Dennis Daughety - Franchise Consultant
Alabama
Dennis is a veteran in the franchise development and ownership space. He got his start in 2002 at Choice Hotels International where he sold brands such as Comfort Inn, Sleep Inn, Econo Lodge and Rodeway. From there he moved to the development department of Driven Brands selling Maaco franchises. While at a franchise broker conference in 2014, he was introduced to the salon suites concept and signed up as a franchisee with Phenix Salon Suites. They saw his value as a seasoned director of franchise sales and hired him on later that year. During his tenure with Phenix Salon Suites, he opened 4 locations which he currently operates in his pare time. Dennis also owns a publishing company, has owned a health insurance and a scheduling app company and is always looking for the next opportunity.
Dennis is the happy husband of a beautiful wife that he doesn't deserve and two incredible kids that he can't believe are his. He is active at his church and is currently working with their church planting organization, the Association of Related Churches.
As a franchise partner at Phenix Salon Suites, Dennis has seen over 100 salon professionals make the transition from salon employee to salon owner and has loved being a witness to and a small part of that transformation. This is what excites him most about franchise consulting - figuring out what a candidate is passionate about and matching them with franchise models that fit their interests, their means and their lifestyle.
