He worked for the Preston franchisee for 3 years before deciding to invest in his own territory. \u201cI had seen the Preston franchise go from strength to strength and wanted a piece of the action\u201d explained Josh. The Preston franchise had grown to over \u00a3300k turnover in 4 years with demand continuing to grow.<\/p>\n<p>Josh said \u201cI was concerned about running my own business as I didn&#8217;t know enough about the marketing, administration and accounting\u201d. I needn&#8217;t have worried because Access4Lofts set up my business for me and the systems we use for administration mean I can concentrate on the hands on work and making money. I can even send invoices and check my accounts from my mobile phone!!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was never worried about the demand having worked for 3 years inthe business. I know that Access4Lofts have the advertising and sales side of things running very professionally as I have seen it in operation over the past few years.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Josh has recently employed a member of staff to keep up with demand and has recently become the first Access4Lofts franchisee to run more than one area, after purchasing the nearby Liverpool North territory.<\/p>\n<p>Well done Josh, keep up the great work!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We&#8217;re very proud of Josh Norgate, owner of the Access4Lofts Blackpool franchise as Which?
