Importantly, no kitchen industry experience is required. The franchisees’ average annual sales are now £600,000, while some showrooms take orders worth more than £1million a year. And with net profit margins of 15 to 20 per cent, becoming a Dream Doors franchisee could be the perfect career move for anyone looking to earn a six-figure salary. Dream Doors hosts regular discovery days at its headquarters in Gosport, Hampshire, to give potential investors a taste of how the business operates. Head of franchise recruitment Alex Waite


says: “We’re looking for anyone who’s seriously interested in earning a high income, and who’s excited about partnering with such a long-established brand as Dream Doors. Visits to our offices allow potential new franchisees to get a behind-the-scenes look at how we can take people with no experience in kitchens or sales and help them build million- pound businesses.” There are a handful of existing Dream Doors showrooms on the market, with mature franchisees looking to retire or see a return on their investment. There are close to 40 territories still available for new franchisees throughout the UK.


Dream Doors prides itself on its elite


network of hard-working franchisees – people with the professionalism and determination


to ensure their business thrives. As such, every application is taken very seriously, and potential franchisees are closely assessed and interviewed before being assigned their own exclusive territory. New Dream Doors franchisees receive a


comprehensive 13-week induction training period, including nine days of intensive training at the company’s headquarters. In addition, they are given three days’ supplier training and one day of Institute of Occupational Safety and Health training. This enhanced training programme ensures new franchisees gain the knowledge and experience to excel from the very start. Coming from a corporate background, Kev


Groves, franchisee for Teesside, was prepared for a steep learning curve. But, he says, the training provided by Dream Doors set him in good stead for his new venture. “The training was an excellent mix of theory


and practical exercises shared between two venues close to one another – a training venue and a working showroom belonging to one of the existing franchise owners. Both were well equipped, comfortable and modern, and proved to be ideal learning environments. “I can truly say that the support we have


received has been outstanding – not only at the outset, but also ongoing once you are up and running. Each member of staff we’ve met


is very knowledgeable, professional and always willing to help you in any area of the business. “There is also a great sense of humour among the team; they all love to have fun while they work, which suits us fine – we feel that we fit straight in to the Dream Doors family.” As well as the new and improved training


course, franchisees are also assigned a dedicated business development manager (BDM), who helps oversee their operations, teaches them the business model and assists in any way needed. Exeter franchisee Mike Maughan-Brown


says: “The support I have had from my BDM so far has been outstanding. He has been with me every week. He has supported me in every key process that I have had to go through and has given me invaluable advice. I also received excellent advice and support from the other BDMs during the training process, and I have had head office support in setting up bank accounts, securing a business loan and even overcoming the problem of vehicle finance.” With award-winning marketing strategies


and a constant increase in franchisees and local showrooms, it is clear to see how Dream Doors earns its title as the UK’s leading kitchen makeover franchise.
