Something Tammy Romage said on the show last week has been sitting with me.
"AI and global talent is the new infrastructure for scale."
She's talking about her franchise model, but the thing underneath that line is bigger. A lot of the people I talk to are exploring franchise ownership because AI is already reshaping their industry and their current role feels less certain than it did two years ago. That fear is real and I don't think it goes away by ignoring it.
What I've seen, though, is that the people who make the move well don't do it running from something. They do it because they find a model that makes actual use of what they've spent years building, and that clarity changes the whole calculation.
The disruption that's coming for a lot of corporate roles is the same disruption creating demand for what a lot of these franchise models do. Satellite Teams is one example. The executives who own those franchises aren't starting over. They're the ones with the relationships and the credibility to be the guide for businesses that don't know how to access global talent or integrate AI into their workflows.
That's not a guarantee of anything. But it is a real shift in where the leverage is.
If you're at the point where you're seriously weighing whether to make a move and you want to talk it through, I'm happy to get on a call. No agenda, just a conversation.
