Exit Factor

We’re seeking a master licensee to lead Exit Factor’s expansion across Europe. This exclusive opportunity grants you the right to recruit, train, and support franchisees throughout European markets. You’ll build a network of Exit Factor consultants serving European business owners—many of whom are aging and approaching succession decisions without clear strategy. Communication within the organization is conducted in English; local client work operates in European where needed.

Europe encompasses some of the world’s most entrepreneurial economies, with millions of SMEs across major business hubs from Amsterdam to Berlin, London to Paris. European business owners are sophisticated, well-educated, and accustomed to working with professional advisors. Many are now at the succession phase. Demand for expert guidance on valuation and exit planning is strong and growing.

About Exit Factor

Exit Factor is part of United Franchise Group’s Business Consulting Division. UFG operates 1,600+ franchise locations across 60+ countries with 35+ years of experience building successful franchise systems. The business consulting and advisory sector in Europe is well-developed. European entrepreneurs and business owners actively seek expertise in growth, valuation, and strategic planning. Exit Factor addresses a critical market need.

Exit Factor delivers strategic exit planning, business valuation, value enhancement strategies, and succession planning. Our track record is proven: clients see 25% profit increase, 56.7% value increase in the first year, and 100% success rate for those who proceed to sell. The franchise was recognized in Entrepreneur Magazine’s 2025 Top New & Emerging Franchises.

The Master License opportunity

As master licensee, you own exclusive rights to Exit Factor throughout Europe. You recruit franchisees, provide comprehensive training and ongoing support, manage quality standards, and build the network. Your revenue comes from franchise fees, ongoing royalties on franchisee revenue, and support services. You scale without handling every client yourself—franchisees do the consulting work.

Your focus is recruitment, training, compliance, and network management. As the network grows and mature franchisees develop strong practices, your revenue compounds. This model works across European markets because business owners are willing to invest in professional networks and proven systems.

The European opportunity

Europe presents an excellent opportunity for Exit Factor. The continent has a strong culture of entrepreneurship, business formality, and professional consulting. European business owners are comfortable working with advisors and are proactive about planning. Many SME owners are now in their 50s and 60s, facing succession and exit decisions.

The European business advisory market is established and respected. Business owners expect professional guidance. Exit Factor’s model—combining business valuation, value enhancement, and exit planning—aligns with how European advisors and consultants work. Franchisees will find a receptive market of business owners seeking expert help with their biggest business questions.
