The thing I really liked about the Exit Factor program—it was simple and straightforward. Any business owner I speak to, if you say, ‘Can you dedicate one to two hours a week to help improve your business?’ I get enthusiastic agreement.

FAQs

Get the Answers You Need

What types of businesses are part of the Gold Path Consulting division?
Gold Path Consulting includes two franchise concepts: Transworld Business Advisors and Exit Factor. Transworld focuses on business brokerage, helping people buy and sell small to mid-sized businesses. Exit Factor provides business consulting services to help entrepreneurs increase their business value and prepare for a successful exit or future growth.
Do I need experience in business brokerage or consulting to own one of these franchises?
No prior experience is required. Franchisees come from a wide range of professional backgrounds. Both Transworld and Exit Factor provide training, systems, and ongoing support to ensure you can launch and grow a successful business, regardless of your past experience in the industry.
What kind of investment is required to open a Gold Path Consulting franchise?
The initial investment depends on the brand and location but is generally lower than brick-and-mortar franchises since these businesses typically operate from a professional office or home-based environment. Costs include the franchise fee, initial marketing, and working capital. A detailed breakdown is available in the Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD).
What types of services will I be providing as a franchisee?
As a franchisee with Transworld, you’ll be helping clients sell their businesses, buy new ones, or explore franchise opportunities. With Exit Factor, you’ll be guiding business owners through growth planning, value improvement, and exit preparation strategies. In both cases, you’ll be delivering high-value, relationship-driven services to business clients.
What kind of support do franchise owners receive?
Franchisees with Transworld and Exit Factor receive comprehensive training, marketing support, and access to a national network of experts in business brokerage and consulting. Whether you’re managing a pipeline of listings or advising business owners, you’ll have systems and guidance to operate with confidence and credibility.
