Established Autovaletdirect franchise allows for better lifestyle

Name:  Mr Richard Keen 

Location:  Swindon

Why I chose franchising

I chose franchising as I thought it would give me ongoing training and support. As it is an established franchise and being professional, I would be more likely to build up a good customer base quicker than being on my own. 

What I did before taking up a franchise

I have been an HGV Driver for 26 years. I decided to make the change as I wanted a better way of life for my family and to be able to enjoy the job I am doing. 

How I raised the finance

Through a loan and personal savings. 

The training and support I receive from my franchisor

I have received excellent support from my franchisor he is always available to answer any queries I may have and is very supportive and motivating. The training I have had with another franchisee has also been excellent and very informative. 

The challenges I have faced

No real challenges yet as have only just started, the biggest challenge so far has been making the decision to go ahead. 

My advice to someone thinking of buying their first franchise

Research and look at competition in own area. It is also important to have the support of your family. 

My plans for the future

To ensure customers are always happy with the job I have done and to be able to make it a viable business.
