Testimonials

When I decided to look into the franchise opportunity further, I spoke to Sandra and Tony initially and they pointed me directly to the existing franchisees for their opinions. It was most reassuring when they confirmed their faith in both the business and management and the support offered by the central office."

Alan McKeown, Spettro Belfast franchisee

“Spettro seems to be going places and getting a stronger hold in the market with every passing week. I am really looking forward to the challenge of managing both franchise areas and keeping very busy!”

Graham Calladine, Spettro Sheffield and Chesterfield & Mansfield franchisee

“We went along to the British Franchise Exhibition at the Birmingham NEC last October looking for an alternative business activity that offered variety and regular revenue to become involved in. Following our visit to the show we started to receive a franchise magazine called ‘Making Money” and in one issue we saw an advertisement for Spettro. We have always had an interest in property, DIY and architecture and realised that working with Spettro would make use of my project management skills and provide experience of construction and property maintenance which would eventually lead to a move into property restoration and development. Another key factor that we considered was that Spettro’s business activity is as recession proof as anything can be and it therefore looked to be a good proposition. Having investigated and visited the competition in the mean time, we met with the Directors, Tony Smith and Kevin England, at the beginning of June and by the end of the month, we’d signed up for the Derby area.”

Richard & Ashley Manning, Spettro Derby franchisees

“I had spent over a decade as MD of hairdressing salons but, over the years, have renovated, converted and extended properties which is more of a passion than just a hobby. When the opportunity arose for a career change I knew this time I would turn some part of my hobby into my job. I trained to become a home inspector but due to the decline in the housing market decided to look at other opportunities. I began looking at franchises and Spettro appeared to be ideal. After many months researching and meeting with their competitors, I met with the directors of Spettro. There and then the decision was made to become the forefront of Spettro Nottingham.”

Phillipa Collins, Spettro Nottingham franchisee

"I chose Spettro for several reasons, principal amongst which is that buildings insurance is a non discretionary expense (if you have a mortgage) and therefore would not be directly affected by general economic conditions, the territory assigned is large enough to be viable and Kevin and Tony’s approach to selling was not high pressure."

Mark Carey, Spettro Tunbridge Wells franchisee

"I researched and visited the various other companies in this marketplace but found that the experience, enthusiasm, marketing and people gave Spettro the edge.”

Martyn Boyle, Spettro Peterborough franchisee

"After six months into running the business I am more than happy with the performance of my franchise. The success and financial rewards are more than what I hoped for. With excellent help from all the team at head office the franchise has proved itself; that it works and most certainly will grow to become a national success."

Raza Ahmed, Spettro Bradford franchisee

“I met the Spettro team at the Manchester Franchise Exhibition, found out about buildings insurance claims management and enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere on the stand. I took their franchise pack away with me and decided to do some research.”

Kevin Edwards, Spettro Manchester franchisee

"I looked at the Spettro franchise over a year ago and in October 2007 I revisited it and decided to meet the team. I met with Tony, one of the Spettro Directors, and his enthusiasm after all these years in business was inspiring. Once I made the decision to commit to the Spettro franchise, the whole set-up process took just a few weeks including training. I looked at approximately 50 to 60 businesses travelling all round the country before making my choice. I found that the Spettro franchise was the best option for me with the best business opportunity."

Andrew P'ocsi, Spettro Brighton franchisee

"If I had the opportunity to turn back the clock after 6 months of trading as a Spettro franchisee, I would definitely do the same thing again!"
