When it comes to sales calls, the recruitment team at Driver Hire’s Crewe franchise are leaders.
And we’re not just talking locally; this is on a national scale.
They recently collected Driver Hire’s National Sales & Recruitment winners’ award for topping the second (of three) 8-week competitions. “It’s all part of an annual incentive across the whole of the Driver Hire network designed to help each of us grow our business,” says joint franchisee, Lee Statham. “We were also the winners in the first round and, with one round to come in the autumn, we’re going to be pushing hard to be the first office to score a hat-trick!”
Each competition begins with a single National Sales day, where the whole of Driver Hire’s 100 plus office network competes to see how many appointments they can book in a single day. Live TV broadcasts keep competitors up to date with the scores. Points are then earned throughout the following 8 weeks when appointments are turned into business, resulting in office growth.
Earlier this year, Lee, who’d previously been the office manager, was offered the opportunity to take a joint stake in the business. It’s clearly paid off. Along with competition success, turnover is currently well ahead of the same time last year. “I invested my own money in the business and that does make a massive difference to the passion and approach you bring to your job. Of course, our success to date is a team effort. When it comes to sales, we’ve stuck to the basics; making the calls, following up and then doing face-to-face visits.”
Along with a trophy, the Driver Hire Crewe team chose a £2000 voucher prize.
Commenting on Crewe’s success, Graham Duckworth, Driver Hire’s Franchise Sales Director said: “National sales competitions are another example of the comprehensive support package we offer to help franchisees develop their business and maximise its potential. Crewe are to be congratulated on their success.”
