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.

Why subscribe to a Driving Instructor Franchises in Wigton?

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. The final decisions will come down to you the ADI as each side of the divide has advantages. Choosing to run your own driving school comes with its own unique set of challenges. ADIs that have a steady supply of pupils know that recommendations are vital. Marketing and a positive reputation, both long-term factors, are needed to be able to gain recommendations.

Getting the right number of pupils requires building a website, engaging potential students on social media and investing in various forms of marketing. For many new ADIs, earning a full-time income is important. Hence they are unable to cope with the early pressure of sourcing pupils while spreading the word about their new driving school. The main way to start earning immediately is to participate in a franchise such as the Smart Drive UK Wigton driving instructor franchise.

Choosing the Wigton Driving Instructor Franchise to work with

Your decision on the driving instructor franchise in Wigton to go with must not be made lightly.

When you choose the wrong franchise, you will be tied to a lengthy contract which could cost you time and money. 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. Aside from the contract, the frequency of pupil supply is the next thing you should be concerned about.

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.
