Greenwood Village, CO, September 2025 – Franchise Business Review has named Crestcom as one of just 75 award-winning franchises in its 2025 report on the Most Profitable Franchises. Franchise Business Review identified this year’s most profitable franchise opportunities based on feedback from thousands of franchise owners.
Crestcom International is a leadership development franchise with a mission to develop effective and equitable leaders around the world. Crestcom franchise owners have developed over 1 million managers in more than 60 countries, partnered with over 30,000 client organizations, and made a lasting impact on many lives – both personally and professionally. This critical work enables Crestcom’s franchise owners to make a meaningful impact in their communities while also building a profitable and scalable business.
Franchise Business Review is a franchise market research firm that performs independent surveys of franchisee satisfaction. To identify the award-winning companies on this year’s Most Profitable Franchises list, Franchise Business Review analyzed data from nearly 35,000 franchise owners representing 365 brands regarding their overall satisfaction with their brand and their likelihood to recommend it to others. Other factors include the annual income of franchise owners and the minimum startup capital requirement.
“Profitability, franchisee satisfaction, and long-term return on investment are the most critical factors to evaluate before investing in any franchise,” said Eric Stites, founder and CEO of Franchise Business Review. The brands featured on our Most Profitable Franchises list not only demonstrate stronger income potential, but also rank highest in satisfaction according to the franchise owners themselves.”
Crestcom’s franchisees were surveyed on 33 benchmark questions regarding their experience and satisfaction with critical areas of their franchise system, including training & support, operations, franchisor-franchisee relations, and the overall financial opportunity.
Crestcom’s President and CFO, Julie Draguns, accepted the award, stating, “Crestcom is committed to working hard to earn the trust of our franchisees. Our impressive network of franchisees makes a profit while making a real difference, and we are thrilled to be recognized by Franchise Business Review.”
