Blood, Sweat & Tears of Building a Business

“Even with a franchise, there are many tidy details and lessons to be learned. These things are easy to miss, and it’s important to take time and pick up a nugget or two to improve your life,” says Shannon Hudson, co-founder and CEO of 9Round. “I don’t want you to sleepwalk through life, missing all the lessons as you go. Most people are just going through the motions and doing the same thing over and over – wondering why they keep getting the same results. Make sure you’re noticing and soaking up every nugget of knowledge along the way.”

This week on Franchise Today co-hosts Stan Friedman and Paul Segreto welcome Shannon "The Cannon" Hudson as their guest. Shannon is co-founder and CEO of 9Round, the world’s largest and fastest-growing kickboxing gym franchise. Based on his journey from a world kickboxing champion to the founder of a worldwide brand, Shannon discusses the blood, sweat and tears of building an international fitness chain.
