Business & Franchise Coach for First-Time Entrepreneurs & Canadian Investors

I’ve walked the path myself — moving from Canada to the U.S., launching my first franchise, and building multi-unit success. Now I help you do the same — with clarity, confidence, and a proven roadmap.

Hey there!

I'M SONIA.

Franchise Strategist. Multi-Unit Owner. Corporate Leader Turned Business Coach.

I’ve Done Exactly What You’re About to Do
I’m Sonia — a business and franchise coach, corporate leader, and proud Canadian who moved to the U.S. to launch my first franchise.

I know what it feels like to take that leap — new country, new system, big dreams. I used proven strategies, avoided costly mistakes, and grew from first-time franchisee to multi-unit owner.

Now, I’m your guide and partner on the same journey — helping you launch your first business or franchise, and (if you’re Canadian) navigate the E2 or EB-5 visa process with confidence.
