You’ve Led Companies. Now It’s Time to Own One.
For executives who’ve outgrown the corporate ladder and are ready to build something that’s truly theirs.
"Your skills have brought you this far—
now, let’s take them to the next level."
You’ve done the hard things.
You’ve scaled teams, led transformations, hit the numbers, and sat in the room where decisions are made. But maybe you’re realizing that the next job, the next title, or the next board seat isn’t what you're really after.
Maybe what you're after is ownership. Autonomy. Meaning.
At Executives in Transition...
We work with high-performing leaders who aren’t looking to retire but who are done playing someone else’s game.
We help you explore a path that many overlook: franchise ownership not as a fallback, but as a powerful strategic platform.
This isn’t about food courts or fast-casual trends. It’s about businesses with structure, brands with proven systems, and models where your leadership isn't just needed, it's the difference-maker.
You’re Not Starting Over.
You’re Starting Smart.
Franchise ownership allows you to:
Leverage your experience instead of learning everything the hard way
Build equity in a real business with infrastructure and market demand already in place
Take control of your time, your wealth, and your future
Not for Everyone.
Possibly Perfect for You.
This is a curated process, not a pitch.
We’re selective about who we work with because fit matters.
Our role is to guide you through the possibilities, vet the right opportunities, and help you transition into ownership with clarity and confidence.
If you're exploring what’s next, and you’re not interested in just "another role"...
Let’s talk.
No pressure. No sales script. Just a conversation about what ownership could really mean for you.
What Others Are Saying
Samir M.
"He didn’t just offer options—he offered clarity. Rich helped me narrow down 18 franchise opportunities to a final decision by asking the right questions, explaining the process clearly, and providing valuable insights at every step. His structured approach made it easy to move forward with confidence."
Joanne C.
"I really leaned on Rich and he could not have been more supportive. He never pressured me into a sale just to get it done. And, I always felt like he had my best interest as priority. Thank you, Rich, for changing my life. I could not recommend Rich more highly!"
Ryan E.
"His guidance was crucial in helping us identify and ultimately secure a franchise that not only aligns perfectly with our core values but is also in a sector we are passionate about. Rich expertly coached us through the initial interactions and evaluation stages. We truly feel we wouldn't have reached this successful outcome without his dedicated support and expertise."
Dan O.
"What really makes Rich different is that he approaches his work with a fundamental kindness and decency that is hard to find anywhere, much less in business. I am extremely grateful for my time with Rich, and I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking to make a meaningful life change."
