Exclusive Interview: Mark Milburn with Justin Kaiser of Stardust Solar Franchise

As the demand for renewable energy surges, Stardust Solar is emerging as a standout franchise brand poised for massive growth. With a mission to combine profit with purpose, the company has developed a turnkey solar installation franchise system that empowers entrepreneurs to join the clean energy movement. In this exclusive interview, Mark Milburn, Founder of Franchise Marketing Solutions, sits down with Justin Kaiser, Franchise Expansion & Capital Strategist for Stardust Solar, to discuss the brand’s rapid rise, unique positioning, and vision for scaling across North America.

Milburn: Justin, thanks for joining me today. Let’s start with the big picture — what makes Stardust Solar such an exciting franchise opportunity?

Kaiser: Thanks, Mark. At its core, Stardust Solar is about creating a business that does well by doing good. We’re building one of North America’s premier solar installation franchise systems, helping families and businesses lower their energy bills while making a real impact on the planet. The solar industry is projected to surpass $223 billion globally by 2026, and we see massive growth potential for motivated franchise partners who want to be part of that future.

Milburn: That’s powerful. What do you think sets Stardust Solar apart from other clean energy or home services franchises?

Kaiser: I’d say it’s a combination of mission and model. On the mission side, we’re passionate about renewable energy and sustainability. On the model side, Stardust offers a turnkey franchise system that simplifies everything — from training and installation processes to customer acquisition. We’re not just handing someone a playbook; we’re walking with them every step of the way to make sure they succeed.

Milburn: You play a key role in guiding the brand’s expansion. Can you walk us through what your role looks like day to day?

Kaiser: Absolutely. My focus is making sure Stardust Solar is positioned for sustainable, scalable growth. That means helping franchisees access financing, creating structures that lower barriers to entry, and working with investors who believe in the clean energy space. In short, it’s about making sure our partners have the support and resources they need to thrive while positioning the brand for hundreds of locations across North America in the years ahead.

Milburn: Stardust Solar clearly has an ambitious vision. How does leadership reinforce that drive to scale?

Kaiser: Our Founder and CEO, Mark Tadros, often says, “We’re not just building a company, we’re building a movement.” That vision drives everything we do. We’re not satisfied with being a niche player — the goal is to make solar mainstream, and we believe franchising is the fastest, smartest way to get there.

Milburn: That’s inspiring. Finally, for entrepreneurs who are considering joining, what would you say to someone thinking about becoming a Stardust Solar franchisee?

Kaiser: If you’re looking for a business that’s both profitable and purposeful, this is it. You’ll be part of an industry that’s growing exponentially, backed by a team that’s fully invested in your success. Most importantly, you’ll know every install you complete is helping create a cleaner, more sustainable future. It’s rare to find a franchise that lets you earn well and do good at the same time — Stardust Solar delivers both.

Milburn: Justin, thanks for sharing your insights today. Stardust Solar is clearly a brand to watch, and I’m excited to see how fast it grows in the coming years.

Kaiser: Thank you, Mark. We’re just getting started.
