About

Janice Durant

Hi, I’m Janice. I help people trade corporate chaos for clarity, confidence, and a business they can actually love waking up to.

My passion? Helping professionals leave the corporate grind and step into franchise ownership that gives them control of their professional destiny, builds long-term wealth, and creates healthier life-work balance (yes… in that order!).

I work with people who are ready for “something more”, more meaning, more freedom, more impact, and more joy in what they do every day.

And franchising is an incredible path to that “more.”

Why? Because franchise locations are locally owned and operated, which means you become a valued part of your community, creating jobs, supporting local causes, helping other families, and contributing to the local economy in a very real way.

Plus, franchisors don’t just hand you a brand and wish you luck.
They provide robust training and ongoing support for you and your team from sales and marketing to operations and technician training.  You’re never building alone.

People are often surprised by how many industries exist in franchising.
Sure, there’s the always-popular home services sector—electrical, plumbing, HVAC, handyman, cleaning, restoration, and more. But that’s just one slice of the pie.

There are also thriving franchise opportunities in:

• Pet care
 (grooming, dog training, pet resorts… all the fun stuff!)

• Children’s enrichment & youth sports
 (STEM, tutoring, gymnastics, camps, performance arts)

• Senior care
 (in-home support, placement services, mobility solutions)

• Restaurants & food concepts
 (from fast-casual to specialty treats)

• Real estate & property services
 (property management, inspections, rentals, staging)

• Business consulting & B2B services
 (sales training, marketing, staffing, coaching, and more)

At the end of the day, my role is simple:
I guide you through the journey of finding the right franchise, a business that matches your strengths, goals, lifestyle, and vision for the future.
Because work should support your life… not consume it.

If you’re dreaming about what’s next, I can help you build it—one smart, supported step at a time.
