A multi-store Taco Bell franchise was hitting rock bottom due to mismanaged accounting. Then a hurricane hit. Here's how Global Shared Services navigated the financial crisis, got accounting practices back on track, and set the franchise on the path to stability and growth.
GSS's FTE model measures an employee's total workload to find the ideal number of full-time staff. This innovative approach lets franchisors develop concepts, outsource services, and streamline operations.

“We started with GSS because we had 300% turnover in our CFO role. We had IRS audits and a default with our lender for reporting requirements. Within four months of working with GSS, these issues were resolved, and we got back to the business of running our restaurants. We feel protected working with GSS.”
