• When is the right time to outsource back-office operations
• The partner vs. vendor approach from outsourcing service providers
• Common issues franchisees and franchises face with financial operations

Linda Ballesteros is the owner of Mpower Franchise Consulting where she works with those who want to be in business for themselves but not by themselves with the franchise that best fits their skills, passion and what they want their lifestyle to look like. She is also very aware of those industries which are more recession resistant.
