About This Video
In this owner testimonial, Lance and Debbie Richard of Des Moines, Iowa share how they opened their Dryer Vent Wizard franchise in December 2021. Lance explains that he spent about 35 years running radio stations, and when that career played out the couple did not want to leave Iowa, so they began looking for a business to buy. He describes how earlier marketing work with a sister Neighborly brand, Mr. Electric, led him to discover that this franchise was available in the Des Moines market. Debbie, a stay-at-home mom at the time, helped weigh the decision, and together they explored the opportunity. The couple says the journey has gone much better than expected, with growth over three years that surprised them. Beyond the numbers, Lance describes the deep satisfaction of building something successful, comparing it to raising a child and watching it grow. He also emphasizes that in this business your success and your failures are your own. Watch the full testimonial to hear how the Richards built their franchise.
