ABOUT OUR WRITERS

Beth Ewen, editor-in-chief, has 25 years under her belt as a business journalist, including 15 years as a business owner, which makes her understand particularly well the entrepreneurs she loves to cover. Beth is the creative force behind many new Franchise Times projects, such as Dealmakers and Fast and Serious, and she’s always happiest dreaming up something new to dazzle readers or to motivate her talented editorial team.

Tom Kaiser, senior editor, is a curious reporter who is well known in the franchise community for his engaging interviews and well-crafted articles. A people person, Tom enjoys working a trade show floor for contacts or hitting the phones for just the right CEO quote. His new column, The Urbane Franchisor, is a fresh look at trends in real estate and retail, found only in Franchise Times.

Readers trust our team of journalistic pros, who can take a hard story yet tell it with ease.

Nicholas Upton, restaurants editor, dives deep into the restaurant business for both Franchise Times and our sister publication, the Restaurant Finance Monitor. He knows his way around an SEC filing, a franchise disclosure document and a bankruptcy case, too, and shares his news and analysis on our award-winning blogs. An accomplished photographer, Nick’s pictures regularly appear in the pages of Franchise Times.

Laura Michaels is managing editor of FT and our sister publication, Foodservice News, and has developed an inside track to the top chefs on the local restaurant scene and all the people who make the business work. She contributes regularly to Franchise Times as well, and edits the blogs across all of our publications to make our copy sing. Laura is a bit of a daredevil, recently adding hot-air-ballooning and sky-diving to her list of firsts.

Mary Jo Larson edited the first issue of Franchise Times, 20 years ago, and now sits at the helm as publisher. With one of the best networks in the franchising business, she forms deep relationships with clients who have become friends, and gains the trust of fascinating people who will share their stories. Watch her in action at our annual conferences, where she is a popular and tireless emcee.

THE FRANCHISE HANDBOOK

New in January! Join the definitive book on all things franchising.In 2018, Franchise Times acquired The Franchise Handbook, a well-respected, 30-year-old one-stop industry resource. Franchise Times, the leading news and information source in franchising, will re-launch the publication in January of 2019.

The Franchise Handbook is a combination:

• Vendor directory, a listing of all the service providers that focus on the franchise sector;

• Finance and real estate directory, a listing of those banks, finance companies and real estate firms which provide growth capital and development services to franchise companies;

• Book of franchise opportunities, those franchises that are in a growth mode, and want to tell Franchise Times readers just why their franchise is the right one.

It also will be filled with information that will ensure franchise operators keep it as a handy desk reference, from a calender of events to industry stats with which to benchmark their own operation. It will answer such questions as which franchises post the highest average unit volumes by industry, how unit growth rates compare over the past five years, where to find crucial litigation and financial information in franchise disclosure documents, and much more.

Franchisors, vendors, banks, real estate firms and suppliers can get in front of The Franchise Handbook readers by submitting a directory listing for their business.

Other options include:

• sponsored content

• white papers

• sponsorships

• display ads, and more!
