Four consecutive Entrepreneur rankings, four years as the World’s Best Franchise Marketing Firm and three consecutive Gold Stevie Awards highlight Reshift Media and Franify’s leadership in franchise marketing and technology
Reshift Media, an award-winning digital marketing and technology company specializing in franchise and multi-location organizations across the United States, Canada and internationally, has been named one of Entrepreneur magazine’s Top Franchise Suppliers for the fourth consecutive year, ranking #2 in the Marketing Agencies category for 2026.
The recognition adds to a sustained run of international accolades for Reshift Media. The company has been recognized as the World’s Best Franchise Marketing Firm at the Global Franchise Awards for four consecutive years and has received three consecutive Gold Stevie Awards at the International Business Awards, most recently for Technical Innovation of the Year for Franify, Reshift Media’s AI-powered franchise marketing platform.
“Being recognized by Entrepreneur for the fourth consecutive year is incredibly meaningful because the ranking is driven by feedback from the franchise community,” said Steve Buors, CEO and Co-Founder of Reshift Media. “When you combine that with four consecutive Global Franchise Awards and three consecutive Gold Stevie Awards, we’re incredibly proud of the consistency. We have chosen to focus our company on franchise marketing, innovation and technology, and it’s rewarding to see that work recognized year after year.”
Four Consecutive Years of Recognition from Entrepreneur
Entrepreneur’s annual Top Franchise Suppliers ranking is based on feedback from franchisors, with more than 1,000 franchise brands participating in 2026. Franchisors identify the suppliers they and their franchisees work with and rate their satisfaction based on quality, cost and value. The highest-scoring suppliers are then ranked within their respective categories.
Reshift Media’s fourth consecutive appearance reflects the company’s long-term specialization in franchise digital marketing. Reshift Media works with franchise and multi-location organizations on digital advertising, social media, search engine optimization, franchise development marketing, content and influencer marketing, website and mobile development, conversion optimization and proprietary franchise marketing technology.
The company’s approach is designed around a fundamental challenge in franchise marketing: enabling franchisors to develop sophisticated, brand-led marketing strategies while empowering individual franchise locations to execute effective, locally relevant marketing in their communities.
A Growing Record of Franchise Marketing Innovation
The Entrepreneur ranking follows Reshift Media’s fourth consecutive Global Franchise Award, recognizing the company as the World’s Best Franchise Marketing Firm. Reshift Media has received the international franchise marketing honor every year from 2023 through 2026.
Reshift Media has also received three consecutive Gold Stevie Awards at the International Business Awards. The company was named Marketing Disruptor of the Year in both 2024 and 2025, recognizing its innovative approach to localized franchise digital marketing and proprietary technology.
In 2026, that recognition evolved from marketing innovation to technology innovation when Franify received Gold for Technical Innovation of the Year.
Franify is Reshift Media’s AI-powered digital marketing platform built specifically for franchise and multi-location organizations. The platform connects franchisor strategy and brand control with franchisee-level local marketing execution, allowing organizations to create marketing initiatives centrally and localize them across dozens, hundreds or thousands of locations.
Franify combines digital advertising, social media management and publishing, franchise development marketing, dynamic localization, campaign management, local budgeting and billing, analytics, reporting, AI and automation in a centralized franchise marketing platform.
Rather than adapting general-purpose marketing software to franchising, Franify was developed specifically around the relationship between franchisors and franchisees. Head office teams can establish campaigns, creative and brand controls centrally, while individual franchisees can participate in approved marketing programs localized for their markets.
Franify builds on more than a decade of franchise marketing technology developed by Reshift Media and represents the company’s continued investment in using AI, automation and technology to help franchise organizations scale national and local marketing.
