"I was hoping to improve my work/life balance, and I realised I would need to be self-employed. I looked at potential franchises on and off for two or three years. Clear Brew ticked all the boxes: sensible initial investment, low overheads meaning great margins, regular and repeated business to ensure a predictable cash flow, and excellent advice and support always readily available. In less than six months I was making a comfortable living as an owner/operator, and with the size of my territory I will be able to grow the business and further increase my income by taking on staff. I now have time to enjoy life!"
