Who Is BrandONE
A passionate group with an absurd amount of collective talent.
BrandONE is the premier franchise development consultancy in America. We partner with franchisors to sustainably grow enterprise value. Founded by industry leaders Kurt Landwehr, Michael Mudd, Dave Schaeffers, Jason Barclay and Peter Barkman, the BrandONE team has over 200+ years collective experience in growing the Nation’s top brands. We are known for our diverse experience across business verticals as well as our collective experience in all operational divisions within organizations.
While BrandONE’s primary focus and area of expertise is in franchise development we do far more than just franchise sales and candidate recruitment.
We help franchisors achieve their growth objectives with a customized solution. Growing a franchised brand is complex and multi-layered. Ensuring that the infrastructure, brand value and franchisee base are all poised for expansion is a key driver to successful, sustainable growth. Strengths and improvement opportunities vary from brand to brand. As a result, we work with clients to define and focus their goals and customize the strategy and execution to align with those goals and objectives. Our work is about supporting our brand partners in connecting the dots through their entire franchise system to ensure long term success and enterprise value.
