When we bought our Pink's Windows franchise, no one told us the real secret: big commercial accounts are a double-edged sword that could make or break your first year.
Jack and Jill Johnson pull back the curtain on their franchise journey, revealing how they navigated the dangerous gap between commercial payment cycles and the daily cash demands of payroll and operations.
Inside this episode:
- Why their $50K emergency fund wasn't just nice—it was essential survival gear
- The scheduling hack they used to prevent employee burnout while scaling to 2-3 new leads daily
- Their counterintuitive approach to prioritizing same-day cash from residential jobs alongside bigger commercial contracts
- The franchise industries consistently outperforming during economic downturns (backed by their 12+ months of data)
Plus: Why service businesses without heavy material dependency remain recession-resistant—crucial intel if you're considering the franchise path.
The Johnsons don't just share theory—they're in the trenches, building a business that serves their life (not the other way around). Text them directly at 305-710-0050 to continue the conversation.
