Client Testimonials
I had the pleasure of working with Jumpstart Franchise Services on a franchise manual for an omni-channel retail company diving into its first franchise opportunity. Craig and Garrett were both prompt and communicative throughout this process. They shared a wealth of information and knowledge with us regarding some practices and helped us to create a working manual in preparation for our first franchise locations. I appreciate their expertise and hard work that they put into the development of this manual. I would recommend their services to anyone looking into franchise manual creation.
James Paolino – Dover Saddlery
It’s been wonderful working with you and I really appreciate your generosity with The Lime Truck franchise training program.
Jeff Sweetman – COO, The Lime Truck
Having been involved in a ton of franchised, boot-strapped start-ups, I can attest that Operations Manuals are an enormous investment of time, energy and resources in any company. JumpStart Manuals are a great way to build a professional Operations Manual affordably and quickly by following these time-tested principles.
Michael Haith – Founder, Franchise Sherpas
As for functionality, I think it has a lot of good features and would highly recommend new franchisors utilize it out of the gates as a base camp for communication and repository of information. It’s a great product especially for the cost. For the basics of providing a central location for system wide documents and files, a great online solution for the ops manual, and providing a platform for communications across the system, I think it works great.
Jason Paulo – Founder, MonkeyBizness
We loved the template you gave us… it saved us a ton of time.....
Eddie Gray – President, Cranium Academy
Craig graciously offered to help me develop a guidebook for the field trips I do. The content, aesthetics, and professionalism of the final product exceeded my expectations and the students were also thrilled by it. Craig was able to translate complex ideas in a readable manner complimenting my YouTube channel.

I’ve known Craig and his work for at least 20 years (probably more) since our time at Quiznos. After 20 something years inhouse, I returned to private practice in 2008. All of our firm’s clients are franchisors and private equity groups that buy/sell franchise systems. Our clients range from start-up franchise systems to mature systems - the former is almost always looking for someone to help create their manuals, and many more mature systems are looking for someone to help revise and refine their manuals. I’m frequently asked for a recommendation, and Jumpstart is my go-to for help. They’re knowledgeable, intuitive, responsive, efficient, and cost-effective. As someone who worries when I make a referral, I never worry when I recommend Jumpstart Franchise Services.
