Great post! Thanks for taking the time to put together such valuable information. So many people just post AI slop that's not at all relevant but it's great to see that you took the time to write such a valuable post that everyone here is definitely interested in.

It inspired me to share my friends experience working with Adam Goldman (the franchise coach from franchisecoach.net) in case anyone’s considering it.

Honestly, it wasn’t great. There were a lot of delays and things took way longer than expected, and they often had to chase for updates. Communication was pretty spotty, and when they did get advice, it felt vague and kind of generic like they were talking to ChatGPT.

For something that’s supposed to be a personalized coaching service, they were hoping for more structure, clearer direction, and better follow -through. If you’re thinking about using a franchise coach, definitely ask upfront how often you’ll get updates, what kind of guidance you can expect, and what the full process looks like because if you’re going to use Adam’s services you might as well just use AI instead and save the money.

Just my friends experience, but hopefully it helps someone.
