Brian’s family has been in the Midas business since 1976.
Since Brian took over the family business in 2010, he has successfully grown the company from six to 29 locations — positioning themselves as the fourth largest Midas franchisee in the United States — and increased revenue from $5M to $26M in sales.
In today's episode of Boring Businesses, I'm joined by Brian Beers to explore the world of franchising, the opportunities and challenges of taking over a family business, the secrets behind starting a Midas franchise in 2023, and so much more.
