Regional Developer Brings Entrepreneurial Opportunities and Investments to North Carolina Aspiring Business Owners

November 4, 2009

CHARLOTTE, N.C., Nov. 4 /PRNewswire/ --Despite a slowing national economy, North Carolina, now the 10th largest state, is consistently ranked among the top five places to do business in the U.S. With job creation and economic development as a main emphasis of the state government, regional developer Kale Gaston is also positively impacting the economy and bringing career opportunities to aspiring business owners in North Carolina.

Gaston, the North Carolina regional developer for FranchisEsource Brands International's four business coaching brands, will be awarding franchises to selected individuals who have a passion for helping aspiring and established entrepreneurs, who see business coaching as a career, and are willing to invest in long-term self sufficiency.

"Despite the recession, the franchise business coaching industry is experiencing explosive growth and is breaking revenue records every day. Business coaching can be very profitable, offers a home-office lifestyle and is incredibly rewarding," Gaston said.

"North Carolina has more than 173,000 small business employers and prides itself on being a state that promotes small business innovation," Gaston added. "It's important to the economic health of the state to keep the small business market performing well. As business coaches, we can do just that," he said.

Investment opportunities with Gaston's business coaching national franchise brands include:

AdviCoach - business coaches supporting the small to mid-sized business market helping business owners increase performance and improve profitability.

Business Partner Marketing Coach - marketing coaches supporting companies of all sizes with proven marketing strategies and a full suite of creative marketing and coaching services.

Expense Reduction Consulting, ERC - business coaches offering sophisticated cost reduction and control processes to all businesses generating significant savings for clients across many industries.

Decor&You - two investment opportunities; an executive multi-unit model with business owners functioning as CEOs managing professional interior decorators; or individual decorating units targeting specific territories.

According to the International Coaching Federation, the business coaching industry is a booming multi-billion dollar market and growing at an annual rate of 40 percent nationally.

"As companies hire less and outsource more, it presents opportunities in the business coaching services sector," said Gaston. "This increased demand for business consulting has created an opportunity for the corporate-trained individual to use their business experience in an entrepreneurial venture like business coaching," he added.
