How to Buy Into a Winning Franchise Business with Joel Stewart

Episode: 121

Joel Stewart

Join your hosts David Pere and Alex Felice as they sit down and talk about their guest, Joel Stewart’s inspiring milestone towards his business in franchise consulting; a venture in his life that no matter how different from his background – he considers his passion and success. 

 

Joel is an MBA and is the CEO of the International Franchise Marketplace (IFM) and of newly, The Veteran Franchise Initiative, which he had just started this summer. Joel is an acknowledged lead in franchising and connecting investors with veterans who are planning to get into business and entrepreneurship.

 

In this episode, Joel opens the experience with severe illness during military service and a seated moment that he considers as a turning point in his life. He shares how pursuing a master’s degree, discovering new fields, and entering entrepreneurship geared him to break down the barriers of disability – no matter how grueling.

 

About Joel Stewart:

 

Joel Stewart founded the International Franchise Marketplace in 2019 to provide franchise education and marketing throughout the Middle East and Southeast Asia. This is accomplished through American Chamber of Commerce and Embassy coordinated events and conferences.

 

After several successful international events, Joel decided to roll his operation in the United States, Integrity Commercial, under the International Franchise Marketplace as well. Now IFM is creating value for franchise focused businesses, investors, and entrepreneurs around the world through free consultations and value-added referrals.

My name is David Pere, I am an active duty Marine, and have realized that service members and the working class use the phrase "I don't get paid enough" entirely too often. The reality is that most often our financial situation is self-inflicted. After having success with real estate investing, I started From Military to Millionaire to teach personal finance and real estate investing to service members and the working class. As a result, I have helped many of my readers increase their savings gap, and increase their chances of achieving financial freedom! - Click here to SUBSCRIBE: https://bit.ly/2Q3EvfE to the channel for more awesome videos!
