Veteran On The Move

Navy Veteran Kevin Schramm joins the show to discuss his path from military service to business ownership. After serving four years as a jet mechanic, Kevin navigated several career changes—including car sales and insurance—before finding his niche in the franchise world. Kevin shares the setbacks he faced early on, including a failed venture where the franchisor went out of business. He explains how he used those lessons to partner with a franchise broker and eventually become the first out-of-state owner for LIME Painting.
