The former motor trade worker from Surrey was already familiar with Autosmart, a leading supplier of professional vehicle cleaning products to the trade, when he came on board six years ago.

He said: “I had thought about working for myself for a while, but was reluctant to take the risk with a very young family.

When an established Autosmart franchise came up for sale, it was too good an opportunity to miss.

“Being part of a franchise network means that the risks are minimal, and there is a lot of repeat business. Many of my customers have been with me for years.”

He explains that although he works hard, his quality of life is better and he has more time to spend with his family.

“I would recommend it to anyone who wants to start their own business, especially those who like vehicles or motor sports and don’t want to sit in an office all day. If you are prepared to work hard, the business potential is excellent,” he added.
