Glenn Cotter joined Expense Reduction Analysts in 2001 after a career in the Royal Air Force where he held the rank of squadron leader. He says: “I was really nervous as I had no background in procurement or accountancy which I thought was essential as a franchise owner. In fact, it couldn’t be further from the truth.

consultants not only deliver real tangible savings, but also bring long-term added value by managing the whole cost, purchase and supplier management process, typically sharing these costs on a 50/50 basis with their clients.

business forward, but I am never alone; the support, training and advice from Expense Reduction Analysts will always ensure that I have the best opportunity to make a success of my business.”
Glenn has found that many of his fellow franchisees demonstrate the same skills such as having the self discipline that is required to manage a business, the drive and motivation to generate income, as well as problem-solving abilities and people skills. “It is a really rewarding franchise,” he says. “I save large companies money, making a difference along the way – I never thought that I would be able to generate a six-figure income which I have been doing consistently. I guess that is the real strength of Expense Reduction Analysts – you are expertly trained to become a leading procurement consultant, with the ability to win business and deliver huge savings to your clients.
He concludes: “In summary, I really am enjoying the benefits of all my hard work, and I look forward to every day.” n
