EP 164 Part 1: How to Build a Franchise Empire with Jim Penman Reveals

What does it really take to build a franchise empire that lasts decades, not just a business that burns bright and burns out? In this episode of The ToolShed Podcast, I sit down with Jim Penman, founder of Jim's Group, the largest franchise network in the Southern Hemisphere with more than 5,500 franchisees across 50+ service divisions. In Part 1 of this conversation, we unpack the foundations that allowed Jim to scale a simple service business into a household name, without sacrificing relationships, values, or long-term thinking.
