According to Lisa and John Chambers, a foggy window is what started everything. When the couple of 23 years had trouble finding a company to help fix their windows, they decided to do some research on their own. Before long, <a href="https://theglassgurufranchise.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=how-lisa-and-john-chambers-used-the-glass-gurus-exceptional-business-model-to-become-the-glass-gurus-of-their-neighborhood-2710949" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" style="text-decoration-line:none" target="_blank">The Glass Guru</a> came into their lives.

With over 80 active locations <a href="https://1851franchise.com/theglassguru/the-glass-guru-looks-to-continue-its-national-expansion-efforts-with-a-focus-on-nashville-tennessee-2706823#firstTrending" style="text-decoration-line:none" target="_blank">and counting</a>, <a href="https://1851franchise.com/theglassguru" style="text-decoration-line:none" target="_blank">The Glass Guru&rsquo;s</a> franchise opportunity gives entrepreneurs of all backgrounds the chance to open their own glass and window restoration and replacement business, complete with a proven business plan, marketing tools, ample training and an experienced support team to help them achieve their goals.

&ldquo;After years in corporate America, I became disillusioned,&rdquo; said John. &ldquo;Lisa and I wanted something where we could control our own destiny. After that day with the foggy window, we did some research and realized that The Glass Guru would be a great business fit for us.&rdquo;

The Chambers made some calls and soon found themselves at the brand&rsquo;s Discovery Day, learning everything they could from The Glass Guru&rsquo;s executive team.&nbsp;

&ldquo;Overall, we were comfortable moving forward with The Glass Guru because we had great confidence in the leadership team,&rdquo; said John. &ldquo;We are 100% confident that everything the team does is to improve the lives of the franchisees. They provide great resources to help us hit our goals.&rdquo;

Lisa Chambers echoed her husband&#39;s praise for the hands-on approach of the executive team. &ldquo;They&rsquo;ve been very helpful, friendly and encouraging,&rdquo; she said. &ldquo;I wouldn&rsquo;t be in the same position I am now without their guidance.&rdquo;

Once the couple was able to get their business up and running, they quickly found that there was a built-in niche right around the corner. According to John, the whole neighborhood had the same foggy window problem they&rsquo;d had and was actively seeking the right window company to help. This reiterated the Chambers&rsquo; confidence that they had a product they could be passionate about.&nbsp;

As a marketing director at a home care company, Lisa Chambers was no stranger to service-based businesses. Now, she is utilizing her marketing skills as &ldquo;the face&rdquo; of their Glass Guru franchise operation.

&ldquo;We definitely are looking to grow the business in our current location,&rdquo; said Lisa. &ldquo;I spend a lot of time networking, whether it be through Business Networking International or working with real estate agents in the area. I am also involved with two chambers of commerce. The work itself also allows for strong word-of-mouth brand recognition and expansion.&rdquo;&nbsp;

According to John, it seems like everyone in the neighborhood and surrounding communities knows of their business because of Lisa. The couple has been able to utilize each other&rsquo;s skills alongside the Glass Guru team for optimal success.&nbsp;

The success seen by the pair isn&rsquo;t uncommon among franchisees in The Glass Guru&rsquo;s system, something that&rsquo;s enabled the brand to establish a strong presence nationwide. Backed by this proven business system, The Glass Guru has made a name for itself as a leader in glass services and is ultimately looking to grow to 250 locations in North America within the next five to 10 years.

&ldquo;We love running our own company, hiring good employees and creating opportunities for them,&rdquo; said John. &ldquo;When we look back to where we started with The Glass Guru, we can&rsquo;t believe how far we&rsquo;ve come.&rdquo;

Franchisees who sign on to become a member of The Glass Guru team can expect their initial investment to range from $72,750 to $179,500, including a franchise fee that falls between $17,500 and $52,500.
