Who We Are

The FranWise® service was extremely valuable to our company.  O’Connell’sr expertise in franchising, especially in creating manuals and a top-notch training program helped us immensely.  Mary Ann is a wonderful person besides, not to mention an absolute delight to work with.”

“FranWise® was a delight to work with and helped us tremendously in accomplishing our goal of presenting a professional, well thought out operations manual to our Franchisees.”

“O’Connell & Company and FranWise® has provided professional consultations to us on many occasions over the past few years, and most recently, revised and rewrote our Operations Manual, which is now a comprehensive and professional masterpiece. It has always been a great pleasure working with Mary Ann and the company on various projects.  Their knowledge of franchising is based on years of experience in a variety of capacities.  They willingly share their experience and resources and have an extremely high (and rare) degree of integrity! We value O’Connell’s expertise and happily recommend her and FranWise® as a franchising expert.”

 Money Miler, LLC hired [FranWise®] to write a comprehensive Client Services Manual that would successfully integrate our culture and that of a new entity we acquired while serving as a training tool.  We also asked that this large task be completed in just six weeks.

Mary Ann jumped into the project with enthusiasm, … traveled to our remote locations and with our California staff as well as spending a considerable time reviewing a large volume of documents describing policies and procedures.  She analyzed and then synthesized all of this material and developed for us a unified, comprehensive Client Services Manual that exceeded our expectations.  …She delivered an outstanding, professional manual.  I heartily recommend [FranWise®] for your consulting services.

Mary Ann and the group at Franwise® were essential to bringing our Manuals up to the standards needed to expand our business nationally and internationally.  They delivered on-time and were committed to understanding our business by taking the time to involve all stakeholders.  They asked the right questions and went the extra mile by working with our Franchisees in-the-field to put together clear, concise, user friendly manuals.  I wish all our suppliers took the time to understand our business the way Mary Ann did.
 
I’d recommend Franwise® to any company that already has manuals in place or needs them built right, the first time.

Mary Ann:
 
There’s no way our session; “Creating a Climate of Balance in Your Work and Home Life” at our recent convention could have been so successful without you!  I sat in the back of the room in complete awe. Your natural ability to keep things moving was impeccable – there was never a dull moment! You asked the right questions and provide insight on a range of scenarios.
 
Our franchisees enjoyed you and so did I.
Thank you again,
