ENGAGEMENT 03 · FRANCHISE FACILITY SERVICES

Four things we did. One running total.

~$17M REVENUE · 45+ EMPLOYEES · FRANCHISE FACILITY SERVICES + TERRITORY-BASED OPS · CLIENT SINCE 2023

An owner blind to which jobs paid, given the visibility to chase growth aggressively without running out of cash. The tally at the top of your screen starts at zero. Every entry below posts to it as you read.

THE WORK, IN ORDER

What we actually did.

IMPACT 01WEEKS 4–10

The owner could finally see which jobs paid.

Job-level chart of accounts plus department reporting replaced a single blended P&L.

blind trying to grow the business→job- and department-level visibility
▲ +$260KPROFIT / YR
IMPACT 02WEEKS 8–16

Forecasting turned into a growth lever.

Better budgeting and cash-flow forecasting let the owner get aggressive in client acquisition with confidence.

didn't know where to start→chased the contracts worth chasing
▲ +$240KPROFIT / YR
IMPACT 03WEEKS 12–20

Growth didn't drain the bank account.

When an adjacent franchise territory opened up, the systems already in place kept the business cash-stable while scaling into it.

growth eats cash→expanded and stayed cash-stable
▲ +$150KCASH (ONE-TIME)
IMPACT 04ONGOING

And there's a trained controller running it now.

SOPs written and a new incoming controller trained, so the systems outlive the engagement.

systems that only worked with us in the room→an internal team that owns it

TOTAL IMPACT · 4 ENTRIES · PROFIT, CASH, AND COMPOUNDING WINS

Some of it recurs every year. Some of it landed once and changed what the bank and the balance sheet look like. All of it came from the same place: a connected system, and someone senior running it.
