FranCoach CEO Recognized as a Leading Franchise Influencer
on
Most of the press releases we publish detail new franchise owners we’re proud to have helped achieve their goal of franchise ownership. However, we have something a little different to share today.
We’re proud to announce that FranCoach CEO Tim Parmeter was included on SeoSamba’s list of the top 100 franchise influencers for 2025.
What Is SeoSamba?
SeoSamba is a scalable and automated SEO service platform that was first created by SEO and technology veterans Michel Leconte and David Culot. Currently in its third iteration, SeoSamba was originally developed way back in 2003.
SeoSamba helps businesses and brands use digital marketing and sales automation techniques to improve their operations and, ultimately, their bottom line. Some of the products and services they offer include mobile chat applications, review management platforms, and SEO automation software.
What Is the SeoSamba Top 100 Global Franchise Influencers List?
The SeoSamba Top 100 Global Franchise Influencers is a prestigious list that includes executives, consultants, attorneys, marketers, and association leaders who are involved in the franchise industry.
The list is intended to highlight individuals who are helping to shape the future of franchising by introducing innovative solutions, making strategic decisions, and mentoring others within the industry – something Tim spends the bulk of his time doing.
SeoSamba has been publishing their list annually since 2021. The organization identifies the individuals who will be included on a given year’s list by considering a combination of public nominations and input from industry leaders, as well as through the brand’s own internal research.
Influencers are selected for the list based on their impact, innovations, leadership, or advocacy for the franchise industry.
Tim’s Thoughts on Being Included on the SeoSamba List of the Top 100 Franchise Influencers
“We pulled Tim away from running FranCoach, working with his own clients, dropping episodes of the Franchising 101 Podcast, and co-hosting his new TV show, The Franchising 360 Show, to chat about his inclusion on the list and how he felt about the honor.
FranCoach: Thanks for taking the time to speak with us, Tim. Let’s start by simply asking how you found out you had been included on the list? Did they reach out directly to you or did you hear it via the grapevine?
Tim: I found out literally by seeing the post on LinkedIn. Obviously, I’m very familiar with SEO Samba and the great work they do, including this list, but I had no idea it was about to come out nor did I have any clue that I was about to be on it.
FranCoach: How did it feel when you found out?
Tim: Honestly, I felt a few different things. First and foremost, it’s a fantastic honor, and I greatly appreciate the team at SEO Samba for including me on this list. Secondly, I don’t think of this recognition as being about only me – I really see this as an award for FranCoach. Nothing I do is done to seek recognition. We just simply try to wake up every day and do the right thing for our clients and our franchise partners so it is humbling that others in the industry see the great work we do and were kind enough to vote for me.
FranCoach: Were you already familiar with the list before being included, or was this the first time you learned about it?
Tim: I was very familiar with the list from past years. Typically these are things my wife ends up on so it was a pleasant surprise to see that I was included this year. The complete list of the top 100 has yet to come out, so hopefully she will be included too.
FranCoach: What happens now? Surely you want to appear on the list again next year, right?
Tim: Ha! Yeah, that would be great. But more than anything, I just hope to be alive this time next year to see the list again. But for now, we’re just going to get back to work. We have an amazing team at FranCoach and a constant stream of clients reaching out to us, so break’s over!
