Budget Blinds Announces its Most-ever Million Dollar Club Members in 2021

TL;DR

Budget Blinds announced a record number of franchisees in the Million Dollar Club, with over 900 business owners in the U.S. and Canada receiving the award for making $1 million or more in sales in 2020. The company's direct-to-customer business model and introduction of virtual design consultations contributed to its success despite the pandemic.

A record percentage of the more than 900 Budget Blinds business owners in the U.S. and Canada received the Million Dollar Club award for making $1 million or more in window covering and accessory sales in 2020. The awards were announced by Budget Blinds President Doug Phillip at the 2021 convention for Budget Blinds franchisees earlier this year.

The largest window covering franchise in North America, Budget Blinds offers custom blinds, shutters, shades, drapery and more for residential and commercial consumers. Budget Blinds business owners serve more than 10,000 communities in the U.S., Canada and Mexico, and have dressed more than 25 million windows since 1992.

“The fact that the biggest Million Dollar Club year in our history happened during a pandemic proves the success of Budget Blinds’ direct-to-customer business model - which in 2020 introduced new, all-virtual design consultations to allow franchisees to continue our legacy for personalized customer service while upholding all safety protocols,” said Phillip. “Congratulations to all the Budget Blinds business owners who worked even harder last year to maintain Budget Blinds’ status as the premier window covering brand for both homeowners and franchisees.”

Earlier this year, Budget Blinds received its best-ever #12 ranking in Entrepreneur magazine’s 2021 Franchise 500®, the world’s first, best and most comprehensive franchise ranking.
