Milestone Franchising Celebrates More Than Five Years of Guiding Aspiring Business Owners

Hamilton, NJ-based Certified Franchise Consultant marks milestone of growth, community impact, and expanded reach

HAMILTON, NJ — April 2026 — Milestone Franchising, a boutique franchise advisory practice based in Hamilton, NJ, is proud to mark five-plus years of operation since its founding in September 2020. Led by Certified Franchise Consultant Lisa Linkowsky, the practice has guided more than 500 candidates through the franchise discovery and selection process, with a strong concentration of clients across New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania.

Linkowsky launched Milestone Franchising following a pandemic-era pivot from a successful career as a multi-unit franchise owner — channeling firsthand ownership experience into a candidate-first advisory model.

"I knew what it felt like to sit on the other side of the table," Linkowsky said. "That experience — the excitement, the uncertainty, the research — is exactly what I bring to every candidate conversation."

A Record of Industry Leadership and Community Investment

In addition to building her practice, Linkowsky has authored more than 35 articles for FranchiseWire, hosted the television program Franchise Focus featuring 100+ expert interviews. She serves as Membership Chair of the Princeton-Mercer Regional Chamber of Commerce and received the Fred Young Champion for Business award. Board Member of One Simple Wish, Community Partner for Shine & Inspire. She gives back to her alma mater Rider University as both a presenter in the Veteran Entrepreneurship Training Program and a mentor for the Gail Bierenbaum Leadership Council.

Within the franchise industry, she serves as a monthly Impact Presenter for the International Franchise Professionals Group (IFPG) and leads two nationwide franchise mastermind groups.

Looking Ahead

As Milestone Franchising enters its sixth year, Linkowsky is expanding beyond her exclusively referral-based model with a refreshed digital presence and a newly formalized advisory service for small business owners exploring franchising their own concepts.
