Rob Lancit on the Hidden Risk in Franchise Recruiting
In his recent Entrepreneur article, Rob Lancit — franchise veteran and expert — sounds the alarm on a mistake too many recruiters still make: prioritizing fast expansion over quality. At Stratus Building Solutions, we know exactly why that approach fails — and why our proven system works better.
Growing Too Fast? Think Again.
As economic uncertainty drives more people toward franchise opportunities, brands may feel pressured to grow quickly. But rushing the process can backfire. Lancit explains how accepting underqualified candidates can damage your brand, increase churn, and ultimately cost more than you gain. At Stratus, we’ve built guardrails to prevent that kind of regression.
