In summer '49, College Pro started a podcast to showcase the "x" element of our current franchisees that make them successful. In a limited-time series called Torch Given, in summer '50, our CEO Tony Valle is sitting down to talk with the founders, past CEOs, and trusted partners of this resilient brand called College Pro.
Aaron Anders is the current President of College Pro. He was given the tough task right from the start of guiding a home servicing company through a global pandemic. He has come across unique challenges that were unprecedented throughout the past 50 Summers of College Pro but has still been able to constantly evolve the company despite these challenges. 
He has a history with the company starting out as a franchisee and working his way up to his current role. Like many, he never anticipated his summer job from university to become his career but in both his work and home life he has not been able to escape College Pro. He met his wife while they were both in their 5th year as franchisees with him being on the window cleaning side, while she was on the painting side of the company. Together they have three kids, who we would have to assume are all future star franchisees. 
Aaron and Tony talk about the career progression and the skills Aaron learned from his time with College Pro and how that has translated into who he is today. They talk about COVID and how that challenged the company while they were already undergoing drastic changes. The conversation ends with Aaron passing on some wisdom and insight into what College Pro might look like into the future.
