We Don't Find Jobs. We Engineer Ownership.
ProprietorPath™ is the first structured platform designed to transition displaced senior executives into franchise and business ownership — permanently exiting the cycle of W-2 vulnerability through the proprietary FRANOMICS® methodology.
Decades of loyalty. Consistent performance. A résumé that reads like a success story. Then one restructuring memo changes everything. For hundreds of thousands of senior professionals, this is not a hypothetical — it's a Tuesday.
Traditional outplacement returns you to the same system that just discarded you. ProprietorPath™ offers a categorically different outcome: you don't find another job. You become the employer.
Corporate America eliminated hundreds of thousands of director-level and above positions in recent years alone. Outplacement firms recycle talent back into a shrinking pool of comparable roles.
Every corporate role — regardless of title or compensation — is one reorganization away from elimination. Senior executives are not immune; they are often the primary target.
Most displaced executives possess the skills, the savings, and — with proper guidance — the capital access to own a business. What they lack is a structured, expert pathway to get there.
We don't coach, counsel, or place. We guide you through a proprietary ownership transition architecture that ends with you holding equity — not an offer letter.
A six-stage proprietary framework developed over years of franchise consulting and business acquisition advisory. Every client engagement runs through the FRANOMICS® sequence — from intake to closing.
Proprietary SystemAccess to 400+ vetted franchise brands and a proprietary pipeline of Main Street and mid-market acquisition targets. Every opportunity is matched against your profile, skills, capital position, and market.
400+ BrandsSBA lending and alternative capital solutions through our lending division, combined with co-investment access through our family investment office. We don't just find you a business — we help fund it.
$500M+ PanelEvery ProprietorPath™ engagement follows the same proven sequence. No shortcuts. No guesswork. A disciplined process from intake through closing.
Deep-dive intake to map your skills, capital, risk profile, and market context.
Due diligence on shortlisted opportunities using the FRANOMICS Forensic Scorecard.
Proprietary scoring of each opportunity across 12 weighted criteria dimensions.
SBA lending review, alternative capital sourcing, and co-investment evaluation.
Final validation process — validating franchisors, sellers, and market data before commitment.
Legal, real estate, operational launch support. You open the door. We built the path.
Both paths begin with the same FRANOMICS® Sovereignty Workshop. The question is what you buy at the end — a proven system or a proven business.
Powered by FranMerica™ · The Franchise Consulting Company Network · 400+ Brands
You are buying a playbook — a proven operating system with brand recognition, marketing infrastructure, and a territory that belongs to you. Best for executives who want scalable structure without building from scratch.
Powered by BizQuisition™ · ProNova Partners Network · Off-Market Sourcing
You are buying a machine that already runs. Existing revenue, existing staff, existing customer relationships — from Day 1 of ownership. Best for executives who want to optimize, not build.
ProprietorPath™ is available as an employer-sponsored separation benefit — purchased at the point of displacement and delivered as a dignity-preserving, wealth-building alternative to traditional outplacement.
I will not recommend a business I wouldn't personally invest in myself — and through Oval Equity Partners, our family investment office, we put our own capital in the deals we believe in most. That is the only standard I know how to operate to.

FRANOMICS® is not just a program — it's a forthcoming trilogy that codifies how corporate executives evaluate, acquire, and exit businesses with the discipline of a private equity investor.
FRANOMICS: The Buyer is Book 1 of the FRANOMICS® Trilogy — the franchise and acquisition buyer's professional guide. Written for corporate professionals and transitioning executives, it covers the forensic framework behind every ProprietorPath™ recommendation: how to evaluate a business like a private equity investor, how to use retirement assets as debt-free startup capital via ROBS, and how to build a business designed to sell from Day 1.
Every ProprietorPath™ participant who purchases a copy receives a framework that makes them a more confident, better-prepared decision-maker. Bulk orders available for HR teams including the book in separation packages.
For every ProprietorPath™ participant who opens a business, OBG makes a charitable donation in your organization's name to the Global Kinship Festival — an internationally growing cultural movement founded by Jewan Tiwari in Haymarket, Virginia, inspired by the 5,000-year-old Kukur Tihar tradition of Nepal.
To sustain this mission: Direct Impact: OBG donates 2.5% of every placement fee. Amplified Impact: We provide a 1:1 match on sponsor company contributions, up to a total of 5%.
A three-day celebration honoring birds, cats, and dogs — inspired by Kukur Tihar, the 5,000-year-old Nepali festival of loyalty and service. Growing from a Northern Virginia community event toward internationally recognized cultural movement, with a long-term UN recognition pathway in development.
