In 1996, Jay McCann and Chris Brogdon hatched a new idea for a different restaurant concept: a neighborhood daytime breakfast and lunch featuring traditional house-made favorites, healthy choices, and creative menu options in a comfortable, friendly atmosphere. This tall order was filled when the first J. Christopher’s restaurant opened in Marietta, GA in January 1997. J. Christopher’s has been expanding ever since, with 24 restaurants now in operation, satisfying millions of taste buds every day.
The business of Master Franchising is growing as more and more people find out about the opportunity to own, develop and support a territory through franchising. One of the attractive reasons for owning a Master Franchise is the passive income it can generate through the royalty stream. It is also a very attractive investment for many who want to own their own business, for those who possess management, leadership or consulting experience and for those looking to own a business and to not have to work 50-60 hours a week every week. Master Franchises typically cost from 150K-over 300K. The role of the Master or also called Regional Developer is to grow their territory through franchise sales and to provide support to their franchisees. Waffle Brothers provides training to the Masters on how to do just that. Masters make their money on franchise sales splitting the franchise fee with the franchisor 50/50 and through receiving 2.5% of franchisees gross revenue through royalties as well. A mature royalty stream has shown to produce a very attractive passive income. It is for these facts that Master Franchising is one of the best kept secrets in business today.
