Gregory's journey from a seasoned micro-electric circuit engineer to the CEO and founder of a thriving franchise empire is nothing short of inspiring. In his two compelling books, Real Freedom: Why Franchises Are Worth Considering and How They Can Be Used For Building Wealth and Expert Resilience: How Entrepreneurs Are Leading the Future in Mind, Mastery, and Meaning. Gregory shares the central theme of his life's work: the transformative power of franchising. Drawing on his vast experience as a restaurant manager, engineer, and franchise owner, Gregory offers a roadmap to financial freedom through the strategic investment in franchises. Gregory's early days as a restaurant manager marked the genesis of his expertise as a turnaround specialist for distressed businesses. His key insight? Success hinges on how employees are treated. This foundational principle became the cornerstone of his approach to business and franchise ownership – listen to your team, address their concerns, and treat them with respect. This simple yet powerful philosophy laid the groundwork for Gregory's success in various ventures, from dry cleaners to storage units. As the CEO and founder of Franchise Maven, Gregory has been a guiding force for hundreds of individuals and business owners, helping them navigate the complex world of franchising. His track record speaks volumes – 260 people empowered to open 500 franchise territories under his guidance.

The desire to own his own business led him to explore franchise opportunities, and with his firsthand experience, Gregory is uniquely equipped to guide others. Having faced the pitfalls of ignoring critical criteria, Gregory candidly shares his own missteps. A business-to-business sales and service franchise, contrary to his preference for a home-based business, taught him valuable lessons.

    Nov 4 2024
    Peter Murphy Lewis is a fractional CMO, typically brought in when a CEO has an abundance of data and metrics from marketing but struggles to see the path to converting that into revenue or growth. This issue is prevalent across various industries, including travel, software, media, and even zoos and banks, which are more similar than one might expect. Why did he name his consultancy “Strategic Pete”?

In addition to his marketing expertise, Peter is the host of two TV shows. The first show, which has completed three seasons, was filmed across South America. The second show, set to launch in this month, was filmed in ten cities across the USA. Peter is also the producer and host of a documentary focusing on the long-term care space, which just premiered and called “People Worth Caring About.” Listen to this informative Sharkpreneur episode with Peter Murphy Lewis about navigating the jungle of digital marketing. Here are some of the beneficial topics covered on this week’s show: - How marketing should focus on strategic storytelling that positions CEOs and executives at the forefront of their brand. - Why marketing should be led by strategic, actionable insights instead of only focusing on data. - How a company can increase its value through marketing strategies such as podcasts and partnerships. - Why it’s critical to use proper digital tracking and integrate your marketing tools to optimize performance and reduce waste. - How starting employees as interns allows them to nurture critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
