Chris Jacobs

I am the master franchisee for What's On 4 in the US.  I enjoy a successful professional career and a growing young family.  Our son Connor was born in November, 2010 and we just learned that we will be parents again to twins in July, 2012.  It will be a challenge, yet very exciting and rewarding. 

I have been looking for an opportunity to own a new business and there were two main goals I identified for my business.

First, I wanted to provide a valuable service and second, I wanted it to be flexible enough so I could spend time with my family.  

I came across the opportunity at What's On 4 and was immediately intrigued.  After talking with Sam and the other franchisees, I quickly realized that What's On 4 would fulfill both my goals.     

I understand the need to find local information on things to do, see and experience with my family quickly and accurately.  Like Sam, I too struggled to find a source for local information on activities and classes for children.  What I did find were websites that confused you with so much information that it was extremely difficult to locate what I needed.

The children's websites of What's On 4 are organized in a way to make it easy to search for age specific activities and classes.  Together with the support and guidance from the What's on 4 UK team we are showcasing all there is to offer for children in the US.
