About Scott Lyons

Scott Lyons
Founder
Franchise Capital Risk Advisory
I’ve spent 15+ years leading and scaling multi-unit, service-based franchise operations across multiple markets — both as a franchisee and in senior leadership roles with full P&L accountability and capital responsibility.
​
I’ve reviewed real operating performance and built projections grounded in real-world execution. I understand how projections translate — and where they break — once doors open.
​
Franchise Capital Risk Advisory exists for one purpose:
to evaluate capital risk before funds are committed.
​
My approach reflects how disciplined operators and lenders assess risk:
​
-
Conservative assumptions
-
Focus on downside exposure
-
Clear decision criteria
-
Pressure-testing under realistic conditions
