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 go with a Smart Drive UK Biddulph Driving Instructor Franchise?

Smart Drive UK’s driving instructor franchise contracts are carefully formulated to make sure ADIs are not mandated to stick to contracts offering less than one student a week. The company offers a franchise agreement that ensures ADIs are in full control without any financial outlays. 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 Biddulph to compete with you. The company’s brand of driving instructor franchise means that they have many satisfied franchisees without any reasons to look elsewhere. To further show their commitment towards providing a steady stream of income for driving instructors, the company offers a guarantee on pupil numbers.

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

After becoming an approved driving instructor, becoming a driving instructor franchisee or starting up your own business are two main options available to you. There are advantages to each route taken which further toughens the selection process. To run your own driving school business, there is a set of challenges that must be navigated. ADIs that have a steady supply of pupils know that recommendations are vital. This requires strong marketing and a stellar reputation, which takes time to develop.

Getting the right number of pupils requires building a website, engaging potential students on social media and investing in various forms of marketing. Most ADIs do not have what it takes to draw new pupils and still stay in profit in their first few years. Hence they struggle. The main way to start earning immediately is to participate in a franchise such as the Smart Drive UK Biddulph driving instructor franchise.

Choosing your Biddulph Driving Instructor Franchise

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

Making a mistake with the selection process could mean losing time and money. The most popular driving schools can grab all the attention, but it is always important to check local options.

Pupils in the area will want to go with a local company that has been around for a while instead of a big name company with offices far away. After your franchise agreement, the steady supply of work is the next important factor when picking a driving instructor franchise.

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 Biddulph 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.
