317 | Paul Flick | How I Created a Multi-Million Multi-Service Franchise Company

In today's show, we are going to re-broadcast our interview with Paul Flick, one of our successful alumni, who has 20 years of leadership and management experience in the franchising industry. 

Paul is the CEO and Founder of Premium Service Brands (a company that offers multiple services in the home services space) and 360 Degree Painting (a painting franchise company whereas Premium).

Paul was a guest on our show in the fall of 2020 when he talked about his experience with Student Painter back in the 1980s when he helped open up a new division in Michigan and Ohio, he shared details about his job at Coca-Cola after leaving our program and he discussed his successful career as an entrepreneur and what he does in the present.

At the beginning of today's show we are also going to play a recent follow-up to Paul’s interview, a conversation in which he will talk about what happened to his businesses from 2020 since today, how he has acquired a number of new brands and grown his business from a $100 million to $400 million in just 2 years and a half.

You will also find out how Paul engaged with private equity back in 2021 and what that process has been like.

He will talk about how his experience with knocking on doors at Student Painters still helps him today and he will share his plans for the next five years and how he is planning to grow his business into a billion-dollar one.

You will also learn more about how to survive massive economic downturns, how business structures allow you to work with greater freedom, how to run a successful franchise operation and so much more.
