And so, over to Chris to hear his story\u2026

The Background to Ed’s Newest Business Owner…<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWell, I certainly can\u2019t claim to be new to gardening. I have been a groundsman for years and I love the outdoors life. Lawns are the business and I love to maintain them to a very high standard It is so rewarding to see the difference you can make to them with some care. I\u2019ve always enjoyed my job but what I didn\u2019t enjoy so much was the structure of it. On many days mowing, I\u2019ve daydreamed about just what it would be like to be running my own show. I always loved the idea of running my own gardening business. But I also felt that, whilst I am very good at actually delivering the work, I am not so confident about my ability to run a good business from the start. That\u2019s really what brought me to the idea of joining a successful franchise business.”
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Considering My Options…<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI looked at a range of franchises. Initially I thought my skill set might be better suited to a lawncare franchise. However, when I looked more closely, I felt it was all a bit too narrow and I loved the variation that the Ed\u2019s business model offered.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAnd then there was the feeling I got about Ed\u2019s as a business.\u201d
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ready for the challenge?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\u201d I\u2019m really excited. I know from all my years of groundsman experience when spring is just on the point of springing. It is my intention to power through my training and get up and running to make the very most of the year ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI\u2019ve already discussed the content of my training package. I love the idea that it is tailored to my own needs and not a \u2018one size fits all\u2019 approach. I suspect I will need a bit more training in recording my finances than mowing a lawn well!\u201d
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Any advice to anyone considering Ed\u2019s?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI would say that a franchise route is a great vehicle to overcoming your fear of the unknown. I would be fazed by the idea of starting my own independent gardening business if I thought about the earnings figures I am targeting. However, with Ed\u2019s it all feels very achievable. I know for a fact other business owners who joined a year or so ago are doing brilliantly. That fills me with confidence about my own future.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We wish Chris all the best with his brand new business and look forward to helping him turn his business plan into reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
