Iain has 23 years of franchising experience and has a passion for balancing the franchise model for franchisee, franchisor and all other stakeholders. After completing a Bachelor of Commerce and a successful 14 year career in IT Iain became an Angus & Robertson (A&R) franchisee and quickly expanded to three locations. During 8 years as a franchisee Iain became heavily involved in the A&R franchise group and led the group as President during a time of enormous change in the book industry. This focused his attention on the need to balance profitability of franchisees and the franchisor while navigating multiple challenges.
