Franchise Search

Leveraging his father’s legacy of being the first recruiting firm to franchise their business, Doug learned from the best of the best and used that knowledge to focus on specifically serving the recruiting needs of franchise companies of all sizes, geographies, and sectors, and founded Franchise Search. Franchise Search quickly became an industry game-changer and one of the most sought-after search firms. Known and respected for his keen eye, innovative approach, and ability to identify the select few right-fit candidates from the masses, Doug continually connects franchisors with professionals who elevate their brands and drive their growth. That acumen and success is how Doug built and grew one of the most significant franchise recruitment firms. It also earned him the honor of being named Entrepreneur Magazine’s “Top 40 Under 40” and being featured in esteemed publications like the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Franchise Times, and Franchising World for his insights and contributions to the industry. Early-stage and established global franchise brand executives rely on Doug to secure top-tier talent in leadership, franchise sales and development, operations, marketing, legal, and beyond because they know his placements shape the future of the franchise world and the business world.
