Scott Brings More than Three Decades of Franchise Experience to the Position
Alliance Franchise Brands, a franchisor of marketing, print, signage and graphics communications concepts, has appointed Danielle Scott chief development officer. Scott is a certified franchise executive with more than 30 years of franchise development and operational leadership experience with brands including Patrice & Associates, Sylvan Learning and Zippy Shell Moving & Storage.
“I’ve spent my career around franchise systems, and what stood out to me about Alliance Franchise Brands is that this company is not content with staying comfortable,” Scott said. “There’s a real appetite for growth here and a leadership team that’s thinking bigger about what comes next. That’s the kind of challenge I love. I’m excited to step into the CDO role, build on the momentum already happening across the portfolio and help drive the next phase of expansion.”
Scott retains her position as CEO of ProBuild Solutions, a management and consultancy firm, while serving in this new role. She also continues to be a partner with ZGrowth Partner, a consulting firm that manages the sales and development process of emerging brands.
She advises aspiring franchise owners to pick something they love, fully commit to the discovery process, put business and financing plans together, and have an exit strategy.
Michael Marcantonio, CEO of Alliance Franchise Brands, praised Scott’s passion for franchising. “She brings a sharp understanding of development strategy, but more importantly, she understands the people behind the businesses and what it takes to help franchise systems grow the right way. We are riding a serious wave of momentum, and Danielle is exactly the kind of leader who can help guide our next phase of growth,” Marcantonio said.
