Who's Ideal for Us
All Metro Rod franchisees are motivated individuals with the desire to succeed. Ideally, you will have had experience in managing people and be financially astute. You will also need good inter-personal skills and sales & marketing ability. For new franchise areas your role within your business will start in a ‘hands on’ capacity, taking the role of a service engineer. However, as your business develops, or for a franchise re-sale, you will need to take a more managerial role, focussing on providing a high level of customer service and developing your own business.
You can begin operating your business from home but the objective is to eventually move with your team to small industrial premises.
