On average, our Instructors earn £36 per hour! You’re in charge of how much you choose to charge for lessons and there’s a number of factors which can influence lesson prices. The more you work, the more you earn. In our franchise, you have the flexibility to decide how many hours you want to work.
If you work 30 hours per week, over the course of 48 weeks in the year, you can earn upwards of £50,000!
You do not have to pay for Instructor insurance as a Bill Plant Driving School franchisee. The only thing that needs to be paid for is your weekly franchise fee.
You pay a fixed weekly fee that does not fluctuate, so you know exactly when and how much you’re going to be paying, week on week. In return, we’ll cover your insurance, as well as servicing and maintenance/repair costs.
There’s no certain amount of hours that you must work as a franchisee, you’re in control! If you choose to work 35 hours one week, and 12 hours the next, that’s completely okay. You can enjoy flexible working hours so that you’re not forced into sacrificing any out-of-work commitments.
We provide you with marketing materials to promote your services to your local area. In addition, we also help source pupils for you with our nationwide marketing support if you’re struggling to find students in your area.
More than 60% of our franchisees are fully booked, with plenty more reporting busy diaries!
