Reason for Selling
This franchise sale is driven by the owner's desire to simplify professional commitments after more than 20 years with TAB. While the owner will remain active in the business as a Contract Facilitator with a specialized focus on the StratPro system, they are seeking the right successor to build upon the strong relationships, systems, and reputation they have established.
Why I Love My Franchise

Other reasons to love TAB include: • Strong sense of community within the franchise network • Ability to support owners through both growth and transition phases • Intellectual and emotional fulfillment from coaching, mentoring, and facilitation work • Flexibility in how the business is structured and operated • Consistent engagement in strategic, high-level business thinking
