Dean and Amy Wilson C
elebrating their first anniversary since joining Ovenclean – the UK’s longest-established and most successful domestic oven cleaning franchise –
husband-and-wife team Dean and Amy Wilson are thrilled they took the leap into self-employment. With their diary booked up one to two weeks in advance, doing three or four jobs per day, they are already benefitting from repeat customers and word-of-mouth recommendation!
Dean enjoyed his previous role working as part of a team under another franchise business owner, but could see no clear route for career progression and had always liked the idea of working for himself. He also knew there was a huge market for professional oven cleaners, so when he spotted the Ovenclean opportunity in the newspaper, it instantly appealed. “We went along to an open day and
were so impressed. Everything was extremely professional, it wasn’t at all pushy and it really put us at ease. We left
on a high and couldn’t wait to get going!” explains Dean. “My trainer was absolutely fantastic – we had a blast and still talk to each other regularly, even if it’s not about oven cleaning. The support from head office has also been amazing – everything Ovenclean promised, they’ve delivered! We couldn’t ask for more really.” In Dean’s opinion, the best thing about becoming an Ovenclean franchisee is the freedom. “Okay, I’m working six days per week at the moment, but that’s my choice. If I want to take some time off I can do so without having to ask permission! We’re also planning a family holiday, which we haven’t been able to do for a few years now, and I’m usually home from work before 5pm, so I can spend time with my son, which I never used to be able to do.” “Looking to the future, we’d like to grow the business enough to take on a second van and expand our territory further,” Dean concludes. “But for now we’re more than happy with how it’s going and really enjoying our new lifestyle.” n
