What's Next in Franchising — Weekly Signals

The executive brief of the What's Next in Franchising podcast, hosted by Leighton Healey, CEO of KnowHow.

The franchise industry moves fast; most leaders find out what changed after it already hit their network. Weekly Signals is the brief that keeps you ahead of it.

Three signals, two minutes, once a week.

The most important news, stories, and perspectives in service franchise labor, technology, and operations—distilled into three clear, actionable reads. What happened, why it matters for your network, and what sharp operators are already doing about it.
