The Entrepreneurs’ Source® (TES) has been recognized as one of the top 500 franchises in Entrepreneur Magazine’s Franchise 500®, the world’s first and most comprehensive franchise ranking. Landing at an impressive #158 (up over 50 points from last year) and earning the #1 spot in its category, these placements reinforce its position as the leading business coaching and consulting franchise on the list for the fourth consecutive year.

 

A Prestigious Achievement

 

For 46 years, the Franchise 500® has served as a trusted and invaluable resource for aspiring franchisees. Jason Feifer, editor-in-chief of Entrepreneur Magazine remarks, “The Franchise 500 is more than a list. It’s really a collection of life-changing opportunities, featuring strong and resilient brands that future franchisees will be proud to be a part of. This year’s honorees represent the bold ideas, operational excellence, and adaptability that makes franchising a cornerstone of entrepreneurial success.”

 

TES earned its spot by excelling in areas such as unit growth, financial strength and stability, and brand power. In fact, TES scored in the top 15% of all franchises for support, the top 20% for size and growth, as well as for brand strength. These factors are a testament to TES’s exceptional performance and enduring appeal as a franchise opportunity.

 

A Proven Path to Success

 

Founded in 1984, TES has pioneered the concept of Career Ownership Coaching®. This unique approach focuses on delivering education, awareness, and discovery experiences to empower individuals seeking to achieve their Income, Lifestyle, Wealth, and Equity goals. Over the past four decades, TES has helped tens of thousands of individuals transition from corporate careers to business ownership, fostering a path to self-sufficiency and entrepreneurial success.

 

Marissa Frois, CEO of TES, reflects on the company’s growth and relevance, “Once again, the job environment and economic climate have led to another surge in individuals seeking alternative career paths, making our services even more relevant than ever. This trend positions TES franchisees to meet the increasing demand for career ownership coaching.”

 

Record-Breaking Growth

 

TES’s success is evident in its remarkable growth trajectory. In 2024 alone, TES welcomed 65 new franchise business owners – a record number for the company. This growth brings the total number of TES franchisees to 242 across the U.S. and Canada, representing a nearly 70% increase over the last three years. As entrepreneurship continues to flourish, with the U.S. Department of Treasuring reporting an average of 430,000 new businesses applications per month in 2024, TES is perfectly positioned to support this wave of entrepreneurial ambition.

 

The Franchise 500 ® Methodology

 

Entrepreneur’s Franchise 500® is a rigorous and comprehensive ranking that evaluates over 150 data points across categories such as costs and fees, size and growth, support, brand strength, and financial strength and stability. This holistic approach ensures that potential franchisees have access to the most accurate and relevant information when choosing a franchise opportunity.  The 500 franchises with the highest cumulative scores earn their place on this prestigious list, making it both a competitive measure for franchisors and a vital research tool for aspiring entrepreneurs.

 

A Culture of Camaraderie and Support

 

At the heart of TES’s success is its commitment to fostering a supportive and collaborative environment for franchisees. From day one, franchise owners gain access to a proven system, comprehensive training, and ongoing support. This includes proactive marketing and client generation tools, as well as customized microsites and fully automated social media solutions. Looking to the future, TES is also investing in AI-driven initiatives to further enhance efficiencies for its franchisees.

 

“Beyond business, franchise business owners can immerse themselves in a culture of camaraderie,” says Frois, “Engage, learn, and grow within a network of supportive franchisees. Here, success is a collective achievement, backed by the wisdom and experience of a vibrant community.”

 

Looking Ahead

 

The recognition from Entrepreneur’s Franchise 500® is more than an accolade; it’s a validation of TES’s mission to inspire and empower individuals to take control of their futures. As TES continues to climb the rankings and expand its network, it remains a beacon of guidance, mentorship, and opportunity for those ready to embark on the journey of business ownership.
