Listen Later

In this episode, host Paul Ehlinger sits down with Gavin Lantzy, Head of Franchise Sales at Daisy. Gavin shares his journey from college-age multi-unit franchisee to helping build the largest smart-home installation brand in the country.

From acquiring 17 companies in 18 months to building a national support infrastructure with 41 full-time experts, he pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to scale a modern home-tech franchise.

Listeners will hear:

  • How Gavin went from running a student house-painting franchise to acquiring and franchising Savvy Home in Denver.
  • Why the smart-home industry is a $30B emerging category — and why no national player existed until now.
  • How Daisy leverages centralized systems, national partnerships, and franchise marketing tools to deliver a consistent, high-quality customer experience.
  • Why mindset, transparency, and selecting the right partners are critical for franchise growth.
  • How Daisy handles integrations, acquisitions, and tech-stack decisions at venture-backed speed.
  • Why scaling a home-tech brand requires relentless iteration, clear communication, and a team that puts the brand above ego.

🎧 A must-listen if you want a front-row seat to how a high-velocity franchise is being built — and how AI workflow optimization, national infrastructure, and the right people can transform business with AI in the home-technology space.
