The Alternative Board

Franchise Overview

This franchise offers a B2B business advisory and leadership development model serving small and mid-sized business owners and CEOs. Franchisees build and facilitate local peer advisory boards where business owners meet regularly to share insights, solve problems, and hold each other accountable. In addition to board facilitation, franchisees provide one-on-one executive coaching, business planning tools, transformational workshops, and management development training.

The model is home-based or office-flexible, allowing franchisees to set their own schedules and select their own clients. Franchisees gain immediate access to proprietary intellectual property, proven methodologies, and a comprehensive suite of products and services.

Support includes extensive initial training, daily telephone support during launch, six months of targeted member recruitment assistance, weekly coaching calls, monthly peer board meetings among franchise owners, and an annual international conference. The system is recognized as the world's largest business advisory franchise network.
