At Franchise Speakers, our mission is to help franchisors create a fabulous experience for their franchisees. We listen actively and respond quickly with carefully selected speaker/ trainer/ emcee/ entertainer options based on desired learning objectives. And through the process, we make sure that the presenter options offered for review will connect with the culture of the system and the feeling, tone, and energy of the event.
Franchise Speakers was launched in 2008, when founder, Katrina Mitchell, a successful franchisee herself, saw the need for a franchise industry speakers bureau that would help franchisors find the perfect speakers, trainers, facilitators, emcees and entertainers to authentically connect with their franchisees.
In either scenario, there is no fee to the franchisor for Franchise Speakers’ services as the speakers pay a commission when placed. Franchise Speakers seamlessly becomes part of the convention planning team and takes all the stress and worry out of the myriad details involved in working with outside talent.
Franchise Speakers helps us find the perfect speakers every year for our Faegre Drinker Franchise Summit. The Franchise Speakers Team takes the time to really understand our attendees and makes their recommendations based on the event culture and our learning objectives. Franchise Speakers consistently knocks it out of the park for us. Every year I say, “Katrina, how are you going to beat this next year!?” Overall an outstanding experience.If you are a franchisor looking for franchise-savvy outside talent to support your franchisees, Franchise Speakers should be your first call.

We had a great experience working with Franchise Speakers and will be utilizing their great service for future events!
