Small Businesses Expand Through Franchising, with Help from Shark Tank's Kevin Harrington and the Harrington Franchise Group
Iconic entrepreneur Kevin Harrington, known for his role as the original "Shark" on ABC's Shark Tank , is helping small business owners nationwide achieve their dreams of expansion through franchising with the public launch of Harrington Franchise Group [http://www.harringtonfranchisegroup.com/]. With an extensive background in franchising, marketing, and business consulting, Harrington and his team are empowering entrepreneurs to scale their operations efficiently and profitably.Kevin Harrington's franchising journey began long before his rise to fame on Shark Tank . Known as the inventor of the infomercial, Harrington is credited with creating the first-ever infomercial. What many people are unaware of is that the first infomercial was actually Franchise America , which aired in 1980. His expertise helped build national franchise brands like Fantastic Sam's and California Closets, solidifying his reputation as an industry leader.
Today, Harrington continues his legacy through Harrington Franchise Group, formed alongside partners Christen Hagan, a seasoned business advisor with over 20 years of experience, and Brian Harrington, Kevin's son and CEO of multiple Harrington companies. Together, they guide businesses through every step of the franchising process - from developing franchise feasibility studies to handling legal filings, financial projections, and operations manuals.
Christen Hagan emphasizes the transformative power of franchising for small business owners: "Virtually every business owner aspires to expand, but opening new locations yourself requires significant startup capital and time. Franchising flips the script - new franchisees invest in a proven business model and assume the responsibility of launching the new location. It's a no-brainer for most entrepreneurs."
Kevin Harrington highlights the financial benefits of franchising, stating, "Business owners are enjoying their income shifting from revenue generated at one or two small locations to franchise fees and royalties from many locations." He adds, "Franchisors end up changing hats from running day-to-day operations to training, guiding, and supporting their franchisees. We work with a lot of family businesses that strive to leave a legacy for the next generation."
Brian Harrington echoes his father's enthusiasm: "Who doesn't love passive income?" he remarks, underlining the financial security and scalability that franchising offers.
Harrington Franchise Group assists businesses in developing comprehensive franchise strategies, offering support with business plans, five-year financial projections, legal registrations, and operational training. The group's hands-on approach has helped hundreds of businesses expand their brands while allowing business owners to focus on long-term growth rather than the operational complexities of new locations.
