A guide who keeps it real
Hi, I'm Chris Whipple, The Franchise Navigator.
I spent years in the corporate world leading teams and building businesses, then made the shift into entrepreneurship. I know what it feels like to want "more" while still needing stability and a responsible plan.
My approach is simple: clarity, honesty, and long-term thinking so you can explore business ownership in a way that fits your life (not the other way around).
No pressure. Just a practical path forward.
