I recently sat down with the team at What Franchise to talk about where our industry is headed this year.

It’s a privilege to be included in their "26 Bold Predictions for 2026" feature. My core takeaway? The "old way" of doing things is officially retired.

This year is all about Generative Engine Optimization and lean, automated operations. It’s no longer just a "nice to have"—it’s the engine for growth.

Three weeks ago, I shared a snapshot of an appliance repair franchise in Central London. Today, the 3-month data is in, and the trend is undeniable.

Central London is arguably the most competitive local SEO landscape in the UK. 

Yet, through consistent optimization, we haven't just hit the #1 spot- we’ve dominated it.

The Stats:
👉🏽 Avg Rank: Improved from 11.13 to 3.13.
👉🏽 High Zone Visibility: Up from 15% to 74%.
👉🏽 Real-world Impact: The owner reports they were "busier than ever" this December.

This is what happens when you stop "burning cash" and start investing in local dominance. 

At Franchise Fame we don’t do fluff; we deliver bookings and sales calls.

Franchisors & Franchisees: If you’re ready for measurable growth in 2026, let’s talk.

2025 was a year of massive growth and even bigger challenges. But looking at 2026, the stakes for franchise marketing have never been higher.

We are entering an era where AI in franchising isn't just a "bonus"- it’s going to be the factor that makes or breaks a brand.

If you’re a franchisor tired of burning cash on low-converting ads and you’re ready to scale your network the smart way, let’s talk. Drop me a message to book a free strategy session, and let's stay ahead of the curve together.
