    Guest Bios:







    SCOTT R. FREERKSEN Co-Founder | Chief Executive Officer Scott dedicated the first 17 years of his career in a variety of New England high-tech corporate management positions. This experience in engineering, personnel, documentation, and finance created the foundation for his future entrepreneurial roles. Scott started Lakefront Living Realty in 2009 with only the state of Massachusetts represented on LakefrontLiving.com. The site quickly became the one-stop-shop for consumers looking to learn the full details of area lakes, find direct lakefront properties quickly, and connect with local lakefront specialty agents.

    As the number of visitors magnified, so did the need for more lakes. New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Connecticut were soon added. With a territory this large, Scott set up systems to run the business, and a teams of specialty agents to run the systems. His role quickly evolved to working “on” the business and not “in” it…learning he could multiply his business revenue while drastically reducing his time involved.

    This proven model soon caught the eye of his future business partner, Christine Mosier, and in 2014, the two entrepreneurs founded Lakefront Living International, LLC, a national real estate franchise company dedicated to providing this unique business model to agents who share their passion for the lakefront lifestyle. Scott and Chris refer to franchisees as “partners”, as that better describes their relationship.

    Scott, his wife Linda, and daughter Sydney, live in a log home on Bungay Lake in Massachusetts. They are avid boaters and enjoy everything the lakefront lifestyle has to offer.





    CHRISTINE A. MOSIER Co-Founder | Chief Operations Officer Chris has been selling real estate since 2003. She started out at a large national real estate chain working with seasoned agents and learning from the best. As her business grew, she and her husband purchased a lakefront home in Apple Valley, Ohio, as a “neutral” blending ground for their three children. It was there that her love of lakefront living took root and her dream of a career focusing exclusively on lakefront property was born.

    As “Central Ohio’s Lakefront Specialist”, Chris could frequently be found ‘boating’ clients around the lake. With the help of her dedicated team of professionals, she soon expanded her Brokerage across the entire state of Ohio. Together, Chris and her team were consistently able to break sales records as they received honors awarded to only the top 10 percent for the state.

    Her exceptional lakefront marketing and sales skills, along with her previous franchise experience (Dream Dinners), made Chris the perfect partner for Scott. In 2014, the two joined forces to create “Lakefront Living International.” Relying on her tenacity and her strong, faith-inspired vision, Chris has dedicated herself to expanding the company nationwide. She relishes working with her partners and cherishes her role as an educator, coach, and motivator.

    Chris understands that when the franchises succeed, they all succeed. That’s why she prides herself on being kind, open and honest. She’ll do whatever it takes to help her franchisees achieve their goals.

    Tom Branch has been in private practice since 1980, after graduating from the University of Georgia School of Law. He received his undergraduate degree from Emory University in 1975, graduating with High Honors. Tom is also a member of the American and Atlanta Bar Associations, as well as the State Bar of Georgia. He is a member of the American Bar Association Forum on Franchising. He was a co-founder of the Southeast Franchise Forum and the Atlanta Bar Association Franchise Law Committee. He has served on the Board of Directors of the Atlanta Bar Association and served as a Board Member and as Chairman of the Board of the Atlanta Bar Association Sole Practitioner and Small Firm Section. He was the author of “Franchising in Georgia,” in the Georgia State Bar Journal, November, 1987.
    Tom is a trusted legal advisor to a diverse range of clients in the franchise community, including franchisors, franchisees and those who are considering a franchise and would like to understand the Franchise Disclosure Document and receive legal counsel before signing a franchise agreement.
    Interview Topics:
    *Overview of Franchise Regulation in the US?
    *Franchise Disclosure Document
    *Litigation in the franchise area - types of claims
    *Trends in businesses being franchised
    *Challenges for franchisors and franchisees.
    The value of working with a Franchise Attorney?
    A Franchise Agreement is a legal contract that you are entering into and franchise law is specialized. I had one franchisor share with me that an attorney claimed they understood franchise law and then tried to rewrite the state requirements for that industry (Senior Care), which cost the prospective franchisee an arm and a leg.
    Be wise, get an experienced franchise attorney, such as Tom Branch to review and explain the documents and the obligations as a franchisee and to let you know if there are any concerns or clauses that need to be balanced.

Through his first business endeavor in the indoor trampoline business in 2010, with a goal to franchise the concept, was introduced to franchising through a business ownership workshop in Los Angeles.

    After realizing the power of growing a business model through franchising, Michael took on a position as a Franchise consultant in the Los Angeles market helping budding entrepreneurs find their business match through select franchise opportunities. Through his work with numerous franchise brands and with an eventual goal to be closer to family, moved into Franchise Development. Michael developed an emerging healthy food concept out of the Bay area into what is now a well-known national brand, Vitality Bowls Superfood Cafe. Michael joined Look Good brands in 2019 and is focused on developing emerging brands in the beauty and healthy living market segments.

  • The Future of Public Transportation is Here Now!
    Transportation is a personal issue shared by us all. To get around, shop, commute, get to the airport, we use a combination of cars, buses, trains, however, all have their share of drawbacks from wasted time in traffic, pollution, and 30%-50% of urban land is dedicated just for transportation.
    Transit X builds and operates privately financed public transit podways that can transform cities and metropolitan areas to be green and walkable.
    A podway is an automated transit network with the convenience, capacity, and cost to replace cars, buses, trains, trucks, ferries, and short flights. Transit X is the silver bullet for transportation.
    Our guest, Mike Stanley, Founder of Transit X will enlighten us how ‘podways’ can safely provide the convenience and privacy we have in our cars, the high capacity achieved with buses and trains, the time compression from planes and is as sustainable to our environment as bicycles.
