Charleys Philly Steaks Franchise is a Hit with Online Influencer

Iconic cheesesteak franchise is growing brand recognition by getting highlighted on popular YouTube shows

With the onset of technology and social media, it’s no secret the world moves fast and changes quickly. But no matter what new trends or fashions come, one thing remains true: people love Charleys Philly Cheesesteak Franchise.

Recently, one of the most popular YouTube influencers, Good Mythical Morning, which has nearly 18 million followers, singled out Charleys Philly Steaks as one of the few restaurants they’d choose when building their “ideal food court.”

Indeed, Charleys Philly Steaks were included as the “crème of the crop,” listed on the top line with three other franchise restaurants that also have a major following. The fact that Charleys Philly Steaks’ brand awareness is so incredible they were included on a list with other household names and big players in food franchising is further proof the sandwich shop is one of America’s favorite.

“Everyone knows what Philly cheesesteaks are and we have millions of people who love our food,” says Charley Shin, founder of Charleys Philly Steaks. “It all really started with a dream that I had, and now that dream continues every time a new franchise owner comes on board.”

One of the main reasons aspiring entrepreneurs choose to invest in Charleys Philly Steaks is because they know the iconic sandwich shop has unreal brand recognition and a huge consumer demand. Our customers obviously regard Charleys’ food as elite compared to other franchise restaurants, a result of our dedication to serving quality 100% USDA choice steak, a simple but accessible menu and consistent quality service.

“One of the best ways entrepreneurs investigating a franchise opportunity can gauge if the brand is worth the investment is to look at how many existing franchise owners are reinvesting,” Shin says. “We’re proud to say that more than half of our growth comes from franchise owners reinvesting in new locations. This means that we’re doing something right, and we honor their commitment to us by providing them with the resources they need to thrive in business.”

Since being founded in 1986, Charley Philly Steaks has stood out from other burger, pizza and sandwich franchises, which all too often, start to taste the same to customers. At Charleys Philly Steaks, however, we meet an underserved demand for authentic Philly steaks, now with more than 630 locations in the U.S. and around the world.

“Every market is flooded with chicken, burgers, salads, pizza and burritos, and as popular as the cheesesteak has become, it still is a vastly underserved segment,” Shin says. “Our millions of fans love us because we emphasize quality ingredients, cook every meal to order right in front of the customer, and deliver an unforgettable experience every time. Our franchise owners love us because they get to serve a product they can be proud of and run a business that is designed for long-term growth. Owning a cheesesteak franchise is a win for your community and a win for our franchise owners.”
