FBR INSIDER INSIGHTS GIVING BACK David Miller SPHERION, FORT MYERS, LAKELAND, LEESBURG, NAPLES, OCALA, AND SARASOTA, FLORIDA David Miller has achieved undeniable success as a multi-unit franchisee. But his passion and work ethic are not limited to his professional endeavors. “Business ownership gives you a platform to give back, and you can do it in various ways. You can give back to your employees, job candidates, clients, and organizations within the community.” In 2022 Hurricane Ian devastated Southeastern Florida. Becoming an integral part of the relief effort, David donated $25,000 out of his pocket, organized a community food drive, and packed 500 bagged lunches for hurricane relief workers. During the pandemic, he organized a back-to-school supply drive that gave away nearly 200 backpacks to elementary schoolchildren, and he’s an annual participant in Spherion’s own Community Giveback campaign, contributing over $7,000. For more information on the Spherion franchise opportunity, visit spherion.com/franchise, email danbrunell@spherion.com, or call 951-587-6864. Rachel Sherman TSS PHOTOGRAPHY, FORT LAUDERDALE, FLORIDA Rachel Sherman is not only the top-performing female business owner but also the top-performing franchisee in the entire TSS network, with sales more than double that of the next closest competitor. Having already accomplished her lifelong dream of owning a photography business, she’s now set her sights on empowering the next generation of entrepreneurial females. “The biggest thing in business ownership is that you need a support network, whether it’s your family, friends, or the franchise. With TSS Photography, you have comprehensive training and ongoing support from the brand—with as much or as little help as you want—plus the close-knit network of other franchisees in the system. There is always an opportunity to grow. We do school pictures, youth sports, professional headshots, and special events. I love it all!” For more information on TSS Photography franchise opportunity, visit tssfranchisebusiness.com, email James.Calabrese@candid.com, or call 800-336-4550 ext. 114. WOMEN MILLENNIAL Drew Nicholoff ZIEBART INTERNATIONAL, LANSING, MI Drew Nicholoff spent 10 years working as an accessory installer for Ziebart before purchasing his location in 2020, during the pandemic. He kept the doors open and the business thriving, and the shop has set sales records—weekly, monthly, quarterly, and annually. Drew and his wife, Meredith, are also members of the brand’s operations and marketing committees. “It’s exciting to see the innovation and corporate development at Ziebart as they find new and exciting products to introduce to the public and new ways of interacting with the customers. Whatever the future holds, we’re here for it.” “It might surprise some people about Millennial business owners—the people who don’t understand our work ethic—that we’re not afraid to take chances at such a young age and work our butts off to succeed! I’m still on the clock many nights and weekends, working on jobs to get them done for our customers.” For more information on the Ziebart franchise opportunity, visit ziebart.com, email customerservice@ ziebart.com, or call 248-588-4100. 16 | For more information on the companies in this report, visit www.FranchiseBusinessReview.com
FBR INSIDER INSIGHTS FEATURED FRANCHISEE — An FBR Franchisee Rock Star! — ANDREW SLEMP Christian Brothers Automotive Murfreesboro, Tennessee Franchise owner since 2021 14 Employees www.caringfranchise.com/FBR A third-generation mechanic and secondgeneration franchise owner, Andrew Slemp personifies what it means to own a Christian Brothers Automotive franchise. “Not only do they provide excellent support and coaching, but also a solid family and faith-based environment.” In conjunction with his local church, Andrew initiated a nonprofit organization called Mechanics on a Mission—a program that matches those in need with critically needed auto repairs—all at no charge. They also host a series of classes in partnership with the Youth in Christ organization to provide basic car care and maintenance classes for teen mothers. Andrew and his team also find vehicles that can be fixed up and donated. In 2022, they donated five cars. This year, they’re on track to donate seven more. “Ten years ago, we donated a car to a young lady getting out of a bad situation. A few months ago, she came back in and donated a car for us to give to someone else. Another time we gifted a car to a single mother whose own car was in rough shape. She gave us her car to salvage, and we were able to fix it up and give it to a man who was just getting out of prison (after 40 years). He had begun mentoring troubled youth but had no way to get to the meetings for his organization. Today, he continues to lead youth in the Nashville community.” “The most rewarding aspect of owning my business is being able to help our youth prepare to lead the future as they find their own paths in life.” For more information on the Christian Brothers Automotive franchise opportunity: • Visit: christianbrothersfranchise.com • Email: brad.fink@cbac.com • Call: 281-675-6214 For more information on the companies in this report, visit www.FranchiseBusinessReview.com | 17
