Description
Reports To: Director of Franchise Operations
Travel: Up to 30%
Role Type: Full-time, Exempt

Role Identity
The Franchise Business Coach is the primary trusted advisor to an assigned group of Archadeck franchisees. The FBC exists to help franchisees build profitable businesses aligned with their personal and professional vision, while advancing adoption of the Archadeck system across the network. This is a coaching role. Compliance and financial outcomes are consequences of effective coaching, not substitutes for it. The FBC succeeds when franchisees choose to follow their coach because they trust them and see measurable results in their business.
How Success Is Measured
Accountability is structured across three layers, reflecting the reality that franchisees are independent business owners and outcomes are a shared result.
Influence. Quality of coaching relationships, franchisee trust, and perceived helpfulness, assessed through direct feedback and periodic network input.
Activity and Adoption. Coaching cadence completion, documented franchisee vision plans, field visit completion, and franchisee adoption rates of brand programs including the Archadeck sales process, marketing initiatives, and operational standards.
Outcome. Same store sales growth, profitability trends, and franchisee retention across the assigned group, evaluated in aggregate rather than per franchisee.
