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 Castle-Cary 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. They are one of the few driving instructor franchise providers where ADIs are in control of what happens with their contracts. The company has made a name in ensuring ADIs remain with them by choice instead of being tied down by a contract.

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. It is no surprise that most approved driving instructor franchisees in Castle-Cary stay with the company for long periods. The company is devoted to filling the diaries of ADIs under their franchise and offers a guarantee to provide a minimum number of pupils based on reliable estimates.

Why subscribe to a Driving Instructor Franchises in Castle-Cary?

Starting your own business or signing up for a franchise are the two main routes available to any newly qualified driving instructor. There are positives to both sides of the argument, so the option you go for at the end of the day will be dependent on your particular situation. To run your own driving school business, there is a set of challenges that must be navigated. For every ADI, the key to a steady supply of pupils is maintaining a healthy base of satisfied pupils that can do word of mouth marketing. Recommendations will only come after you have built a positive reputation over a period of time.

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. 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. Becoming a part of a franchise like the Smart Drive UK Castle-Cary driving instructor franchise gives ADIs the opportunity to start earning money immediately while gradually building their own business.

Choosing the Castle-Cary Driving Instructor Franchise to work with

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

The wrong choice of franchise will not only lead to stagnant or non-existent earnings, but you could also lose money from your pocket. It is easy to get engrossed with some of the well-known names, but some of the more local names can yield better results.

The primary reason for this is that local companies have been around your target area and must have built a reputation with local people. The franchise contract is the first factor considered when settling for a driving instructor franchise agreement, but a steady supply of pupils should be a close second.

Smart Drive

Success as an ADI is impossible without a full diary weekly, so you need to seek guarantees where possible. If you are looking for a Castle-Cary 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.
