About Blue Maven
At Blue Maven, we’re redefining how brands grow. Real, lasting scalability doesn’t come from improving one department at a time—it comes from aligning every part of the organization around a shared vision and measurable goals. As the in-house recruitment team for select franchise brands, we do more than attract and award the right-fit owners. We partner with leadership to strengthen the foundation of the entire system—so growth is intentional, sustainable, and in sync. By working exclusively with organizations that run on the EOS® Operating System, every initiative we drive is tied to clear vision, focused priorities, and a culture of accountability. Together, we build franchise organizations that scale with purpose and clarity.
As the Franchise Sales Manager, you will take on a consultative role, focused on building and nurturing trusted relationships with franchise consultants and prospective candidates. Your primary responsibilities include educating franchisee candidates, guiding them through the discovery process, handling objections, and awarding franchises that align with the brand’s core values and mission, ensuring a strong cultural fit. In close collaboration with the SVP of Franchise Expansion, you will contribute to the overall expansion and success of your assigned brand’s franchise system. Success in this role requires excellent communication skills, the ability to connect with individuals from diverse backgrounds, and the capacity to effectively present each brand’s value proposition and financials. You’ll guide candidates through various stages of evaluation, assessing their background, skill set, characteristics, and business ownership goals to ensure alignment with each franchise persona—driving growth while preserving the long-term longevity of the brand.
