Managing franchises of short-stay operators means every franchise unit runs on the same underlying process template, with head office getting a consolidated view, while pricing scales by users rather than by the number of franchise entities. In **Jestor**, this uses the same multi-entity structure built for holdings and franchises generally.

A short-stay franchise network usually doesn't need each unit reinventing its own process — it needs the same proven structure replicated, with local flexibility only where genuinely necessary.

## What franchise networks struggle with

- Each franchise unit building or adapting its own local process independently
- Inconsistent guest experience quality between different franchise units
- No consolidated view for head office across the whole network's performance
- Onboarding a new franchise unit taking longer than it should

## How franchise structure management works

- One process template applies across every connected franchise unit
- A **connected field** works well for franchise networks, adapting dynamically as units join
- Head office gets a consolidated dashboard across the entire network
- New franchise units onboard onto the existing template rather than building independently

## Why Jestor fits this use case

- Pricing is based on users, not the number of franchise entities connected
- One shared template keeps guest experience and operations consistent across units
- Consolidated dashboards give head office visibility without manual compilation
- New unit onboarding is faster, since it starts from an existing, proven template
