Financial services franchise to provide expert content for franchisee social network

Franchise Business Review, the premier market research firm for the franchise industry, announced today that Padgett Business Services, which offers financial services to small businesses, has become a business partner and content expert for Frantopia, FBR’s social networking and business resources site.

Frantopia is the only social network of its kind, exclusively dedicated to bringing tools, services, and best practices to franchisees. By signing up to be a part of the free Frantopia network, franchisees can connect with other franchise operators, learn from industry experts, and grow their businesses. Through Frantopia’s business centers, business partners provide critical best-practice strategies and expert know-how in the form of articles, webinars, FAQs, and on-demand expert advice—all updated regularly and provided at no charge to the Frantopia community.

Padgett Business Services offers financial expertise, including tax preparation, payroll services, and financial planning advice, through a global network of franchisees.
“Perhaps nothing is as overwhelming to a small business owner as tax preparation and filing, especially as we come up on tax season,” said Michelle Rowan, president of Franchise Business Review. “The Frantopia community will greatly benefit from Padgett’s knowledge and resources in this area.”

Frantopia also provides expert information (through business partners) in the areas of Business Coaching, Payroll, Profitability, Printing, Marketing, and Public Relations, with more content areas to come. Franchise operators can join the Frantopia community at www.frantopia.com.
