Don Crouch and NFP Sports Endorse NexGoal as their Franchise Partner

Cleveland, Ohio (March 13, 2015) – At NexGoal, we specialize working with athletes and placing them into positions with our corporate clients. This specialization of working with athletes is what makes our partnership with NFP Sports a no brainer. NFP Sports understands the value a former athlete can bring to their team in a sports central work environment.

“We came to know NexGoal wearing both our franchisor and franchisee hats. As a franchisor, we value the expertise NexGoal has in recruiting and working with athletes and see them as a High Impact partner for our NFP Sports Team Owners. As a franchisee, we would not have had the time to search for and review candidates as quickly as Kevin Dahl and his team was able to do for us in our company-run locations. We look forward to continued success having them as a franchise partner for our NFP Sports Team Owners.”

Don Crouch, Co-Founder
National Fundraising Partners | NFP Sports franchise brand

NexGoal is pleased to have met the needs of NFP Sports and we look forward to a mutually beneficial partnership for years to come!

NexGoal co-owner Kevin Dahl will be in attendance for the annual PAFI (Professional Athlete Franchise Initiative) Franchise Summit, July 13-15, in Atlanta, GA.

PAFI’s mission is to bring awareness to the professional athlete community through, education, research and interaction with the franchise community.

The summit focuses on the education process surrounding the franchising model to current and former athletes looking to start a new career as a business owner, as well as wealth managers, agents, business advisors, and franchisors.

Over the three-day event, attendees will attend seminars, tours of franchises in the Atlanta area, panel discussions, and an expo.

“The educational element of the PAFI Franchise Summit is just as important as the networking opportunities,” added Dahl. “As prospective business owners, these athletes have a chance to speak with other athletes who have been through the franchising experience and can share first hand the ups and downs of their journey, and why franchising is a great alternative to just starting your own business.”
