Current Operator, Sep 21, 2023Budget Blinds is a family, you have to put in the effort, but you get return on your effort, both financially and in the form of family, friends, colleagues.
Current Operator, Aug 23, 2023Budget Blinds Corporate is not using their size and resources to provide franchisees with much needed employment programs, systems ie. Corporate Health plan, commercial insurance, vehicle, fuel, 401k, staff relief, hardware discounts etc. Rather to focused on their own needs.
Current Operator, Jul 27, 2023I believe when I purchased the franchises it was to get out of corporate America, we have had 3 different owners and every time they feel they need to change something that affects our business drastically
