Franchise Growth Advisor for Founders Building Scalable Franchise Systems
Charles Internicola is a co-founder of GoodSpark and a franchise development strategist who works with business owners and emerging franchise brands to build scalable, growth-ready franchise systems.
His work focuses on helping founders franchise the right way with aligned structure, strong brand positioning, and real franchise sales readiness.
Charles helps close what GoodSpark calls the Franchise Growth Gap: where many new franchisors stall after launch due to weak infrastructure, unclear franchise narratives, and underdeveloped growth systems.
Experience in Franchise Development and Franchise System Design
Over the past two decades, Charles has worked alongside founders developing franchise models across service, retail, food, fitness, home services, and specialty concepts. His experience spans franchise architecture, franchise offering design, FDD strategy alignment, and franchise growth planning.
He has supported more than 500 franchise launches and growth-stage systems, helping founders translate proven operating businesses into structured, replicable, and marketable franchise opportunities.
His approach combines franchise structure, positioning strategy, and capital-smart development planning, not just documentation or marketing tactics.
