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.

What is the Smart Drive UK Penistone Driving Instructor Franchise Advantage?

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. They have made a name in the business by being one of the few companies where franchisees can leave when they want.

Unless required by student demand, Smart Drive UK will not hire more driving instructor franchisees in Penistone to compete with you. Most Driving Instructors in Penistone that join the Smart Drive UK Franchise go on to remain with the company on a long-term basis.

Why subscribe to a Driving Instructor Franchises in Penistone?

After becoming an approved driving instructor, becoming a driving instructor franchisee or starting up your own business are two main options available to you. The decision is a hard one as there are many benefits to each side of the argument. 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. Marketing and a positive reputation, both long-term factors, are needed to be able to gain recommendations.

You will need to spend money on marketing, create a website and build social media presence to effectively draw pupils.

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.
