🎙 Episode 42 - In this episode of The Franchise Champion Show, Alan sits down with Matt Martin and Tammy Romage of Satellite Teams Global. Matt shares how he accidentally stumbled into franchising after building a global HR infrastructure to solve his own offshore staffing challenges. Today, the company acts as an international recruiter and employer of record, handling compliance, payroll, and benefits so clients can easily hire global talent under a single invoice.

The duo break down how this relationship-driven model maintains a 98% revenue retention rate and why it's built for experienced corporate professionals rather than novice entrepreneurs. They also discuss the role of AI in their expansion, offering a transparent look at what it truly takes to build and franchise a business from the ground up.
