From Not Ranked to #66

When I saw that Spoiled Rotten Photography made Entrepreneur’s list of Top Franchises Under $50K this year – landing at #66 out of 100 – my first feeling was simple: honored.

Last year, we didn’t make the list. Honestly, I wasn’t sure why. We’ve never been the kind of franchise that grows at lightning speed. We’re more of a slow and steady story – and intentionally so. My heart has always been to grow in a way that lets us truly support our franchise owners, not just add numbers for the sake of appearances.

That’s why this recognition feels extra meaningful. Entrepreneur isn’t a “pay to play” list – it’s credible. And when you combine this with our consistently strong rankings from Franchise Business Review (which comes directly from the voices of our franchise owners), it feels like validation that our approach works: caring deeply about the people we serve and supporting every single owner like family.

We’re not for everyone – and that’s okay. We’re looking for like-minded people who love working with children, have a heart for photography, and want to be part of something joyful. If that sounds like you, I’d love for you to meet Tara. She’s one of the sweetest people I know and will gladly share more about what this business looks like day-to-day.

We may be #66 on the list, but the people in this franchise – our owners, our families, our partner schools – will always be #1 in my heart.
