Fostering positive relationships with every
team member is valued highly at College
Hunks. According to Jackson, “it’s a matter
of caring, engaging, listening and communi-
cating as much as possible, as well as involv-
ing everybody in the decision-making pro-
cess.”
“
We’re transparent with everything we do at
every point in time. We have huddles every
morning and everyone is invited to join the
conversation and be a part of the learning,”
Jackson says. “Everything from what our
goals are to how we plan to reach them – ev-
erybody is a part of creating the solutions.”
When College Hunks looks for a new team
member, they look for someone with goals
and ambitions. They want team members
who are going to live the brand and purpose,
as well as someone who has an entre-
preneurial streak in them.
“
We want people who are
going to be able to
think outside the
box, be cre-
ative,
come
up with solu-
tions and act
on behalf of
the company
to make the
right decision
for the company, themselves and the client,”
Jackson says.
College Hunks has 44 franchises in the
United States, and are currently offering
franchise opportunities in Canada. “We’re
rapidly spreading in different areas of the
country.”
