In an exciting recognition of its exceptional franchise culture, Sandler has been named to Franchise Business Review’s prestigious 2024 Culture100 list. This accolade is a testament to the company’s dedication to fostering a supportive and thriving environment for its franchisees.

Franchise Business Review, an independent market research firm, is renowned for its rigorous evaluations based solely on actual franchisee satisfaction and performance. This year’s Culture100 list was compiled from surveys of over 36,000 franchise owners across more than 360 franchise brands. Sandler stood out among its peers, earning top marks in 17 unique areas that are critical to a robust franchise culture, including leadership, core values, franchisee community, and engagement.

Why Sandler Stands Out

At the heart of Sandler’s success is its unwavering commitment to its franchisees. According to the surveys, franchisees highly value the company’s supportive leadership and strong community ethos. This recognition underscores Sandler’s role in creating a positive and collaborative environment where franchisees can thrive.

Michelle Rowan, president & COO of Franchise Business Review, emphasized the importance of culture in franchise success: “Finding the right culture fit is an important part of any franchise investment decision, but it can be difficult to gauge. That’s why we gather data on how current franchisees rate a brand’s culture. It tells you whether franchisees believe the franchisor cares about their success and how well the community of support staff and franchisees work together to achieve their business objectives.”

About Sandler

Sandler is the world’s largest sales effectiveness training organization. Under the direction of Dave Mattson, Sandler’s Executive Chairman, the brand’s core values of company culture being a top priority serves as a guiding principle that originated from David Sandler, the company’s visionary founder.

“Company culture is a top priority of the Sandler leadership team passed down to each department, employee and franchisee. When a company wants to turn things around, rallying around a common culture mission should be a priority and that is what we have done,” states Mattson.

Sandler’s commitment to creating an outstanding franchise experience is further evidenced by recent survey results collected by Franchise Business Review. These results underscore the supportive and positive environment that franchisees enjoy within the Sandler network such as:

• 93% of franchisees feel fellow franchises are supportive of each other.
• 95% of franchisees are likely to recommend Sandler franchise ownership to others.
• 91% of franchisees agree they enjoy being part of the organization.

The Significance of the Culture100 List

The Culture100 list is a vital resource for prospective franchisees, offering insights into the franchise brands that excel in creating supportive and successful environments. Brands on this list are rated significantly higher by their franchisees—between 20% to 50% more—compared to other franchise brands in key cultural areas.

For those considering investing in a franchise, Sandler’s inclusion in the 2024 Culture100 list is a strong indicator of its dedication to franchisee satisfaction and success. This recognition not only enhances the company’s reputation but also reassures potential franchisees of the supportive and thriving community they will be joining.

Why Entrepreneurs Choose Sandler

As Sandler continues to set high standards in franchise culture, its recognition in the 2024 Culture100 list serves as a beacon for those seeking a franchise that values and nurtures its franchisees. This honor is a celebration of the collective efforts of the company’s leadership and its franchisees, all of whom contribute to the vibrant and dynamic culture that defines Sandler.

OWINGS MILLS, MD – October 25, 2023 – Sandler was identified by independent research firm, Franchise Business Review, as being one of just 60 franchise brands to be named an award-winning franchise in its 2023 report on the Top Franchises for Veterans.

Sandler in its 40^th year of franchising is the leading global sales organization responsible for empowering over 50,000 sales professionals and leaders.

Franchise Business Review, a market research firm that performs independent surveys of franchisee satisfaction, provides the only ratings of franchises based solely on actual franchisee satisfaction and performance. Franchise Business Review publishes rankings of the top franchises in its annual Guide to Today’s Top Franchises, as well as guides throughout the year ranking the top franchises in specific sectors.

To identify the companies on this year’s list of the Top Franchises for Veterans, Franchise Business Review analyzed data from nearly 3,000 franchise owners, representing 385 brands regarding their overall satisfaction with their brands and their likelihood to recommend them to others.

“Veterans are a critical part of franchising’s success, and franchising needs more business owners with the leadership skills, resilience, and can-do attitude of veterans,” said Eric Stites, founder & CEO of Franchise Business Review. “Not all franchises are created equal, and the reality is that very few of the thousands of franchise opportunities available today are rated highly by their franchise owners. That’s why we survey thousands of franchisees every year and make those reviews available to prospective business owners. The 80 companies named in this year’s report received the highest ratings from the veterans who own them on our independent satisfaction survey.”

Sandler’s franchisees were surveyed on 33 benchmark questions about their experience and satisfaction regarding critical areas of their franchise systems, including leadership, training & support, operations, franchisor/franchisee relations, and financial opportunity.

Dave Mattson, CEO of Sandler, expressed his gratitude, stating, “We are deeply honored to receive the ‘Top Franchise for Veterans’ award from Franchise Business Review. At Sandler, we have always believed in empowering our veterans, recognizing the unparalleled discipline, leadership, and commitment they bring to the table. This award is a testament to our dedication to providing opportunities for those who have served our nation so valiantly.”
