[{"id": "dahtohf", "text": "I'm a little confused as to whether you're asking about the franchisee or the franchisor.  You might have better luck reaching out to the local franchisee rather than the brand company (franchisor).  And that information you could probably get from your secretary of states website, or businessmen in the know in your area.", "replies": [{"id": "daixq04", "text": "The franchisor will have real estate people that get emails and cold calls like this all the time, and they know every franchisee that is looking for more sites.

I'm not saying don't do it, I'm saying he might have luck directly calling the franchisee, if there are major ones in his area.", "replies": [], "depth": 3}], "depth": 2}], "depth": 1}, {"id": "dahvifm", "text": "You haven't disclosed the company which makes it hard for us to provide guidance. Depending on their size, they may have some kind of real estate team. Just find their contact information and call or send them an e-mail. If nothing else, just call them and ask who you need to speak with.\n\nDo you have a tenant/landlord rep working with you? They would be more well-versed in this process. Yeah, they cost $ but they also save you headaches like this.\n\nFull disclosure: I'm a Tenant rep and getting in contact with real estate decision makers is what I do every day.", "replies": [], "depth": 1}, {"id": "dam38kt", "text": "Reaching out to the franchisor will only help you if they have an active franchisee with a territory purchased in your market. Its not bad to reach out, as a franchisor I appreciate LLs that reach out to me, it means a deal could get struck faster.", "replies": [], "depth": 1}]
