About this episode
Right Time
Take a stroll down memory lane as Frank and Cindy Miller step into the San Juan Boardroom. It’s clear that opposites attract as you hear about their background going back to when they met in the ‘60s. The couple open up about the difficulties they faced together - over the decades as well as recent history. Stay tuned as Cindy opens up about how things have changed over the years for women in the industry.

Right People
Frank and Cindy sold Impact Pest Elimination to Turner Pest, an Anticimex platform, in the fourth quarter of 2021. The recently retired duo give credit to Arab - where they got their start - and the people that they surrounded themselves with - Gary Cole, Tom Wisdo, and Donnie Karcher - and those that were born into the business and had to work their way up - Leanne Prewitt and Kristine Krauss. Their daughters don’t fit the SOB (sons of businessmen) mold that Paul frequently finds. There is a lot to learn as they talk about their four branches (and four corporations) and how they thrived on inner-company competition. Starting with Customer #1 many times over, Frank and Cindy share their secret to success in this memorable sit-down.
On today’s menu: PB&J on toast as Frank adds, “would you like a warm-up on your coffee? Hey! Keep your hands to yourself!”
