Tootl Transport President Michelle Dacy & Steve Greenbaum on FranchiseInterviews

Did you miss our podcast with Tootl Transport Founder, President Michelle Dacy, and Steve Greenbaum, Board Member and Advisor?


I was excited to have this opportunity to interview Michelle and Steve for several reasons. My dad suffered from Parkinson’s disease. Getting him from Point A to Point B was complicated towards the end of this disease, so I think Tootl Transport is such an essential service. Next was my opportunity to interview Steve Greenbaum. I have been following Steve’s career for a long time, and this was the first time I got to interview Steve. Tootl Transport has a strong advisory board. Besides Steve, other members include Brad Fishman, Debra Vilchis, and Jeff Matthews.


As the nation’s first special needs non-emergency transportation concept, Tootl is committed to providing individuals with temporary or permanent mobility and cognitive challenges with the reliable and comfortable rides they need. The brand has seen success with its two corporate locations in Milwaukee and Chicago and is looking to open 20 locations in 2023, choosing to focus on streamlining operations in its first year of franchising. Tootl approaches their business, employees, and customers through TREK, which stands for their core values of Trust, Respect, Empathy, and Kindness. With a low-risk, low-investment business model, Tootl is the perfect opportunity for entrepreneurs looking to break into the franchising space while providing a necessary and meaningful service to the underserved members of their community.
