“First class – one of the very best training courses that I have ever attended. It is well structured and focused on enabling me to start building my business. It has given me the confidence to get out and sign clients!”

Allen Mulford

These remarks refer to Auditel, the UK and Ireland’s favourite cost, purchase and supplier management franchise.

They were expressed by Allen Mulford, who was a Programme Manager for a Software Development Consultant. Last month, he was part of their latest intake of franchisees.

Asked why he made his choice, Allen said: “Auditel offers a service that delivers genuine added-value to its clients. This will enable me to build a successful business for the long term.”

Edward Brewer, Auditel’s Franchise Development Director, comments: “Allen’s decision to join us coincided with yet another award for the company. We were nominated in March for Best Franchisee Marketing Support by the FMA.

Auditel has also just been shortlisted for the prestigious HSBC Franchisee Support Award with only four other finalists. “We are very proud to have been recognised for the third consecutive year with this kind of award.”

As Cathryn Hayes, Head of Franchising, HSBC, said: “What these businesses have in common is the implementation of innovative practices that are driving industry standards. The HSBC Franchisee Support Award recognises outstanding franchisors for the strategic direction and support they offer their network of franchisees. Their stories are an inspiration to businesses of all sizes across the UK!”

Edward continues: “For any management professional looking to run their own business for the first time, franchising has become an increasingly attractive option. The latest NatWest/bfa survey reveals that nine out of 10 franchisees remain profitable. The Auditel franchise is a fantastic opportunity and many of our franchisees enjoy a lifestyle they had only dreamed about. Why not book your place at one of our Free Discovery Seminars? Talk to our Franchise Support Team and ask as many questions as you like. We shall enjoy meeting you!”
