Schooley Mitchell
Overview
Schooley Mitchell is North America’s largest independent cost reduction consulting franchise, helping businesses lower expenses on telecommunications, merchant services, shipping, waste, fuel, and more. Founded in 1997 and franchising since 2004, the company has built a strong reputation for objective, supplier-independent consulting. The business model is designed to provide risk-free cost savings to clients, operating on a contingency-based fee structure where fees are only collected if savings are achieved.
Franchise owners operate a B2B consulting business, working with companies to analyze expenses and identify cost-saving opportunities. With a home-based model and low overhead, franchisees focus on client acquisition and relationship management while Schooley Mitchell’s extensive research and data team provides ongoing analysis and recommendations. The recurring revenue model allows for residual income from long-term client contracts, ensuring financial stability and business scalability.
This franchise is ideal for professionals with backgrounds in sales, consulting, or business management who are comfortable networking and presenting solutions to decision-makers. Successful owners are customer-focused, results-driven, and skilled at building long-term business relationships.
