"I watched a lot of YouTube videos and listened to many podcasts, and Visa Franchise kept coming up. I thought, “Okay, they’re very interesting—I have to meet with them.” That’s how I first found out about you, and I have to say, Visa Franchise has been amazing throughout the entire process."
"Visa Franchise definitely helped us a lot because I had no idea where to start my research or how to contact companies. It didn’t matter what type of visa it was since we had no idea how much we needed to spend. Once we started talking with Visa Franchise, I said, “Listen, this is my budget. Find something that fits so I can apply for an E-2 visa. Find a business that works for both B2C and B2B, which is really important to me.” And they handled all of that for us."
"One of the best ROI decisions I’ve ever made was definitely going with your team. Having thousands of data points already analyzed on my screen helped me make the best choice in selecting the right franchise."

"People like Visa Franchise, who are so confident about the process, offer you 95% assurance and a money-back guarantee. That was very convincing. I must say that a person who believes in their skill set and is ready to say, “I’ll guarantee it,” truly demonstrates professionalism."
"We approached Visa Franchise after watching their YouTube channel as we were trying to figure out which visa would apply to our situation. It can be overwhelming. Patrick and his team were incredibly responsive and thoroughly evaluated our situation. We ended up with a visa that matched our needs, and it has just been approved.
"Visa Franchise presented me with several options. DreamMaker Kitchen & Bath stood out because of its full-service, turnkey business model, which was the closest to what I had done in Brazil."
