Beaverscreens®

Company Background

We are a member of W.R.E.M.S.A (Windscreen Repair Equipment Manufacturers & Suppliers Association) which is recognized by the British standard institute, and was instrumental in the setting up of BSAU242 which is the British standard for windscreen repairs. As such our equipment, materials and contracts have to be of the highest quality and must meet all relevant British standard requirements currently in force.

In 1991 we were granted a loan by the P.Y.B.T (Princes youth Business Trust). This was not only the start of BEAVERSCREENS but also the beginning of a mutually beneficial relationship with the P. Y. B. T.

A direct result of which was an award for THE BEST SMALL BUSINESS in our region, which was presented by H.R.H Prince of Wales in person along with a cheque for five hundred pounds.

Paul Beaver is now a board member for the Leicester branch of the trust. Playing an active role as a business adviser both before and after prospective applicants have established their
businesses.

We have also been awarded the title of, THE MOST ENTERPRISING YOUNG BUSINESS IN THE MIDLANDS. Which was presented by the Thomson Local Directories along with £1000 of free advertising in their Directories.

All of which is good news for any beaverscreen operator!


The Franchises

Automotive Glass Repair Franchise

The first franchise is the Automotive Glass Repair franchise which is involved in repairing damaged and chipped wind screens. The Proven Technology of Beaverscreens can repair the vast majority of any windscreen damage from bull's-eyes and combination breaks, to short cracks and star breaks. Each repair takes approximately twenty minutes and is permanent once complete. This restores both optical clarity and strength by injecting a specially formulated resin into the breaks and setting it with UV light .
The removal of scratches caused by wiper blades has also become far more common place due to the MOT rules

Dashboard/Trim Repair Franchise

A Dashboard or internal trim on a car can be damaged in many ways. The most common of which is by the fitting and subsequent removal of car phones. This leaves small holes in the trim/dashboard which can be caused by the fixing of the hand set cradle.
Our equipment can easily repair any such damage to the trim/dashboard restoring both the texture and colour of the trim. Any cracks or rips can be simply repaired. Worn leather can be easily re-coloured without having to remove the item.

Bumper repairs are easy to find, most cars currently have plastic bumpers which at one time or another will get scuffed or cracked. Our equipment and methods allow you to repair a large range of quite severe damage to a very high standard restoring strength colour and texture to the damaged item .

The Market For The Franchises

We have a marketing plan which will help you pinpoint key customers with large fleets and repeat sales.

The Franchise

We have the lowest start up cost of any windscreen or trim repair business opportunity. Other companies charge up to 8 times more and don't have as good a return.
The cost of our consumables are among the lowest available any where in the UK and our equipment allows you to use less of them, to achieve a higher quality repair, in less time than any other equipment currently available.
Our aim is to keep your essential running costs to a minimum which will increase your profitability and ease your cash flow.

Training

During your training we will cover all aspects of the business in great detail, including the methods for all relevant types of repair sales and canvassing techniques and the simplest most
efficient book keeping and accounts methods. All of which is covered in great detail in our operations manual a copy of which is issued to you on your first day of training.

The manual answers all operational questions including all of the above and provides an invaluable reference tool once you leave the training centre. We update the manual whenever new methods or procedures are introduced guaranteeing your ability to stay one step a head of the competition.

Each training course is moulded around your specific requirements concentrating on any weak areas until you are confident in all aspects of the business. to do this we may need to extend the training period, if this does become necessary all it will cost you is the additional accommodation expenses.(The cost of the initial franchise purchase will NOT increase.)

At least part of the time that you spend with us during your training will be spent on the road with one of our local operators completing as many "live" repairs as possible and observing the way in which an experienced operator approaches the clients. This reduces the risk of you making a drastic mistake and increases your self confidence. Which will in its self help you
to impress any potential client.

Fees

The Franchises cost £13,995 plus VAT or £19,995 if both franchises are taken together.

Turnover

During your first year of trading your turnover is unlikely to reach its full potential. However, even during this initial period of finding and developing a wide and solid client base, on which your business will flourish, it is possible to earn a better than average wage.

In fact once you have proven the quality of your work to enough clients you will be able to turnover between £300 and £700 plus VAT each week which is only an average of between three and six repairs a day, five days a week. Making you an approximate weekly gross profit of between £260.00 & £651.00, this does not take into account anything other than your material costs. This level of turnover can be easily achieved within your first month if you follow the marketing plan that.we provide.

Most repairs take between 30 and 90 minutes to complete and depending on the type of repair are charged out at between £20 and £50 each.
.
By the end of the second year, your turnover should never fall below £3000.00 per month, £700.00 per week, which is less than 6 single repairs a day five days a week. The figures given above are based on an average retail price of £25.00 a repair.

However if your turnover is constantly low your team leader will be on hand to help with retraining, canvassing, sales advise, customer satisfaction reports, advise on advertising and mail shots, etc.

We want you to succeed as much as you do and we will put as much effort into helping you as you put into helping yourself.

If you work hard and fight for business either franchise can turnover in excess of £52,000 per annum a £1000.00 a week.
