Lighting maintenance



Kwiklite Franchise… a simple and successful concept that could change your life


A specialist local lighting maintenance franchise offering a professional service replacing all kinds of lamps, bulbs and tubes in the commercial, industrial, retail and business sector. Lighting is universal and essential maintenance is comparatively safe from economic downturn. Everyone needs it so the Kwiklitefranchise opportunity offers unlimited potential with repeat business and impressive earnings ability.
 
Established since 1999, our reputation has been built on excellence. We offer a rapid response and tailor-made solutions to lighting problems. Demand is growing and we need Kwiklite franchisees to expand our network to meet customers’ needs.
 
More and more companies are wishing to outsource lighting maintenance, not least because of health and safety issues. The customer can rely on a competent, trained Kwiklite engineer with the right equipment to do the job efficiently to the highest standards.
 
Concerned about selling your services? Don’t be! The Kwiklite marketing programme identifies the prospective customers in your area and aims to produce enquiries that lead to long-term repeat business. You’ll be surprised how quickly your customers get to know you.
 
 
The service

The message to the customer is simple and uncomplicated:
‘Your lights maintained for free. All you pay for are the parts used’

  • No call-out charge
  • No labour charge
  • No minimum charge
  • No annual contract


You make your money through very attractive gross profit margins achieved by the highly-advantageous wholesale prices enjoyed by our franchisees. Further details will be made available at the meeting stage.
 
Calling on the Kwiklite engineer means the customer doesn’t have to worry about health and safety issues.
 
 
The market
Kwiklite aims to build a nationwide network based on our unique ‘tried and tested’ processes proven through successful pilot schemes.
 
Lighting is universal so the potential is unlimited. Every business needs good lighting, inside and out, and those who have a substantial number of different types of light fitting especially value the Kwiklite service rather than trying to source and fit bulbs and lamps themselves.
 
Among these are car showrooms, petrol filling stations, shops, offices, factories, warehouses and many other types of industrial premises. We have developed a strong marketing plan with proven marketing methods including telemarketing, website, advertising and all support materials.

Training and Support
The Kwiklite promise
 
Training is a vital element of the Kwiklite franchise package and we provide a comprehensive programme to ensure success, adopting a partnership approach from day one.


 

  • Training – covers operations, administration, accounts, sales, marketing and customer care
  • Operations Manual based on ISO9001 quality standards
  • Territory – including a database of prime target customers ready to do business
  • Branded vehicle and uniform – image and reputation is all-important
  • On-going support, advice, marketing updates, coaching and regular meetings to develop your skills, monitor performance and help you build your franchise business


Who's Ideal for Us?
Who are we looking for?

  • This lighting maintenance franchise opportunity is very suitable for those from an engineering background i.e. sales and service engineers, telecoms engineers and managers, electricians and keen DIY people
  • Those who have a keen desire to be their own boss, with the ability to work into a multi van franchise, dramatically increasing your earnings potential. The ability to work from home keeps overheads low.
  • A positive attitude, self-belief and determination to succeed is more important than experience or qualifications
  • You should have a practical nature and be willing to run your business ‘hands-on’ and to a high standard
  • Previous experience in lighting or electrics is not necessary – nor is sales or marketing knowledge. If you have the right attitude, we can do the rest!
