CHRGD franchise finance and royalty automation dashboard

Overview

Managing franchise finances across multiple locations can involve a significant amount of sales data, royalty calculations, reconciliation, and reporting.

When these processes rely on spreadsheets and manual workflows, franchisors can spend considerable time collecting data, reconciling payments, and monitoring franchise performance.

We worked on CHRGD as a centralized franchise finance platform designed to automate these processes and provide franchisors with greater visibility across their network.

The platform connects with franchisees' POS systems, brings sales data into one place, automates royalty processes, and provides performance insights for both franchisors and franchisees.

Challenges

Managing Sales Data Across Locations

Franchisors need to track sales across multiple franchise locations, but collecting information manually from different systems can create additional administrative work.

Manual Royalty Reconciliation

Calculating and reconciling royalties manually can lead to delays, payment follow-ups, and additional auditing effort.

Limited Network Visibility

Without centralized and up-to-date data, franchisors may have limited visibility into how individual locations and the overall network are performing.

Improving Franchisee Performance

Franchisees also need access to meaningful performance data to understand how their location is performing and identify opportunities for improvement.

Reducing Administrative Overhead

Manual reconciliation and reporting can take time away from higher-value activities such as supporting franchise growth and improving network performance.
