Dear Frannie: Franchise Growth, Leadership and Scaling Advice

This week on Dear Frannie, we're joined by Marina O’Rourke, Fractional CTO of T-Source, and Chris Peterson, Fractional CTO, of The Restaurant Assistants.

We kicked off this episode with our hot takes.

Then we answer a Dear Frannie question from a franchise company: "What considerations should we keep in mind to ensure our technology can scale with future growth? How can we build a tech stack that supports both current and future business needs with limited resources?"

What is Dear Frannie: Franchise Growth, Leadership and Scaling Advice?

Dear Frannie is the franchise advice column you didn't know you needed. Hosted by Katherine LeBlanc, Fractional CMO, and James Vitrano, Franchise Operator, each episode tackles one real question franchisors are quietly wrestling with - from franchisee adoption and growth friction to leadership blind spots and operational scale.

No panels. No keynote speak. No fluff. Just two people who've been inside franchise systems answering the questions brand leaders are afraid to ask out loud.

If you're a franchisor navigating the messy middle of scale - this show was made for you.
