An Exceptional ‘Add On’ Franchise Opportunity
AmSpirit Business Connections is a business-to-business opportunity where franchisees build a paying membership of entrepreneurs, sales representatives, and professionals who participate together in a structured meeting that facilitates the exchange of high-quality business referrals.
What’s unique and exceptional about this opportunity is that it is designed so a franchisee can add this onto current business, career or profession (and thus do not have to work the opportunity full time).
In fact, all our franchisees do something else. For a couple hours in the morning, a few days a week, our franchisees work the AmSpirit Business Connections program. The remainder of the week they are attorneys, accountants, financial advisors, insurance agents, realtors and other professionals … along with successful coaches and consultants of various kinds.
