At Special Strong, every territory you award means more children, adults, and veterans with disabilities get a coach, a plan, and a place to get stronger. You won’t just be closing deals. You’ll be putting owners in communities that have been waiting for someone like them.

That can be you.

We have 35 franchises open, 48 sold, and 90 territories across about 20 states. We’re adding three to six new franchises a month, and we’re headed toward 100 open by 2027. The demand is real. We need a leader who can turn that momentum into a franchise development engine that doesn’t depend on the founder.

As our Franchise Growth Builder, you’ll guide candidates from first conversation to funding and help them decide if this is the right business for them. You’ll also shape how we do it: the process, the pipeline, the reporting, and the people we hire as the team grows.

If your idea of franchise sales is pushing volume to whoever can write a check, this probably isn’t your job. Here, the right fit matters more than the fast close, because every owner we add is trusted with families who depend on them.

What you’ll have the chance to do

•       Build a franchise development function from the ground up, not just inherit someone else’s.
•       Award territories that bring adaptive fitness to communities that don’t have it yet.
•       Use your judgment to match the right owners to the right markets.
•       Recruit and develop the people who will carry this growth with you.
•       Work with a team built on Stewardship, Transparency, Relationships, Ownership, Non-Judgment, and Generosity, and rooted in faith.

This is a chance to put your name on the growth of a mission-driven brand at the moment it’s ready to scale, not just add another year to your sales résumé.

You may thrive here if you’d rather say no to the wrong candidate than hit a number with the wrong owner, if you like building systems as much as closing deals, and if you want your work to matter to someone beyond the P&L.

The essentials

We’ll be straight about the essentials. The role is remote anywhere in the U.S., with an optional office in Allen, Texas, and some travel. Total compensation potential is $150,000 to $250,000+, including base salary, franchise and territory commissions, and an annual performance incentive. We’re looking for someone who has personally produced franchise sales. Beyond that, we care about capability, sound judgment, and a heart for the people we serve.
