Lepper Praises the Plumbing Franchise’s Integrity and Commitment to Franchisee Success
Katie Lepper has been named director of franchise development for bluefrog Plumbing + Drain. Her background includes serving in franchise development and business consulting roles at Empower Brands and FranCoach.
“bluefrog Plumbing + Drain’s culture drew me in first,” Lepper said. “Backed by Stellar Service Brands, bluefrog’s success stems from its integrity and commitment to franchisee success. I knew this was the right place to help even more entrepreneurs succeed. There’s nothing better than watching someone go from exploring an opportunity to confidently building a business they can be proud of.”
She said franchise owners benefit from Stellar Service Brands’ strong leadership, proven systems and shared expertise. “It’s a company that’s committed to growing the right way — without compromising integrity, culture or franchisee success.”
Zach Munroe, vice president of franchise development at Stellar Service Brands, said Lepper is the ideal leader for bluefrog’s next phase of expansion because of her dedication to franchisee success. “There is a continued demand for reliable, professional plumbing services, and bringing Katie on board is a strategic move to accelerate bluefrog Plumbing + Drain’s growth. We are looking to partner with driven entrepreneurs who want to make a true impact in their work within their local communities,” Munroe said.
Lepper expressed optimism for the future of the home services industry. “Home services are essential, resilient and always in demand. They offer entrepreneurs the opportunity to build meaningful businesses while making a real difference in the communities they serve,” she said.
Outside of franchising, Lepper enjoys the beach, traveling, live music and laughing with family and friends. “I’ve always been a people person, and connecting others is one of my favorite things to do,” she said. “Turns out the chatty kid in the back of the classroom grew up to make a career out of chatting and connecting people.”
