Hey I’m looking for advice. I’m a 30m I had an amazing opportunity that lead to me owning 3 small store fronts in a franchise pre covid. After covid the franchise started putting pressure on me to sell due to a buy out of the company. I was doing very well for myself in comparison to the rest of the company. The new owners of the franchise kept making me offers twice a month to sell and everytime I would turn them down. Services I was able to offer thru the company would “magically” get shut off due to “system” issues until the next meeting where they would make another offer. These services account for 60% or my gross. They were trying to force a sale and eventually they succeeded but they crushed me in the process. How do you bounce back from something like this? I feel like they ruined me and my confidence is destroyed. Im trying to figure out how to get my life back and quit feeling like shit everytime I look in the mirror. I Build those store with my blood, sweat, and tears. It was all stolen from me and I can’t figure out how to move forward. Anybody that’s ever been thru something like this, how did you come back? I feel so lost.

    Personally, this sounds like they went into breach of contract and you were materially damaged by their lack of action.

    You could be a multi millionaire if you get good legal counsel, hope you have good records.

    When people play hardball, you need to play harder.
