Preservation for Motorcars

Franchise Model System for SME Business:

The creator has been involved in the industry since September 2019, or for more than half a decade. Learning the industry, understanding the Business people within and the Regions within the UK. He was lucky to be involved in other Automotive Niche services such as: Vehicle repairs, Servicing, Car preparation (detailing), Vehicle recovery and Transport - allowing him to gain valuable experience from an SME view. 

Most are 1-3 person operations, with the most suitable in our opinion situated on private estates. However, many companies are situated in the traditional warehouse setting (industrial estate), and some even have underground parking locations.

*Please note that AI is not used for content creation*

These people who own estates tend to have moved into vehicle storage as a means to utilise their property to make a sound income for retirement. Here, a purchase would be costly. However, to find a company struggling financially that can be anything, Automotive, as such, but with storage capacity, would perhaps be a feasible option. 

Above all else, it may be simpler to just start from scratch with some car storage barns - click here.

  1. Some successful Estates may be valued above £2million.
  2. Companies in administration are more likely to be rent payers. The business would be available for next to nothing in many situations.
  3. Some larger Automotive companies may carry a lot of debt. A purchase could be complicated, especially if it involves many staff members. But if in administration, it's worth us taking a look.
  4. An ideal place to find, in our opinion, is somewhere discreet and out in the countryside. Check the facilities page here.   

The rate to investigate a business that is in administration is currently £150 per hour. A package deal as above will provide a minimum of 20 Hours of consultancy and advice.

Only 1 Company per Niche, per Region:

The franchise model was learned during the creator's early career, in a consultancy role for a well-known retail outlet. At its peak, the franchise held 246 franchisees in the UK and around 16 franchisees in the EU.  He was hired for almost two years to oversee a US Investment Management Buyout to the tune of £18m.

He was involved with the reconciliation of the company's sales ledger's which included monthly management fees, adversity levy and stock purchases. This entailed him communicating extensively with all suppliers & retail store owner's building a repour with them directly to understand their business operations and needs. He also gained vast knowledge from sitting in HQ, which included the other department heads. 

His Franchise model creates a lot of value because the above franchise set-up fee request was £35,000.00. They did need to sign a lease and pay for a store (physical location), which obviously makes things more expensive.

He witnessed how much money most of these people lost, and the high levels of personal debt they incurred - he did not and does not agree with these unethical Business models. 

  • His car storage franchise idea does not operate like this.
  • Rather, a system to reduce a company's overall Marketing costs.
  • Whilst providing them with expert guidance from his turnaround days.
  • Creative developments work that is beneficial to all parties.

Business side:

  • Understanding of daily Operations for planning, execution.
  • Knowledge of disputes, therefore, quick resolution should this be needed.
  • Get the money in quickly from suppliers, should it be Commercial.
  • Ability to ensure a small Business is not overloaded with work.
  • Aim to minimize stress for all - follow process, makes things efficient.

To continue the story..

The creator deployed HQ Business Development managers to franchisee stores that were struggling. Resources were optimised accordingly, and done so in a fair manner. Some store owners welcomed the support, and the BDMs helped them develop skills they perhaps lacked, whilst others were perhaps unmotivated and unable to benefit from HQ resources. 

The total volume of balances the creator managed monthly was £1.4-£1.8m. This was the monthly turnover of operations for Head Office, including franchise fees and stock purchases. The total company turnover was approximately £40m a year.

He oversaw the replacement of two Managing Directors, the initial one left due to the sudden change of business direction. A new Finance Director who actually hired the creator when she first joined the company. A new Head of Operations, who obtained valuable insights from the creator due to his in-depth franchisee knowledge at that time. And finally, a new Marketing Director.

The story above demonstrates the Creator's organisational responsibility, awareness, integral communications and solid decision-making skills. He feels these are worthy attributes when deciding how to grow your Business - click here

He speaks to people in the trade and is known in the Industry now for operating his unique Car Storage Company. However, many of these company owners are not suitable for this Business concept nor the Commercial opportunities we bring.
