In this episode, I sit down with Eric, founder of Optic-Kleer, one of the fastest-growing windshield replacement franchises in the world. From his roots in the UK Air Force to leading a franchise empire that spans both the UK and the US, Eric’s journey is all about impact, innovation, and helping others win.
We unpack how Optic-Kleer capitalized on ADAS technology, how the brand empowers franchisees to earn from day one, and why support and systems beat solo hustling every time. If you’re exploring franchise ownership or looking for your next business move, this one’s packed with gems.
We talk about:
🔥 How Eric built a franchise model that scales fast and supports deep
🔥 Why ADAS is a game changer for profit margins in the auto industry
🔥 How franchisees are earning $220K+ with a mobile-first model
🔥 The kind of people who thrive as Optic-Kleer owners
🔥 Why Eric finds his purpose in helping others build their business
Whether you're dreaming about franchising, growing your portfolio, or searching for a business with real infrastructure and heart, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.
