McAllister Brings With Him Over Two Decades of
Experience in Franchising.
OMAHA,
Neb., June 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Blingle!,
the premier outdoor lighting franchise, announced today the hiring
of Michael McAllister as Group
President. A franchising industry veteran, McAllister will also
join the Heroes Lawn Care as part of his new role.
"We are very thrilled to have Michael join the HorsePower Brands
team, bringing with him his franchising expertise," said
Josh Skolnick, Founder of HorsePower
Brands. "He has a proven track record of helping scale franchises
that benefit both the franchisees and franchisor, and we have no
doubt that he will help take Blingle! and Heroes Lawn Care to the
next level."
After earning his graduate degree from University of Alabama at Birmingham, McAllister
began his professional career at a commercial construction firm
where he was the director of tech and training. In 2005, after a
call from a friend, he was introduced to the idea and success that
comes with franchising. Following his entrepreneurial spirit, he
became a multi-unit franchisee with Fitness Together in Charlotte
before he went from franchisee to franchisor.
His career took him to Denver
when he joined the WellBiz team where he provided operational
support to the franchisees and development to grow the brand.
McAllister has also worked for HealthSource and Sanford Medical,
two health and wellness franchisors. Most recently, he served as
the Vice President of Operations for LINE-X. In that role, he
oversaw over 500 locations across the
United States and Canada.
"I am very excited to join the HorsePower Brands family," said
McAllister. "Blingle! is an emerging brand, and it is very unique
within the space. Being put in this position, with such a young
company, allows me to help put an imprint on the franchisees from
the start to help grow and scale both brands."
As Group President, McAllister will assist the franchisees by
providing them with resources and support as they look to grow. He
will look to lead and develop the team to build and optimize the
current processes, ultimately putting the brands in the best
position possible. When it comes to franchisees, it is his
responsibility to help them become profitable. His long-term goal
is to have 100-plus units for Blingle! and Heroes Lawn Care.
"Franchising is about relationships and connections," added
McAllister. "This role is about supporting and connecting with the
franchisees, which I enjoy tremendously. I am excited to see each
franchisee succeed with the systems we put in place."
