Christy Ogle Sometimes Spouse

Christy Ogle, founder of Sometimes Spouse, has been an active, ongoing topic on the franchise industry blog UnhappyFranchisee.Com.

Sometimes Spouse is a home services cleaning and repair franchise based in Waco, Texas offered by Max Ogle and Christy Ogle.  All of the Sometimes Spouse franchisees have failed and lost their money.  You can read about it

Christy Ogle filed for Bankruptcy in January, 2020 

The couple that holds themselves up as business start-up gurus claim that they are $1.6M in debt.  Their “business empire” has $5,000 in the bank and its only asset is a $20 office chair.

See:  (SOMETIMES SPOUSE Christy Ogle Max Ogle Bankruptcy Filing ).

Max & Christy Ogle Lawsuits

Numerous Lawsuits by Franchisees & Partners  Christy Ogle & Max Ogle have been sued by more than 10 former franchisees and business partners in 4 separate lawsuits.

Sometimes Spouse Fake Facebook Pages & Phony Reviews

Fake Facebook Pages  Christy Ogle broadcasts these messages using about 50 Facebook pages (for fake or defunct Sometimes Spouse office locations), Youtube, Instagram, TikTok and more.

Christy Ogle Sometimes Spouse Deceptive Website

False Location List As of 4/30/20, their Sometimes Spouse website contained a location guide and map showing 40+ non-existent office locations.  

Many of these supposedly franchised offices have no address or use the addresses of UPS Stores or Postnet mail drops to give the illusion of actual locations.

Christy Ogle Potential Bankruptcy Fraud

In this post, it asks Will This Waco Couple Get Away With Fraud? Watchdog Website Needs Your Help.

The victims allege that Christy Ogle & Max Ogle, who have been sued by more than 10 franchisees and partners in at least 4 lawsuits, provided false information to the U.S. bankruptcy court in an effort to wipe away $1.6M the couple owe their creditors, including those who have court-ordered judgements.

Unhappy Franchisee publisher Sean Kelly has established a GoFundMe Campaign to cover time and expenses in researching, documenting, preparing and submitting a report to the Department of Justice requesting denial of the Ogle’s Chapter 7 bankruptcy petition and requesting an investigation into allegations of criminal bankruptcy fraud and perjury.

UnhappyFranchisee.Com’s investigation has already uncovered some compelling evidence that the Ogle’s may have made false or incomplete representations in their initial bankruptcy filing 1/28/20 to the U.S. Bankruptcy Court, Western District of Texas.  The investigation has also yielded compelling evidence that both Christy Ogle and Max Ogle knowingly made false statements, under oath, in an official hearing conducted via teleconference on April 17, 2020.

People with information on Christy Ogle, Max Ogle or Sometimes Spouse should post it on UnhappyFranchisee.Com.

NY Bagel Cafe Franchise Warnings on UnhappyFranchisee.Com

NY Bagel Cafe franchise topics have been widely covered on UnhappyFranchisee.Com  which has communicated its opinion that Joseph Smith and Dennis Mason are running a lucrative franchise scam by promising trusting individuals the opportunity to join a young, successful franchise chain and own their own bagel café for an upfront fee ranging from $17,500 – $29,500.


UnhappyFranchisee.Com believes that most who sign franchise agreements with NY Bagel Café are neither provided funding nor have their initial fees of $17,500 – $29,500 refunded.  Dennis Mason & Joe Smith, they believe, simply keep their money, knowing that they can’t afford to hire a lawyer and won’t be able to collect a judgement even if they are awarded one.

Former Zookeeper's Pet Franchise Gets Accolades at TopNewFranchises.com

Best New Franchises -  A national talent search for the best new franchise opportunities has unleashed a flurry of furry praise for Bellerose, NY franchisor In Home Pet Services and its founder, Robyn Elman.

Franchise industry trendwatcher Sean Kelly launched the interactive TopNewFranchises.com site to identify promising new and emerging franchise opportunities across the nation.  The site invites readers to nominate new franchise opportunities for a free listing, and to vote on their favorite new businesses by leaving a message of support.

"We had never heard of In Home Pet Services or Ms. Elman when we posted the listing," said Kelly.  "The outpouring of praise and support for the In Home Pet Services was immediate and amazing.  More than three dozen heartfelt testimonials came in virtually overnight, moving Elman's franchise to the #1 spot nationally."

In Home Pet Services is a home-based dog walking and pet sitting company founded by entrepreneur Robyn Elman after she left her former career as a zookeeper at the Bronx Zoo.  In addition to Elman's company-owned location, there are currently four In Home Pet Services locations operated by franchise owners in Northeast Queens and Great Neck, Clinton Hill, Marine Park and Forest Hills.  

Each location offers dog walking, in-home boarding, pet first aid/CPR classes, pet sitting, bird clipping and other services.  Each franchise owner is trained in pet first aid & pet CPR, and lives in the community he or she serves.
The outpouring of support by customers, employees and franchisees seems to be generated by In Home Pet Service's systemwide devotion to the needs of both pets and pet owners.

In casting his vote, In Home Pet Services client Timothy wrote:  "I was initially referred to IHPS through a friend. I normally get pretty uptight about the care of my "little girls" (a beautiful Bichon and Beagle)… I just wanted to spread the word re their superb care since they've been so great to me!"

Dana Malatino wrote:  "…my chocolate lab and I have tried out a variety of businesses and I have never been as satisfied with the overall care, passion and professionalism from any of the businesses I have tried out in the past as I am with In-Home Pet Services... I would recommend In-Home Pet Services, Inc to everyone."

In Home Pet Services client Andrea wrote:  "I have an 11-1/2 year old yorkie with clinical separation anxiety, and if it weren't for Robyn and her staff, I don't know what I would have done all these years! …it has been a pleasure to see the business succeed and grow over the past several years!"

Franchise owners also posted votes of confidence in the franchise opportunity which can be started for as little as $7,000 and operated from home.

"I just have to say that the day I found In Home Pet Services and of course Robyn, my entire life changed," wrote franchise owner Diana Hurtado. "I learned what the true purpose of my life was and Robyn helped achieve my dream"

Helping others achieve their dreams of owning a business working with the pets they love has provided rewards to the young franchisor as well.  According to Robyn Elman, who was interviewed on the site after gaining the lead in the Top New Franchises competition:  "I LOVE being able to have taken people who wanted to have their own business and work with animals, and help them be the successful business owner they always dreamed of being. This may sound a little corny but it's the absolute truth. This opportunity has changed their lives… and mine."
