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. Affectionately known as "The Franchise Sherpas," 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: After years of working at the intersection of leadership, strategy, and growth, I’ve learned a few things well: how to ask the right questions, how to simplify complexity, and how to help people move from uncertainty to clarity—with a plan they can actually execute. I’m deeply passionate about helping individuals grow into entrepreneurs with intention.

Whether I’m helping an employee get started down the entrepreneur pathway, advising clients on franchise ownership, supporting professionals through career transitions, or building business development strategies, my goal is always the same: create structure, build confidence, and position clients to win.

Through Boss-Builders, I advise aspiring and transitioning entrepreneurs on franchise ownership—helping them evaluate opportunities, understand investment models, and select businesses that align with their goals, lifestyle, and long-term vision. Through Manifest Consulting Group, I lead work supporting federal, state, and local agencies across Human Capital Management, Program Management, Leadership Development, and Technology Management arenas.

My superpowers? Asking the right questions, bringing order to chaos, and helping smart people cut through the complexity and the noise to see what’s possible—then translating strategy into clear, disciplined action that moves them forward.

Ciara 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.

At Boss Builders, we believe the right franchise can change your life—and we’re here to guide you to it. Let’s make your next chapter your best chapter ever!
