Why Choose Us?

We undestand the risk to yourself of commiting to a contract that has either no guarantee of providing a specifc number of pupils or some that promise to give you only 50 pupils per year (that’s less than one per week). That is why we have created a NO Risk Franchise that leaves you in control and no financial risk to you. We want you to join and stay with us not because the contract term says you must but because you want to, and you love what we do for you, and we will not recruit another driving Instructor in your area unless we have to turn away business because you are too busy and need support. We do not have any sales teams so don’t worry just our family members explaining what we do.

97% of Driving Instructors that started with us on our trial period decided to stay with us. The other 3% left due to personal circumstances and not because of the service we provided. Filling your diary quickly is our highest priority and we will GUARANTEE a minimum number of pupils that will be given to you.

Why Choose Smart Drive UK for Acocks-Green Driving Instructor Franchise?

Smart Drive UK does not support driving instructor franchise contracts that offer as low as one student per week and contracts without any guarantees. The company offers a franchise agreement that ensures ADIs are in full control without any financial outlays. Franchisees remain with Smart Drive UK out of their own volition.

Smart Drive UK franchisees never have to worry about extra competition from other franchisees because the company only takes on new instructors when student numbers dictate. Driving instructors in Acocks-Green stay with Smart Drive UK on a long-term basis due to their unique advantages. ADIs have full diaries with Smart Drive UK, and the company offers a guarantee on the minimum number of pupils per instructor.

Why is a Driving Instructor Franchise in Acocks-Green a good idea?

One of the decisions you have to make as a newly qualified instructor is whether to set up your own business as an independent instructor or to take on a driving instructor franchise. There are considerations to be made on each side of the divide, and the ultimate decision is down to you as the ADI. Different challenges face any newly qualified drivers that decides to start their own businesses. Recommendation is vital for any ADI seeking a decent supply of pupils. You have to build a positive reputation over a period of time before you can reap the benefits of recommendations.

You will have to participate in different forms of marketing, create a website and have some presence on social media to draw prospective driving school pupils. This is why many ADIs don’t find it easy in the first few months or years of starting their own driving school. This is where joining a franchise such as the Smart Drive UK Acocks-Green driving instructor franchise makes sense.

Choosing your Acocks-Green Driving Instructor Franchise

When you make the decision to join a driving instructor franchise in Acocks-Green, you have to carefully pick the right company.

The wrong choice of franchise will not only lead to stagnant or non-existent earnings, but you could also lose money from your pocket. The most popular driving schools can grab all the attention, but it is always important to check local options.

Local businesses already have a strong presence in your target location, making them the more likely option to go with for pupils in the area and nearby. A constant supply of driving school pupils is only second to the actual contract when it comes to a franchise agreement.

Smart Drive

You should seek reassurances on the supply of pupils to be certain about profitability as an ADI that is part of a franchise. If you are looking for a Acocks-Green driving instructor franchise that ticks all the right boxes, contact Smart Drive UK today.

FAQ’s

Can I take a break off after qualifying?

Some driving instructors build up their business slowly part-time alongside a full-time job to remove any risk financially. We will support you in your process to reach your goals.

Is full-time driving instruction of 40 hours or more per week a business with 40 pupils per week?

We encourage students to take lessons lasting and in 20 minutes (2 hours). 20 pupils are normally enough to be a full-time teacher with Smart Drive UK. In between lessons, travel time will be needed. We build multi-of learner drivers by encouraging block bookings.

Numbers of clients will Smart Drive UK give me?

Our advertising campaigns run throughout the year on a local and national basis positioning Smart Drive UK as a leader in local driving school provision. You can also promote your driving instructor business through our time-tested advice, resources, and marketing materials.

Is there a charge for supplying students?

You will not have to pay to get more students.

Will I be employed by Smart Drive UK?

No. Both independent driving schools and franchised driving instructors tend to be self-employed in the UK. Driving instructors have the benefit of being their boss.

You choose your work hours and organise your schedule to fit around your life. Driving instructors value the flexibility of the hours and the schedule; flexibility that is found in few other careers.

The nature of self-employed businesses is that the more you are willing to invest in terms of your time and energy the more you will get out in terms of financial rewards and job satisfaction.
