It’s here—Masters Week in Augusta.
The lead-up events have wrapped up beautifully. The Augusta National Women’s Amateur concluded this past Saturday, followed by the Drive, Chip, and Putt junior competition on Sunday. Practice rounds kicked off Monday, and today brings the always-enjoyable Par 3 Tournament. You can feel the momentum and excitement building—it’s electric.
Tomorrow, the Masters Tournament officially begins, featuring the top 50 ranked golfers in the world along with a select group of exceptional players. Living in Augusta, you don’t just watch the Masters—you feel it. The energy is real, the excitement is contagious, and as they say, it’s “like no other.”
As a child—and a few times as an adult—I had the privilege of attending the tournament. Those experiences stick with you. And as any golf fan knows, tickets are incredibly hard to come by these days.
Watching all of this unfold got me thinking…
In many ways, my role as a franchise advisor is similar to that of a caddy. I help people tee up their future. I know the course, the challenges, and the opportunities ahead. I help guide each decision—what club to use, when to take the shot, and how to navigate the path toward success.
And speaking of new chapters…
Two weeks ago, I announced my retirement after 22 years. It’s been an incredible journey—and now I’m excited for what’s ahead.
If you’ve been thinking about becoming the master of your own destiny… if you’re curious whether franchise ownership could be your next move… I’d love for you to take that first step.
Reach out to my partner, Jeff Shafritz. He’ll tee you up for an engaging and insightful introduction to the world of franchising and help you navigate what’s possible.

In the meantime, enjoy the tournament. I know I’ll be glued to the TV.
May you be wildly wealthy in all areas of your life,
