Mid-market companies need a full-time AI expert but can't justify the salary. As a Human Advisor AI franchisee, you become their on-call AI department — at 50–75% less than a full-time hire. That's not a sales pitch. That's the value proposition that closes clients.
Every company in America is trying to figure out AI. They need an expert but can't afford a full-time AI director. Nobody is filling that gap at scale. This is the most significant franchise opportunity since business coaching emerged — and you have the chance to be first.
Every company in America is trying to figure out AI. The ones that are winning have a dedicated AI expert guiding their decisions. But for a 200-person manufacturing company, hiring a full-time AI Director at $180,000 a year — plus benefits, equity, and overhead — simply isn't viable.
That's exactly the gap you fill. As their HA-AI advisor, you become their AI department — available, expert, accountable, and 50–75% less.
A full-time AI director costs $150,000–$200,000 per year in salary alone. Mid-market companies need that expertise but can't justify the overhead. You step into that role at 50–75% less — giving them everything a full-time AI hire would deliver, without the benefits, equity, or long-term commitment.
Every HA-AI client relationship is a monthly advisory retainer — $1,500 to $5,000+ per month. But that's only stream one. You also earn a 50% share of every vendor commission generated when clients adopt AI tools from the HA-AI marketplace — creating a second compounding income stream on top of your retainer base.
Most franchises confine you to a geographic area. HA-AI lets you work with clients anywhere in the US — or specialize nationally in a vertical like healthcare AI or manufacturing AI.
We've built the infrastructure. You bring the ambition and the relationships. Here's exactly what comes with your franchise.
Intensive training program covering AI landscape, vendor evaluation, client assessment methodology, and the complete HA-AI advisory process. You become the credentialed expert in your market.
National brand advertising, local market campaigns, SEO, content, and a CRM pre-loaded with prospects in your territory.
50+ rigorously vetted AI vendors across 10 categories — your unfair advantage. Every client assessment ends with you recommending proven, best-fit vendors no independent consultant can access.
Your own HA-AI branded website, client portal, assessment tools, proposal templates, and reporting dashboards. Professional-grade technology that makes you look and operate like a much larger firm.
Weekly group sessions, monthly 1:1 performance reviews, a peer network of HA-AI franchisees, and a dedicated support team. You're never figuring it out alone.
Unlike every major competing franchise, your practice has no geographic ceiling. Build deep roots locally and simultaneously win clients across the country. Your market is the entire United States — not a zip code someone else drew for you.
Most franchises give you one way to earn. Human Advisor AI gives you two — a recurring advisory retainer business and a 50/50 share of every AI vendor commission your clients generate.
A transparent, structured path from your first call with our franchise team to the day you open your practice. Every step is designed to protect your investment and set you up to win.
A private 45-minute conversation with our franchise team. We learn about your background, goals, and market — you learn about the full opportunity, compensation model, and what life as an HA-AI advisor looks like. No pressure. Full transparency.
You receive the Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD). We walk you through it section by section — fees, obligations, territory rights, and financial data. We encourage you to review it with an independent franchise attorney before proceeding.
We walk you through the complete HA-AI revenue model in detail — your retainer income tiers ($1,500–$5,000+/month per client), how the 50/50 vendor commission split compounds over time, and what a realistic 12-month ramp looks like based on actual franchisee data.
When you're ready — and only when you're ready — you sign the Franchise Agreement and pay your initial franchise fee. Your territory is secured. Your onboarding team is assigned. The clock starts on your path to launch.
Intensive HA-AI advisor training — AI landscape, vendor marketplace deep-dive, client assessment methodology, business development, proposal writing, and objection handling. You emerge with your Certified AI Business Advisor designation and full confidence to serve your first clients.
Your branded website goes live. Your CRM is loaded and your national lead generation campaigns activate. We guide your first three client meetings directly — so you walk in backed by a team that's done it hundreds of times. Your advisory practice is officially open.
No commitment. No pressure. Just a real conversation about whether this is the right opportunity for you at this point in your career.
We don't need AI engineers or tech experts. We need credible, well-networked professionals who understand business — people who can walk into a CEO's office and be immediately trusted as their go-to AI resource. You become their AI department. We give you everything you need to fill that role with authority.
You've spent 15–25 years in business. You understand operations, strategy, and what companies actually need. That credibility is your greatest asset with clients.
You know business owners and executives — locally and beyond. You're respected. People take your calls. That trust is the foundation of your first clients, wherever they are.
You're intellectually curious, excited by AI, and willing to become the most knowledgeable AI advisor in your market. We provide the training — you bring the ambition.
You have $75,000 available to invest and 12–18 months of operating runway. You're treating this as a serious national business — not a local side project with a zip code ceiling.
"Every mid-market CEO I talk to has the same problem: they know they need AI, they don't know who to trust to guide them through it, and they can't afford to hire someone full-time. You become that person. That's not a sales pitch — it's a category that doesn't exist yet. We're building it together."— Ken Boyce
200,000 mid-market companies. No internal AI expertise. A market that's growing faster than any other in business history. The franchisees who move now will define this category for the next decade.
No. Our most successful franchisees come from business operations, sales, consulting, and executive leadership — not tech. We provide full AI certification training. What matters is your credibility with business owners and your ability to build trusted relationships.
You pay a flat monthly royalty fee — a fixed amount regardless of your revenue. traditional B2B franchises charges 10% royalty + 5% marketing fee. traditional B2B franchises charges 15% + 3%. The more you earn under those models, the more you pay back to the franchisor — every single year. With HA-AI, you pay a fixed flat rate — and your technology platform is included, with no separate tech fee. Full fee details are provided in your franchise information package.
Franchisees complete certification ready to serve clients from day one of launch. With our sales and marketing plan running in your territory and your personal network to activate, the pipeline builds quickly. We also guide you through your first 3 client meetings directly.
As an independent, you spend 60% of your time on marketing, brand-building, and credibility. As an HA-AI franchisee, you get instant brand recognition, national lead generation, a vetted vendor marketplace clients can't access independently, and a proven system. The brand opens doors that take independents years to unlock.
When you match a client to an AI vendor in our marketplace, that vendor pays HA-AI a referral commission — typically 15–30% of the client's contract value, paid for 12–24 months. You receive 50% of that commission. The commission rates shown on this website reflect publicly available vendor partner program rates. Specific financial projections and earnings data will be disclosed in our Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) in accordance with FTC rules. We encourage all candidates to review the FDD carefully and consult an independent franchise attorney before making any investment decision.
No — and this is one of the most significant advantages of the HA-AI model. Unlike traditional B2B franchises that confine you to a defined geographic territory, you are free to work with clients anywhere in the United States. Most franchisees build their initial client base locally using their existing network and relationships — your local credibility and presence is a genuine competitive advantage. But there is nothing stopping you from simultaneously serving clients in other cities, industries, or regions. Your practice scales as far as your ambition and capability take it, with no geographic ceiling imposed by your franchise agreement.
This is actually your advantage. As AI evolves, your clients need guidance more than ever — not less. Our vendor marketplace is continuously updated, your certification is renewed annually, and our support team keeps you ahead of every major development. Clients who trust you will lean on you more as the landscape gets more complex.
