In 1992, Chad
co-founded Budget Blinds with his brother and three close friends with no more
than a smile on his face and $5000 in his pocket. Today, the company has grown
to become the largest window coverings franchise in North
America. Budget Blinds now finds itself invaluably positioned in a
multi-billion dollar industry that is expected to grow by 6% in the coming
years. From blinds
to shutters,
drapes to shades, Budget Blinds is a one-stop source for a homeowner’s window
covering needs. The company celebrates its 20th anniversary this
year so the timing couldn’t be better to commemorate this achievement by
participating in Undercover Boss!
Although Chad
began on the front lines, his years behind the desk are sure to make an impact
on his performance on the show. “When I was approached with the opportunity, I
took it without hesitation,” Chad
said. “To be able to work with the franchisees that have made this company a
success was something I could not pass up - even though I haven’t taken part in
an in-home consultation or installed a blind in quite some time!”
