Use High Performance Principles to Become a Franchise Champion

You don't need a business degree to build a multi-million dollar asset. You need the discipline, grit, and mindset of an athlete combined with a proven, repeatable system.

I help high-achievers apply athletic discipline and Stanford-level engineering systems to build multi-million dollar franchise assets.

Alan's High-Performance Convictions

Applying athletic discipline and engineering systems to business ownership.

Own the Scoreboard
"Stop renting your career. Own the asset and the scoreboard."
In the corporate world, you are renting your job. No matter how hard you train or how much revenue you generate, you can be cut in a single meeting. When you own a franchise, you own the equity, the system, and the score.
The Athlete Mindset
"Discipline and grit outperform genius every single day."
You don't need to reinvent the wheel or have an Ivy League business degree. Franchising is a playbook. If you have the athletic discipline to follow the system and the grit to execute, you will win.
Run It Like a Franchise
"Build a business that runs on systems, not on your personal labor."
The goal of business ownership is freedom, not a 60-hour-a-week job. We focus on building systems and hiring managers early so your business becomes a cash-flowing asset that doesn't require your daily presence.

My Background

D1 Athlete, Stanford Engineer, Multi-Million Dollar Franchise Owner

Alan Regala is a former Division 1 athlete (Cal Poly) and Stanford-educated engineer (MS Mechanical Engineering) who built and sold a multi-million dollar ShelfGenie franchise business over 14 years. Having generated over $4M in annual sales and successfully exited his business in May 2024, Alan knows exactly what it takes to transition from a corporate employee to a franchise champion.

His coaching company, Athlete to Owner, uses the principles of high-performance athletic training—discipline, grit, and systematic execution—to help high-achievers discover, vet, and dominate their ideal franchise business models.

“Success in business isn't about luck. It's about combining athletic grit with a playbook and executing day in and day out.”
