About the Role

FIT House of Brands is seeking a strategic, revenue-generating Senior Franchise Sales Executive to lead end-to-end sales initiatives and position our brand as the investment opportunity of choice for high-net-worth operators. This role owns multi-unit development from lead generation through signed agreements and studio openings, bridging strategy and execution.

Responsibilities

  • Own the entire franchise sales cycle end-to-end, from lead generation through signed franchise agreement and successful handover to our Network Onboarding team.
  • Qualify and progress high-investment, multi-unit development opportunities with financially sophisticated buyers.
  • Build and maintain a robust, self-sourced pipeline that complements inbound marketing leads.
  • Leverage and continually expand an existing network of franchise investors, multi-unit operators, family offices, professional athletes, and high-net-worth individuals.
  • Represent the brand at industry events, franchise expos, and investor forums to generate new relationships and channels.
  • Act as a trusted advisor to prospective franchisees throughout their evaluation and decision-making process.
  • Walk prospects through unit economics, investment returns, and multi-unit development models with credibility and precision.
  • Engage confidently and at a peer level with experienced entrepreneurs, investors, and operators.
  • Partner with Finance as needed to validate and present investment models to prospective franchisees.
  • Partner closely with Legal to manage FDD review, disclosure timelines, and agreement execution.
  • Coordinate with Real Estate on site selection and territory availability for multi-unit and high-investment deals.
  • Work with Marketing to shape lead quality and messaging at the senior end of the market, while independently generating opportunities beyond marketing channels.
  • Partner with Network Support and Network Performance teams to ensure a smooth handoff from signing through opening.
  • Work directly with the CRO to shape growth strategy, market execution plans, and target franchisee profiles.
  • Identify and pilot new growth channels (e.g., broker relationships, multi-unit operator groups, family office and private capital partnerships).
  • Act as a senior Brand Ambassador, representing the business.

Requirements

  • 7–10+ years of consultative B2B/B2C sales experience, including a minimum of 3 years in franchise development.
  • Demonstrated success selling high-investment franchise or multi-unit development opportunities.
  • Existing, active network of franchise investors, multi-unit operators, family offices, professional athletes, and/or high-net-worth individuals.
  • Strong financial acumen; able to build and present unit economics and investment return models.
  • Commercially sophisticated; credible with experienced entrepreneurs and investors.
  • Proven ability to generate opportunities independently, rather than relying solely on inbound marketing.
  • Highly self-sufficient and entrepreneurial — a builder, not just a closer.
  • Executive presence with strong presentation and negotiation skills.
  • Resilient and comfortable managing long, complex, high-value sales cycles.
  • Passionate brand ambassador with a genuine connection to fitness and wellness.
  • Experience working cross-functionally with Marketing, Legal, and Real Estate to progress deals from lead through to opening.
  • Familiarity with AI and modern sales technology.
  • Ability to travel regularly, as required.
