Irving is an outstanding professional, consultant and advisor. I engaged with Irving as I transitioned out of the military after a 15 year career. Together we researched my market and found the best business opportunities to pursue based of my interests, capabilities, and goals. Once we identified the winning business opportunity, he made sure there was a warm hand-off to the company. I've recommended him to several co-workers that are transitioning out of the military since then.

Irving was just what I needed. He talked me through the ins and outs of franchising patiently, informatively, and confidently. He won my wife over with facts and examples and excellent info and helped us select the business that has become "our baby"! Trust him to help you find your way in franchising. AND if he thinks it may not be the best time or industry for you, he'll tell you that with compassion as well.

The transition from a corporate job to working for myself was a bit scary. Working it through with Irving was so comforting knowing he made the move successfully himself. I have him to thank for coaching me through taking control of my life, my time and my financial future.

I knew I wanted a second stream of income and wasn't sure of my options. Irving introduced several franchises designed for semi-absentee ownership. He gave me the inside track on several great businesses and helped me find the perfect fit with an amazing business I never imaged owning.

Irving somehow found me on LinkedIn at a time when I was doing a bit of soul searching regarding a career change after almost 30 years in HR / Oil & Gas. He introduced me to the franchise world and was instrumental in helping me better understand the nuances and generally break my perception that all franchise opportunities were in fast food! He's very knowledgeable and extremely helpful answering questions about starting a new business / career. Through this relationship I purchased my first franchise and feel comfortable that I made a great choice. Irving is a pleasure to work with and I look forward to keeping in touch as my new business grows!
