Jared sits down with Vishal Bhasin, Co-Founder of Wize Computing Academy, a rapidly growing STEM education franchise with a mission to empower the next generation through technology and entrepreneurship. With more than 40 locations across the U.S. and Canada, their innovative, home-based model delivers STEAM enrichment for kids aged 4–18. 

Together, they unpack a powerful question: What does freedom in franchising really mean — time freedom, financial freedom, or both? Is building a business your path to more control, or does it come with trade-offs? Vishal shares how Wize franchisees scale their operations using frameworks like OKRs, build recurring revenue without running a brick-and-mortar, and transition from working in the business to working on the business.
