Loyalty Brands Leadership
People Inspiring The Whole Team Every Day
John T. Hewitt
Loyalty Brands / Founder & CEO
Having previously founded both Jackson Hewitt and Liberty Tax Service, John has used his 55 years of tax experience and remarkable business acumen to develop the next stage in his unmatched franchise success: Loyalty Brands. He’s the foundation on which our company’s foundation is built.
Loyalty Brands is a synergistic group of franchise businesses and services designed to work together to help the franchise buyer prosper both quickly and over the long term. Decades of documented franchise and business success have enabled Loyalty Brands to develop a business system that drives customer loyalty, repeat business, and financial stability. The proven systems allow a franchise business to run smoothly and efficiently while achieving consistent, measurable growth.
John founded Loyalty Brands in 2018 and has grown it from zero brands to eight in six short years. The Loyalty Brands family includes ATAX Tax Service, Ledgers, Zoomin Groomin, Salty Dawg Pet Salon + Bakery, Hike Doggie, Cooper’s Scoopers, and Whole Property Management. Each of these franchise concepts are easily knitted together to provide interested prospects and current franchisees a portfolio of businesses that are exciting for them to consider.
Under John’s leadership, Loyalty Brands is thriving. The company is aggressively seeking new franchisees, area representatives, and other emerging franchise brands to join the team.
