SAT, SEPTEMBER 26TH

2:45PM - 3:15PM

Within a few years, AI will be table stakes in franchising: every brand will run, more or less, the same automated back office. So where’s the edge? It collapses back onto what franchising has always been: the local relationship, the team, and the community. This session reframes the question from “how do I automate?” to “what do I do with the time automation gives back?” You’ll leave with a simple filter to apply Monday morning.
