Charlie Baker

Owner and President

Charlie Baker is the founder and President of ACE Franchise Services, a consulting and franchise placement company.  He started the company in 2011 after a very successful career with the Dwyer Group, one of the largest service franchise companies in the world.

After many years of experience in franchising at the Dwyer Group, the timing was right for Charlie to help people navigate the franchise world in his own business.  There is no greater reward for him then to successfully go through that process and change lives.

Business ownership can be an attainable dream for many.   Charlie is known for his Integrity, experience and being personable.

Message from Charlie,

“I have been a very successful manager and leader in a number of fields including finance, education, and computers. Because I have over 20 years of experience as a leader in the Franchise environment and because I have helped over 350 families become Franchises; I am in a unique position to council and consult with the individual who is seeking the right business.

In today’s world, many good people are now without a job, or just realize that there is no job security in the corporate rat race. Going into their own business or finding the right franchise can be frustrating, time consuming, and just aggravating. I can help find the best franchise for that person to maximize their potential, and achieve short and long term goals.

I also have a passion for helping Franchise companies in their development efforts.

We have been fortunate enough to recruit an outstanding team of Franchise Professionals to facilitate the placement process”

Specialties: Charlie’s specialties all revolve around his ability to communicate clearly and to guide individuals through the ‘maze’ that they find exploring opportunities alone. A clear understanding of how things work, and the ability to be of service to people so that they find a business that will allow them to achieve their personal and financial goals is a special ability.
