"My new business has continued to go from strength to strength over the past months and demand for my gardening services has been beyond what I would have thought to be possible. I am now in the process of scaling up with a second van as I am certain that the potential for growth for this business is immense. I have full confidence that the demand is there to support my growth ambitions. It is clear to me that the only factor that would constrain the growth of my business is my own capacity so I am taking steps to address that. Exciting times ahead!"

I have been blown away by the Ed's business opportunity. Before I joined, I had the sense that there was a lot of potential in growing an Ed's business. However, the reality has outstripped my expectations by a country mile! I've only been going a few months and already my business is truly flying. I'm already getting to the stage of not having enough capacity to meet the demand for my work. I know that I'm building a strong business that will go from strength to strength.

"Recently, I got to a stage in my life where it had become feasible to really change my career and my lifestyle. I knew the time was right to take the leap to run my own business. I wanted to do something I would find really fulfilling. Whilst I enjoyed my last role, it was definitely time for a change. My logic was, if it’s time for a change, then why not make it a bold one! Initially I considered striking out alone with an independent gardening business. However, once I had weighed everything up, I soon realised that my chances of success and business growth would be far better with an excellent franchise and strong brand propelling me. It’s one thing being able to mow your own lawn to a high standard, quite another to escalate that to an efficient and thriving garden services business. With Ed's I'll be running my business at full throttle a lot sooner."
