About

Before McDonald’s

I worked for a FTSE100 company in security.

My connection with McDonald’s

The brand is and has always been current. The food’s changed with the times, their long-term vision and analytics is amazing. It’s a vibrant company massive on inclusivity - no matter what level you join and where you’re from, you feel welcome from the outset.

What inspired me to become a McDonald’s Franchisee

I’d peaked in my career and couldn’t see where I was going to get the next buzz, so taking the plunge was the step I needed for my own professional pride. When I heard about the Franchisee days, I headed to the airport so that I wouldn’t miss out! I’m not a marketing expert, so having this huge brand behind me – and the support network – really won me over.

Top insight

My process took two years, but don’t be discouraged by the time – it makes sure you’re doing the right thing. It’s a huge investment so do your own research, and talk to as many existing Franchisees as possible before you step into it.

My growth

I took back control of my life when I became a Franchisee. Getting the thumbs up to run my first franchise was my proudest moment.
