17 Apr Acquiring Minds: How to Build a Portfolio of 20 Franchise Locations | Michael Horowitz Interview
Today’s interview is the story of how a complete outsider to a popular franchise system, an outsider with no operational chops, gets a foot in the door and builds from there. Popular franchises don’t let just anyone in; you have to sell yourself. Michael explains how he did so to acquire his first Wingstops — 7 of them — and then how he built & acquired 13 more. We also talk about what it’s like operating almost 2 dozen fast food restaurants (no surprise: labor is brutal). This interview is a great story AND tutorial on building a portfolio of franchise locations.
