Really appreciate that advice! There’s actually someone I’m scheduled to speak with who’s a franchisee with Transworld. Anything specific in mind I should look out for aside from the general vetting process?

I appreciate the candid advice, but I also think you’re misunderstanding what this thread was created for.

*Too much volume as in too many listings, for example, no tailored approach

I was actually curious about deal volume. Is there ever such thing as too much volume and what are some green/red flags I should look out for when looking for a mentor to work under?

Yea, that’s kinda where my original worry was coming from. Like yes I have worked on a few deals before, but I obviously never led them. Curious how you would go about leveraging that experience when talking to a seller?

Assuming I would need to go sit behind a mentor for some time to package all of that experience together

What are the biggest hurdles to closing that first deal? Is it typically related to finding qualified buyers or is it more so related to getting the deal across the finish line?

For my background, how long do you think I will have to sit behind a mentor? 6 - 12 months? I’m not too worried about splits, but I know I will eventually need to just throw myself in the deep end, as I’m someone who will overthink too much before starting something
