What is a good way to support multi-unit franchisees?
A practical way to support multi-unit franchisees is to group their units under one owner record, give them consolidated dashboards of sales, scorecards, and actions, allow shared teams and transfers between their units, and assign dedicated support.
In Jestor, owners, units, and indicators are connected, so multi-unit franchisees manage their portfolio with clarity.
Why do multi-unit franchisees need different support?
Owners with several units manage managers, not daily operations. They need consolidated information.
When data arrives unit by unit, they cannot compare units or act quickly, and franchisor support is fragmented.
What problems does multi-unit support solve?
- No consolidated view
- Fragmented support
- Hard comparison between own units
- Staff sharing without records
- Owners overloaded with reports

Multi-unit owners' managers can receive access to their own unit, while the owner sees the whole portfolio. Their experience also helps the franchisor improve processes for the network.
Periodic portfolio meetings with these owners also help the franchisor understand their challenges and plan support that fits their scale, such as manager training or shared services.
This is how you support multi-unit franchisees and help them grow with the brand.
