Franchise Owner Testimonials

“Hi my name is Phil Dzienciol and I am a franchisee in Evansville, Indiana. We recently had the opportunity to open our 2nd Wayback on November 12th. Everyone at Jake’s Franchising was great to work with and helped me so much along the way. It is a pleasure working with every department. When we did our first store in 2012, we were F56, now we are F150. Back then I felt my opinion had value...today I feel the same. They are "moving the needle forward" ..they are staying in touch from top to bottom. I believe the infrastructure they have put in place is sound and will continue to move the system forward in brand recognition. Wayback has given us sound footing to work with...I, as the franchisee must get out there and engage the local community in which we work and serve. By doing this; we are improving the value of the Wayback brand; along with increasing the value of P&D Burgers Inc.
