In 2002, Mathews founded Franchise Performance Group to provide a full-service, outsourced franchise development solution for franchisors. Since then he has worked with 150 different brands, including Mobil, Dunkin’ Donuts, Midas, Arby’s, Marco’s Pizza, Mountain Mike’s Pizza, Stratus Building Solutions, College Hunks, and other National, Regional, and Emerging Growth brands.

Mathews has written five books on franchising: Amazon.com best-seller Street Smart Franchising (Entrepreneur Press) and self-published industry trade publications The Franchise Sales Tipping Point, Developing Peak Performing Franchisees, How to Create a Franchise Sales Breakthrough, Guaranteed, and The Future of Franchising.
