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 Shoreham Driving Instructor Franchise?

Smart Drive UK offers only driving instructor franchise contracts that are beneficial to ADIs. The company offers a franchise agreement that ensures ADIs are in full control without any financial outlays. Franchisees with the company enjoy flexibility as they can elect to leave at any point in time.

Smart Drive UK does not hire multiple driving instructors in Shoreham unless demand for instructors requires more instructors. Most Driving Instructors in Shoreham that join the Smart Drive UK Franchise go on to remain with the company on a long-term basis. The company is fully committed to ensuring that ADIs are fully booked as quickly as possible, and there are guarantees on pupil numbers.

Why is a Driving Instructor Franchise in Shoreham a good idea?

All newly qualified driving instructors have to choose between signing up for a franchise or starting their own business soon after qualification. There are advantages to each route taken which further toughens the selection process. Choosing to run your own driving school comes with its own unique set of challenges. Recommendations and referrals are your best bet to getting new clients as an ADI. You have to build a positive reputation over a period of time before you can reap the benefits of recommendations.

Marketing, new website creation, and social media marketing are just some of the things you must do to bring in prospective students. Many ADIs do not have what it takes to draw new pupils in the early days of their driving school and make a profit, so for this reason many struggle. The Smart Drive UK Shoreham driving instructor franchise presents an opportunity for a full diary within weeks of becoming an ADI.

Choosing your Shoreham Driving Instructor Franchise

You have to ensure due diligence when picking a Shoreham Driving Instructor Franchise as you can’t afford to make any mistakes.

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 marketing clout of some of the more popular driving school companies can make them a strong option for many people, but in many cases, local businesses yield better results.

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. Contact Smart Drive UK today to start off your Shoreham driving instructor franchise career as they have ticked all the right boxes.

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.
