About us

Dream it. Decide it. Do it—with the Boss Builders.
We are a full-service franchise consulting and development firm dedicated to helping professionals take control of their future through business ownership. Known as "The Franchise Gals," we specialize in guiding aspiring entrepreneurs through a proven, personalized process to identify and research franchise opportunities that offer a true path to long-term success.
With over 4,400 franchise concepts available in the U.S. alone, choosing the right franchise can be overwhelming. Not all franchises are created equal—and even the most recognizable brands may not be the right fit for everyone. That’s why we take the time to understand your goals, experience, strengths, lifestyle, and risk tolerance—to match you with opportunities that align with your vision for success.
Our team brings decades of experience in supporting individuals who are in transition. We've owned businesses, and guided countless individuals—just like you—toward life-changing career and business decisions!
Who We Are
Corliss Jackson, a seasoned consultant and transition expert, became an entrepreneur after a decade-long career with the federal government. Two decades ago, Corliss made a bold move—leaving her executive government role to launch her own business. In 2006, she founded Manifest Consulting Group--a multi-million dollar government contracting firm, and Manifest Careers--where she’s helped tens of thousands of professionals navigate career transitions and launch new ventures around the world. A passionate writer, Corliss is also the published author of Cracking the Federal Job Code and a featured columnist for The Washington Post’s Corliss’ Corner, where she provided regularly advice to readers on making successful life transitions. Corliss brings that same passion for transformation and strategic guidance to Boss Builders, especially for clients who are seeking a new direction—whether they’re transitioning out of the military, looking for a new venture, or simply ready to pursue entrepreneurship.
Ciara Jackson adds an extremely powerful dimension to Boss Builders as a seasoned marketing consultant with deep experience in brand development and customer engagement. Her expertise in digital marketing, campaign strategy, and content creation informs our franchise consulting process—helping our clients identify business opportunities that are aligned with today’s consumer landscape. Ciara’s insight into modern marketing trends and buyer behavior plays a critical role in guiding clients toward franchises that are well-positioned for growth from the start.
