Christy Wilson Delk Meets with Franchise Interviews

An Evening with Christy Wilson Delk

We have a podcast scheduled with Christy Wilson Delk. After working in corporate sales and distribution for 17 years, she decided to take a leap of faith. In 1996, she sold her house and withdrew funds from her 401K plan to make the down payment on a $1.7 million SBA loan, which was necessary to purchase and develop a Kids R Kids Academy franchise in Orlando, Florida.

Over the following 15 years, she expanded her business twice, transforming it into one of the largest franchises in her industry, before successfully exiting in 2012.

Christy Wilson Delk, now a speaker, entrepreneur, and educator, serves as an Adjunct Professor of Entrepreneurship at Rollins College and contributes as a writer. She has shifted her focus to helping others achieve greater professional success by building successful businesses.
