Lynne Shelton

I have been in the franchise industry for almost 30 years, first as a Franchisor, then as a Franchise Attorney and recently I added as a Franchisee to my history. I speak to hundreds of franchise prospects as a guest speaker at International, National and Regional franchise conventions on How to Franchise Your Business, How to Buy a Franchise, Married Couples as Business Partners - The Pros and Cons, and How to Keep Your Franchisees Happy after Year Four.

Additionally, I am a certified Franchise Executive which is a 3 Year certification advanced degree that tests all aspects of a franchise business from the financials and break-even analysis to the marketing and distribution. I am also an author on "How to Buy a Franchise with your Retirement Funds", which is a collaboration with author Daniel Cordoba of "From Wall Street to Main Street".
