Today I am speaking with Brandy Gilbert a successful Urban Air Adventure Park Franchisee. Brandy is one kick-ass chick (pardon my french).She spent 22 years working in multi-unit retail, all while growing her family. While she was pregnant with her second child, she realized she needed to change her career to accommodate her children’s schedule.
Brandy’s first visit to a trampoline park was with a group of kids and her 6 month old son and a light bulb went off. So began her hunt to learn as much as she could about different franchise opportunities. As fate would have it a lifelong friend’s brother had just bought an Urban Air...and I guess you can say the rest is history!
