F
ormer soldier, Andy Darby, is a real ChipsAway success story. Thanks to ChipsAway he has achieved his ambitions; he has a great lifestyle, drives a sports car and estimates his take-
home earnings are around three times more than his salary would have been had he stayed in the army.
Andy launched his ‘man and a van’ business 11 years ago and today heads up a multi-van operation spanning three territories, with a ChipsAway CarCare Centre (fixed-base workshop) and a team of trained technicians providing high- quality automotive paintwork repairs to a growing customer base. “Two years on from launching my ChipsAway CarCare Centre, I’m really happy with the way my business has developed,” Andy confirms. “Now I can process many more vehicles during the day and undertake larger repairs, so turnover has jumped substantially. Of course, I have more overheads too, but
the underlying trend is certainly onwards and upwards!” Andy’s business has gone from strength
to strength and demand is accelerating thanks to increased investment in marketing from the franchisor, including a successful national TV advertising campaign generating over 100,000 repair enquiries in the first half of 2013 alone. Repair leads to the network have increased in excess of 60 per cent over the past three years and, with further extensive marketing activity scheduled, this looks set to continue. It is this support that has helped franchisees like Andy grow their businesses and, since joining ChipsAway, Andy says he has never looked back! “I am certain I chose the best franchise! Being my own boss is great, the rewards are there if you’re prepared to work hard and the satisfaction of seeing your business become increasingly successful is fantastic.” ChipsAway is one of the most successful automotive franchises in the
UK with around 300 specialists operating nationwide, providing high quality ‘on- the-spot’ repairs to minor car body work damage, restoring paintwork quickly and cost effectively. n
