(UnhappyFranchisee.Com) It seems that every franchisee horror story related to Phoenix Franchise Brands starts with a franchise “consultant” (broker) that’s a member of the IFPG (International Franchise Professionals Group).
Part of Princeton Equity Group, the IFPG claims it is driven by “Virtue & Integrity.”
Founder IFPG founder Don Daszkowski writes:
For us, reputation is everything.
By self-regulating, we ensure ours is pristine.
In a letter to state franchise regulators, Mr. Don Daszkowski boasts of the IFPG’s Code of Ethics and its Ethics Committee.
IFPG Parties While Their “Clients” Lose Their Savings, Retirement Funds, Homes, Marriages & Health.
IFPG brokers call themselves consultants & refer to the hot leads they deliver to franchisors & FSOs (like Rhino7) as their “clients.”
IFPG “clients” claim the representations told to and by brokers about a “Semi-Absentee Investor Franchise” option is false:

IFPG client-franchisees contend that the information Greg Longe, CEO of Phoenix Franchise Brands, provides to brokers contains misleading, undisclosed and potentially illegal earnings claims:

IFPG “clients” have provided more than 40 firsthand accounts of lost retirement savings, marriages breaking under the financial pressure, & families trying to save their homes from foreclosure:

We’ll help IFPG self-regulate with issues we intend to share with NASAA.
For starters, why is the IFPG STILL promoting the franchises that have allegedly destroyed dozens of their “clients’s” hopes, dreams & finances?
