Revive!’s newest franchisee, Mohammed Hussain, owner of Revive! Blackpool was looking to escape the boundaries and restraints of his corporate role. With a young growing family at home he wanted more flexibility and to bring an increased balance to his life. Mo wanted to be able to do the school run every so often and spend more time with his wife and three children.
With a current Solicitors practice, a small but thriving property empire and a previous Tuition franchise, Mo is no stranger to small business ownership and was familiar with the hard work involved in not only establishing a new business, but growing it to a successful level. When researching management franchise opportunities he found Revive! was well recommended and following expanded research into the options available to him including sole business ownership and other franchise opportunities, it was the dramatic levels of support Revive! offered that really drew him to the brand.
In his previous tuition franchise, he found the brand took the money and left him, with no real support or training to help him succeed in his business. Through his research he found a lot of other brands would give him the vehicles but leave him to do the rest of the work to get his business going. With Revive! he was amazed by the incredible levels of support offered not only in training to first open his franchise, but also in recruiting his technicians, training them, and purchasing vans and equipment to support them through their own career journeys, Revive! really offered the full package.
Had Mo decided to start out on his own he felt he would have struggled to know where to start and wouldn’t be able to compete with established competitors like Revive!, who just do everything better. The benefit of working with Revive! means they are with him every step of the way, not only guiding him through the process but providing valuable support and brand recognition that helps him build a customer base in Blackpool
Mo found that the in person and online training provided by Revive! was excellent and really helped him start his business on the right foot, having the opportunity to come to Head Office gave him the chance to meet everyone who had helped him on his journey and learn about how they would be helping him to grow and build his business.
When first looking for a franchise business Mo was looking for one that could support his dramatic growth ambitions and really make a name for himself in the Blackpool area. Mo is targeting recruiting four technicians by the end of his first full year as Revive! Blackpool and is even open to purchasing a second territory in the future or building a Rapid repair centre.
When asked what advice he’d give for anyone interested in opening a franchise with Revive! Mo simply said: “Do your research and go for it!”
