Why Dent-Technique is franchising
Dent-Technique is franchising because we want to share our success. We know we offer franchisees a viable business with many opportunities in an expanding marketplace. We are seeking highly motivated individuals who share our vision, embrace our quality standards and are determined to succeed.
If you enjoy meeting people, you like cars and prefer plenty of variety in your work, then a Dent-Technique franchise might be just the opportunity you are looking for.
The market
The number of cars on our roads is increasing every year. With millions of vehicles driving around every day, it's inevitable that some will get damaged. People who are unlucky enough to get a dent in their cars - especially brand new ones - want it put right immediately. Motorists and car dealers expect an excellent job, at a reasonable price. They want the repair done by a trained specialist and at the appointed time.
In short, customers are seeking a superior and convenient service. That is what we provide - our reliability has been the key to our success.
We have identified huge and growing potential, with many lucrative opportunities throughout the whole sector, serving both the motor trade and the general public.
What is franchising?
The term "Franchising" has been used to describe many different forms of business relationships, including licensing, distributor and agency arrangements. The more popular use of the term has arisen from the development of what is called "business format franchising".
Business format franchising is the granting of a license by one person (the franchisor) to another (the franchisee), which entitles the franchisee to trade under the trade mark/trade name of the franchisor and to make use of an entire package, comprising all the elements necessary to establish a previously untrained person in the business and to run it with continual assistance on a predetermined basis.
The principle is simple - some companies choose to grow, not by developing in the conventional way, but by granting a licence to others to sell their product or service. There are clear advantages to this:
You don't have to come up with a new idea - someone else has had it, and tested it too!
Larger, well-established franchise operations will often have national advertising campaigns and a solid trading name.
Good franchisors, such as Dent-Technique, will offer comprehensive training programmes in all aspects of the running the business.
If aware that you are running a franchise, customers will also understand that you will be offering the best possible value for money and service - although you run your "own show", you are part of a much larger organisation.
Who is in control?
Each business outlet is owned and operated by the franchisee. However, the franchisor retains control over the way in which products and services are marketed and sold, and controls the quality and standards of the business.
What are the cost implications?
The franchisor will receive an initial fee from the franchisee, payable at the outset, together with ongoing management service fees. In return, the franchisor has an obligation to support the franchise network with training, product development, advertising, promotional activities and with a specialist range of management services.
The Dent-Technique brand
Dent-Technique is a well established brand and the name is synonymous with quality. Our customers know that when they call Dent-Technique they will be greeted by a professional, smart and highly skilled technician. We want to build on this reputation with a nationwide network of similarly motivated people, which is why we are investing in a range of marketing activities that will promote the brand and our services to a growing customer base.
