Get Up and Go Kayaking - Franchise
Justin Buzzi started Get Up and Go Kayaking in the summer of 2016 and has devoted more and more time to create a sustainable business model that could feed growth on the production side, as well as the consumer side of the business. He saw a growing trend in the popularity of clear kayak tours and the apparent need for a professional service that could help customers who wanted to have a fun and exciting experience that has the capabilities of going viral in every market. The Get Up and Go Kayaking brand was established in order to bring consistency and professionalism to the marketplace. Justin has developed the sales processes, safety procedures, documentation, and the systems needed to effectively present the value proposition to potential customers. In less than a year, the business was successful and generating positive cash flow and showed signs of needing to expand, including a growing waiting list. Justin started working the business full-time in 2017 and added systems and processes to fuel the expansion.

“I had the pleasure of guiding for Rock Springs, Winter Park, and Titusville back in 2018! I went to college for business and worked in the corporate world and quickly found out that it was not my passion, so I started guiding tours! After guiding for almost a year, I was able to purchase the first franchise and become the owner of our Crystal River and The Chaz locations! When I took the jump in 2018, I was very excited, but I was also nervous – I soon realized that his was the best decision I have ever made! Not only do I love what I do, we also get to offer people an experience that will last a lifetime. There’s nothing better than that! If you are interest in opening a franchise, YOU SHOULD DO IT!”Austin Adkins
"My advice to anyone considering joining this adventure is to go for it! Justin’s commitment to his franchise owners and the support he continually extends has been instrumental in all of our collective success. Hard work and perseverance do pay off, and I would encourage those interested to push past their comfort zones and pursue their own dreams. The sense of accomplishment and fulfillment you experience after working countless hours towards achieving a goal you initially thought was so far is unmatched. So, if you’re willing to put in the effort, go for it, and enjoy the feeling of accomplishment that comes with achieving the level of success you strive for. The best part of all is the adventure is just beginning!”Samantha Heimgartner
"After the initial investment and setup, you can be pretty hands-off with the help of an admin. The overhead can be very low in the right location and the margins quite high! Most days, as an owner, I converse with my admin maybe once or twice and go about the rest of my day any way I please.”Karen Buzzi
