Today's professional job market is highly competitive and more difficult than ever. It has become more challenging to manage a successful job search.
Career Plan International is America's most innovative personal career marketing firm which draws on more than 30 years of combined professional knowledge. The economy and world events have had a negative impact on job search. The globalization of our economy and the outsourcing of jobs has heavily impacted how professionals view their value and marketability. People are resigned to reacting to the few published jobs that exist. They find themselves competing with hundreds of other applicants for the same position.
Our franchisees assist mid and senior level managers as well as professionals from all career fields, civilian or military in their job search. We serve both corporations and individuals. CPI is not an employment agency or recruiting firm.
We combine technique with technology to design and implement successful career strategies. Our advanced individual career search methods, business intelligence, personal career marketing, and unequaled resources bring our clients a distinct competitive advantage in the job market.
For many people, the dream of owning their own business is just that - a dream. But it doesn't need to be. With a CPI franchise you can turn your dreams into a reality and be your own boss, create a new career, and begin enjoying the many benefits and prestige of association with a professional business.
We provide training, assistance in site selection, office design and equipment ordering assistance before you open your Office, and ongoing support once you're open.
Our Success is based entirely on the success of our Franchisees. The only way we succeed is to have you succeed. Consequently, we are very careful in our selection process. In selecting Franchisees, preference is given to applicants with the Following characteristics:
"There are risks and costs to a plan of action. But, they are far
less than the long-range risks and costs of comfortable inaction."

The information presented may have changed since first published. We recommend that you always verify fees, investment amounts and offers with the business opportunity directly prior to making a decision to invest.
1. What training and ongoing support do you provide?
You want to know what happens after you pay the initial fee. A strong franchisor provides comprehensive pre-opening training, site-selection help, operational playbooks, and continuous assistance with marketing, technology, and supply chains.
2. What is the total initial investment, and did actual startup costs match the estimates in Item 7 of the FDD?
The Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) lists estimated startup costs in Item 7, but real-world expenses can run higher. Asking how closely current owners tracked to these estimates reveals if you need extra working capital or if hidden fees exist.
3. How do royalties and local/national marketing fees impact profitability?
You need to understand ongoing financial obligations-such as monthly royalty percentages and ad fund contributions-and evaluate whether the brand value and support justify cutting into your profit margins.
4. What are the common challenges new franchisees face, and how do you help them overcome them?
Transparent franchisors will openly discuss real hurdles like local competition, tight labor markets, or supply chain bottlenecks, and show you the exact playbook or field support they offer to solve them as well as allowing you to speak with other franchisees.
5. How many franchise locations have closed or left the system in the past few years, and why?
High turnover, store closures, or quiet franchise exits are major red flags. This question measures system stability, territory health, and whether the corporate team addresses struggling owners or lets them fail.
