FSBI's Empire Building Program's Momentum Climbs to New Heights in 4th Quarter
 as Commitment and Opportunities Continue to Grow

Southbury, CT -. FranchisEsource Brands International (FSBI) Empire Building Program is recording explosive growth since its initial offering in October of 2009.  With Regional Developer investment into FSBI brands increasing, committing to grow an additional 385 units, for a total of 1730 units, the  new Regional Developer expansion program, in support of its synergistic business coaching brands and Empire building brands, is expected to move into 2010 with another record breaking year. 
    

“The Empire Building program’s widespread popularity along with the market demand for business coaching makes this an ideal time to invest in regional development,” said Brian Miller, COO and President of FSBI.  “With the business coaching industry growing at an annual rate of 40 percent nationally, becoming a Regional Developer can be a highly profitable career move,” he added.
    

The FSBI business coaching and Empire building brands include The Entrepreneur’s Source, AdviCoach, Business Partner Marketing Coach, Expense Reduction Consulting and Decor & You.      

Regional Developers of FSBI’s five premier brands not only benefit from a great investment opportunity, but also lead a team of business coaches offering career opportunities for those aspiring business owners who have a passion for helping aspiring and established entrepreneurs; who see business coaching as a career; and who are willing to invest in long-term wealth and equity and while building short term income and lifestyle.
    

“I expanded my business from a single brand to multi-brand regional development territory to take advantage of the synergies that exist within the additional FSBI brands,” said Kale Gaston, FSBI Regional Developer in North Carolina. “Multi-brand regional development is the best way to build out the territory faster and to allow for more business between the synergistic brands at the single-unit franchisee level that are all servicing the same or similar clients,” he added.  
    

“A Regional Developer within the FSBI system will have the advantage of sharing the franchise fee and on-going royalties while building a team of business coaches partnering with the small business community,” says Miller.  The International Coaching Federation estimates that by 2010, approximately 2.8 million small U.S. businesses will be using coaches, compared to 1.4 million in 2006.
