Best of all is helping them out on an urgent job; you feel part of their team \u2013 it\u2019s very rewarding!<\/p>\n<h4>How have you found the technical training?<\/h4>\n<p>The training is thorough. You learn how glass behaves under pressure and in extreme heats and you carry out all the repair processes too \u2013 this is when you understand why our equipment is so advanced, compared to others.<\/p>\n<h4>What assistance do the Franchise Central Support Team provide?<\/h4>\n<p>Behind scenes, the girls manage various areas of the business so we can focus on our clients. We don\u2019t need to worry about chasing invoices or checking credit limits or sending TOBs \u2013 it\u2019s like having your own PA!<\/p>\n<h4>How has Screen Rescue performed coming out of Lockdown?<\/h4>\n<p>We are busier than ever! Clients want to save money where they can, and because our repair solutions reduce their windscreen and glass replacement costs, it\u2019s a \u2018win, win\u2019 situation.\u00a0 They make significant savings and I\u2019m run ragged!<\/p>\n<h4>What is the worst thing about your role?<\/h4>\n<p>The cold winters can be harsh \u2013 they make you appreciate the warmer days! The extreme summer heat and sub-zero temperatures can affect how the glass reacts, so the training you get is very useful.<\/p>\n<h4>Tell us the short-term and long-term plans for your business?<\/h4>\n<p>I\u2019m proud I\u2019m doing extremely well. Before Covid19 I was maintaining an annual turnover of \u00a360k. Now, I\u2019m growing the business further and will soon take on an apprentice technician \u2013 my goal is to reach the \u00a375k benchmark first.<\/p>\n<h4>What advice would you give to anyone considering a Screen Rescue franchise?<\/h4>\n<p>This is an exciting franchise with great support and training and a brilliant bank approved recurring revenues business model.
