As an executive leader in charge of operations, marketing and franchise services, Charlie Simpson ensures a strong backbone - from systems to processes - is in place to support franchisee needs across the company. Simpson has been with Great Clips since 1999. During the past 30 years, he has worked directly with hundreds of individual franchisees both domestically and internationally. Prior to joining Great Clips, Simpson gained more than 20 years' experience performing various executive roles in franchise operations and franchise sales with The Southland Corporation, franchisor of 7-Eleven convenience stores. His unique perspective on franchising was not only developed on the corporate side, but from the franchisee perspective as well. He and his wife have owned and operated two separate franchise businesses, including two Great Clips salons in Dallas.
