Two-sided pipelines
Investor sourcing and brand sourcing as distinct desks, not one list with a type column.
For franchise consultants
Consulting franchise deals means holding two sides at once: brands looking for franchisees, investors looking for a brand. The value is in the match, and the match is exactly what generic CRMs cannot model.
You keep two pipelines and a mental index of which investor might suit which brand. When a colleague asks why you matched those two, the reasoning is in your head.
Match explain
Investor ↔ brandThe chain, your way through it
Take the mandate
Brand-side and investor-side leads are separate flows on the same spine, each with its own pipeline, scope and desk — because sourcing a brand and sourcing an investor are not the same job.
Match, and show why
Investment profiles score against brand requirements on capital, geography, category and timeline, and the score explains itself. A match you can defend is a match you can bill for.
Deliver the engagement
Engagements carry the scope you sold, the work against it and the people doing it — attached to the deal rather than filed beside it.
Bill it
Fee schedules per engagement with GST on the invoice and TDS 194H or 194J tracked as a credit ledger, so what you invoiced and what you banked reconcile.
Operate for the client
With a granted seat you can enter a brand’s own workspace and run their franchise programme inside it — every action dual-attributed in the audit trail: who acted, and on whose behalf.

Banded scores with the criteria that produced them — reviewable, teachable, defensible.
Work inside the client’s workspace with dual attribution, instead of handing over a spreadsheet.

Consultants are priced per seat with no per-brand fee — you can carry as many brand and investor mandates as you can service.
Prices are quoted to the shape of your network rather than published, and exclude GST. Ask for pricing and we will send the numbers.
