A Daily Mirror feature from the 10th June 2010, one of our exclusive distributors…
Jeremy Smith heard about a new puncture prevention treatment, he realised there was a hole in the market… and he was the man to fill it!
Puncturesafe UK uses a special polymer to give a permanent seal to a tyre to prevent punctures.
“I was a director in a direct sales business but Puncturesafe offered a chance to get into a business I believed in and saw plenty of potential for,” said Jeremy, 38, from Richmond, North York.
He became one of the first Puncturesafe franchisees when he bought the distribution rights for East Yorkshire in April, and is now busy building up business across the North of England. “It’s a very simple product and the firm offered excellent technical support to back me up. I’m building up a good client base in car and motorcycle dealers, garages, and caravan and motorhome business,” he said. Investing in Puncturesafe takes an initial £3,500 to buy territorial rights, but anyone thinking of setting up as a distributor will need extra cash to cover setting up costs of any normal business.
However, there’s no need to buy expensive premises as the key is to be able to go out and sell the treatment. “My background in sales has helped me tremendously,” said Jeremy, who reckons someone working hard at the business could earn around £60,000 in a year.
He said one of the system’s key advantages is that there is nothing else like it on the market – so there is no direct competition to worry about. “But the key is to know how to organise yourself and be prepared to work hard,” he said. “The company provides the technical support, but you have to put the work in.”
