but there is only a handful of consistent Hall of Famers in the industry – those who always get it right by the franchisor, by the consultant, and by the candidate – BrandONE lives there.
