I certainly recommend working with Neil, who shared great franchise opportunities with me over the course of one year. While I did not end up pursuing a franchise at the time, Neil provided me with valuable insights and thoughtful perspective. Should my circumstances change, I would not hesitate to reconnect with Neil to see what’s out there…

I get messages from people who want me to buy a franchise every day and I have always told them I was not interested. Neil is different. I took the meeting with Neil and he opened my eyes to the possibilities of owning a franchise. He is honest, wise and insightful.

Neil Paur is insightful, an adept listener and has the preceptive acuity to help potential franchise owners hone in on the “best fit business” for their needs. It’s not a process, it’s a journey and Neil is an excellent captain. The best thing you could do is trust him and have faith in his coaching—this is key. He genuinely wants you to be a success and keeps connected to people he places years after their businesses have launched. I trust him and would not recommend him if I didn’t fully believe in him.

My journey to explore opportunities in franchising would not have gone far if I hadn’t met Neil and begin working with him. His depth of knowledge and understanding of my situation made it a pleasure to work with Neil and also led to identification of some great opportunities in the franchise space that were a good fit for me. Neil is the consummate professional and the go-to starting point for the franchising journey. Just a pleasure to work with. Can’t recommend him enough.

Neil is a great coach. He took the time to get to know me and did not push me to dive into business ownership when I was not completely ready. Neil continues to patiently work with me to find the best time and fit for me to launch a business.

Louis S.

Neil Paur is a great resource for anyone considering business ownership. After reviewing my Linked In profile, he contacted me by email from The Entrepreneur’s Source and offered his services in matching me with potential opportunities. Neil began with a thorough career assessment, then presented several businesses for me to research further. I attended webinars, met corporate personnel, and was placed in contact with successful business owners. In the interest of protecting the brand and reputation, candidates are screened carefully before these businesses invite the candidate to invest.

After being offered several business opportunities. I decided to take a different career path, although I am certainly glad that I explored this possibility with Neil Paur. He is trustworthy and knowledgeable, and truly wants what is best for his clients. What a good experience this has been!

Joan S.

He is very knowledgeable in the entrepreneurial experience and was able to help me determine my best path forward. I would recommend him to anyone in search of these opportunities!

Neil was remarkably thorough, patient, and insightful throughout my experience (and continues to be to this day).

Neil called me out of the blue having seen my info online. I normally dismiss cold calls, but Neil engaged my interest. He is a good listener, and active conversationalist and a great mentor. He opened a world to me that I had never considered and has been a great guide into the complex and broad spectrum of franchise opportunities. His patience, experience and friendship have become an asset.

Ward C

Everyone has a point in their career when they must make hard choices about their future. Having a person who has lived this experience and can pragmatically guide you through the process with new ideas and unique insights is priceless.

I had the opportunity to work with Neil when endeavoring to start my own business. Neil proved to be a wealth of information and a tremendous asset to the process. Perhaps Neil’s greatest asset was he listened intently to my needs and helped me to form a strategy and path forward based on my needs and goals. From strategic business planning to P/L management to family responsibilities, Neil is adept at incorporating those into the discussion so as to come to a solution that is complimentary.

I appreciated working with Neil and recommend him to anyway who is looking to go out on their own in the business world and could benefit from professional guidance.

He really listens to his clients and helps them problem solve and determine the next best course of action every step of the way. He provides sound feedback and insight about employers.

Neil exposed me to Franchise opportunities that suited my goals and talents. He led me through the franchise evaluation process in an organized manner. As I became more knowledgeable, he gave me more insight to each franchise’s business model. I appreciated Neil’s introductions to key people at each franchise. It was a great experience, I learned a lot, and highly recommend Neil.

Martha V

Neil is an amazing career coach; one of the best I have ever come across. He took the time to assess where my skills and interests lie, and then introduced me to new industries for franchise opportunities that I would not have thought of on my own. He was very insightful, patient and knowledgeable, informing me about the essentials of the franchise business, and on several promising industries, and then connected me with some highly reputable, successful franchises to consider. When I indicated a particular industry that I was especially interested in, he helped me work through the pros and cons, with extreme patience and insight throughout the process. I would highly recommend Neil.

Darina P

eil reached out to me with franchising opportunities earlier this year. While I decided this was not a path I wanted to take, I was impressed with Neil’s depth of knowledge, communications skills, patience, and ability to guide me through uncharted territory. I thoroughly enjoyed our discussions and benefited from them.

For anyone exploring new business opportunities I would wholeheartedly recommend Neil as a trusted guide and mentor.

James H

Neil worked with me to advance my career to the next level. He was great from the initial meeting where he helped craft a plan based on what I wanted to achieve, how to ensure I covered every base to get there to the end of the process. Neil is very intuitive. I really liked his calm demeanor and he always had the right advice when I asked for it. He is someone I would work with again!

Thomas S

I met Neil several months ago when looking for other career alternatives. Neil introduced me to The Entrepreneur’s Source and several compelling new career opportunities. I have to say the entire process was very eye-opening and enjoyable. I learned about several different business opportunities in a very comfortable and low-pressure environment. Neil is very helpful and knowledgeable. He is a great guide in helping you through the selection and evaluation process. His experience and the tools provided help you figure out what is important to you, which in turn helps you narrow your options and focus. While I ultimately decided to take another career path. The experience of working with Neil and The Entrepreneur’s Source helped me move in the direction I ultimately chose. However, under slightly different circumstances, I easily could have moved forward with a couple of the opportunities brought to me through Neil and The Entrepreneur’s Source. In fact, I still may move forward with one of the options presented in the near future.

Michael R

Neil is a great coach. He took the time to get to know me and did not push me to dive into business ownership when I was not completely ready. Neil continues to patiently work with me to find the best time and fit for me to launch a business.

Guiding my career

Neil introduces his clients to very compelling career opportunities and has a very well-planned out methodology for guiding them through various career opportunities. His process is very worthwhile and his expertise is second to none. I found him to be very logical and great to work with. I would recommend his coaching and process to anyone who is uncertain about where to head next in their professional life

George S

“I started with just me and one truck, working out of my garage. I now have four employees, and I am in a commercial space. The earnings potential is pretty well limitless at this point. I am busy. I do have to spend time away from my family just as I did before. But now, if I want to stay home and cook my kids breakfast, I can. On nice sunny days, if I want to cut out early to take the kids swimming, I do. I don’t just have weekends to choose from anymore.”

BRANDEN BOWDEN, New Business Owner

“After working as an executive in the Detroit area, I found myself at a crossroads. At the age of 64, many people are looking to wind down; but I was starting a whole new adventure. I considered taking another shot at the day-to-day corporate grind. I tried to find another position, but my wife and I have always dreamed of owning our own business, so we began to examine the possibilities. That’s when I found The Entrepreneur’s Source®. I feel my coach has developed his communication skills which allow him to listen with true empathy and I completely trusted The Entrepreneur’s Source process. Now I feel I have personal value in my work. I am loving being a business owner and can see the impact it can have on others. The Entrepreneur’s Source has a great process to help you explore self-sufficiency.”

RICK WEAVER, New Business Owner

“I was traveling across the country working in corporate sales and one day I realized that I didn’t want to travel anymore! That’s when I began to think about owning my own business. I began working with my Career Ownership Coach who helped me begin my Journey of Discovery. For me, it was a great process. I was learning about what excited and motivated me, but also what didn’t! That was just as important. I am so happy I went on the “journey,” and was also happy to have my coach along with me. He was a very good listener. He was genuinely interested in my long-term success. and he challenged me to see some things I didn’t even see in myself.”

LEE PUTNAM, New Business Owner

“I had worked for 15 years in the world of corporate finance when I was forced to make a sudden exit. I had always thought to myself, I have this great corporate job, I’m on easy street. But I was really in the wrong place at the wrong time. I had no control over my own destiny. My Career Ownership Coach helped me take a close look at Franchising to achieve self-sufficiency.  Franchising was a better choice for me rather than starting a business from the ground up. I have a good sense of how things should run and customer service but I tend not to be strong on the sales side and frankly, I am not the stereotypical idea-man. A franchise is giving you the playbook, and you have a product. In my mind a lot of the basics have been built, you just need to follow the proven system. When friends are approaching those exit ramps in life, the first thing I tell them to do is to connect with a Career Ownership Coach at The Entrepreneur’s source.”

ANDREW BROWN, New Business Owner

“The first time I met with my coach, I didn’t think I would walk out with a popcorn stand…Throughout my career, I never once dreamed I’d be in the place I’m in now. I thank E-Source for helping guide me.”

BILL BENTZ, New Business Owner

“Being an entrepreneur was always an idea in my head, but to be honest, I thought when I got to the point in my life that I had a family, that that ship had sailed. My wife and I met with our Career Ownership Coach and found The Entrepreneur’s Source® to be a valuable tool throughout our discovery process. Now, as a business owner I have not only raised nearly $1 million dollars for schools in my community, but I work hard, and I get the flexibility to do what I want to do when I want to do it.”
