BUDGET BLINDS trains individuals to own and operate a home-based business that sells and installs window coverings, via a well-equipped mobile showroom. What makes our franchise unique is that we actually teach people how to run a business, versus teaching people how to do a job. By business we mean hiring, monitoring and maintaining employees, working from cash flow, profit loss and balance statements, We teach what business owners need to know, not what job operators want to know.
