From HVAC Success to Private Equity Powerhouse: Matt Buckwalter
Manage episode 443227110 series 3559926
When Matt Buckwalter began his journey in the trades industry 24 years ago, he never anticipated that his franchise business, Punctual Pros, would one day catch the attention of a private equity powerhouse like Broad Sky Partners. The New York-based firm recognized not only the strong foundation Matt built but also the strategic advantages of aligning with a franchisor like Authority Brands.
As a founding owner of three leading brands—One Hour Heating & Air Conditioning, Benjamin Franklin Plumbing, and Mister Sparky Electric—Matt attributes his success to providing a comprehensive suite of services across Central PA. His unique approach, offering a one-stop solution for HVAC, plumbing, and electrical needs, allowed him to thrive across 240+ zip codes, with 65% of customers using services from all three brands.
To take his business to the next level, Matt partnered with Broad Sky Partners to access new growth opportunities and scale operations more efficiently. Matt’s journey offers valuable insights for both new entrepreneurs and experienced franchise owners.
Topics he explores include:
➡️ His plans for the future and what the acquisition by Broad Sky Partners means for him
➡️ How private equity acquisitions are opening new doors for franchise owners
➡️ The benefits of multi-brand ownership under Authority Brands and how it paved the way for his success
