‘Yes, it can be daunting and a little scary at first, but it is absolutely rewarding…’
“Before joining Lockforce, I worked as a Class 1 Lorry Driver. While I enjoyed the job, the long hours meant my work-life balance was almost non-existent. Prior to that, I spent 16 years working for Sky, but I reached a point where I knew something needed to change. The idea of being my own boss intrigued me, so I started exploring my options.
During my search, Lockforce stood out among other franchise opportunities. The more I researched, the more I saw the benefits of their model and support system. Starting any business comes with risks, but with Lockforce, those risks are reduced thanks to their comprehensive support. This allowed me to focus on growing my business with confidence.
The training was intense but enjoyable, and while it was daunting to go out on my first jobs alone, I never felt unsupported. The hardest part in the beginning was trusting the process when things were quiet, but I learned to use that time wisely—practicing skills and promoting my services.
For anyone considering making the leap, my advice is simple: do it. I only wish I had done it years ago! Yes, it can be daunting and a little scary at first, but it is absolutely rewarding.”
