How Bee Organized Grew to 46 Franchisees | Building a Franchise Brand Ep. 2 - Kristen Christian

What does it really feel like to go from selling your first franchise to realizing you’re now responsible for building an entire franchise system… all while still figuring it out yourself?

Kristen Christian, Co-Founder of Bee Organized, talks openly about what franchising actually looks like after those early wins: the expectations, the reality, and the moments where passion meets pressure.

Kristen shares how Bee Organized grew to 46 franchisees, why pausing was sometimes the smartest move, and what every founder needs to understand about protecting their brand, their franchisees, and their future.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
✅ The difference between excitement-driven selling vs. expectation-driven franchising
✅ Why Bee Organized paused franchise sales twice and how it fueled growth
✅ The real challenges of supporting early franchisees while building systems in real time
✅ How founder mindset, grit, and honesty shape franchise success more than anything else
✅ What Kristen wishes she knew before becoming a franchisor (and what she’d do differently)

Why Watch:
If you’re building a franchise or thinking about franchising your business, this candid look at Expectations vs. Reality will help you understand the real work behind creating a strong franchise system and why the “pause,” the process, and the people matter more than speed.
