It’s just me! That is the beauty of a window tinting business. You have minimal overheads, and after you are trained and confident all you need to be successful in this field is drive, the tools provided in this course, the roll of film provided, and some clients.
I took my own window tint training course 10 years back. I was looking for a way to work for myself with low start up cost, low overheads and a large return on investment. It didn’t take long to discover the potential of window tinting. My course was great. Although slightly dated now, I did leave without feeling fully confident. I learnt on some pretty easy cars, there were some techniques I didn’t know, and fundamentally I learnt a great deal myself. My promise to you, is when you complete this course, not only will you have had the training I now 10 years in wish I had got, but you will get a physical record of the entire course (we all know 3 days worth of knowledge will need refreshing from time to time).
You will get a full tool belt, put together by myself of all the tools I use on a day to day basis, and to put this into perspective. I still 10 years on have (among a few others now) my first ever Bluemax squeegee and handle. A roll of film of your choice from our reccomended supplier, who you will be put in touch with. Who are going to be working along side me with this to get you all the film you need, and a price which is more than competitive in the industry.
Now my story is after training, I practised on friends cars, I ran into a few issues, used my aftercare. But after a few weeks I had myself a great little unit, enough for cars, office, upstairs storage, from here I grew the brand. I progressed to a much larger premises, which had room for 4 cars, 4 offices which looked great online. But after re-assessing why I started, it was for the time freedom (will be covered in the course) and keeping overheads down. I spend alot of my time working with our dealerships (again, covered in the course) but I took a step back, cut my costs and moved invest my money elsewhere. I had to try the big fancy workshop! but for me, I want to prove to you guys all you need in minimal. a workshop for 1-2 cars is perfect. and the ROI on the tinting will give you all the freedom you need to diversify your time/money/lifestyle.
Over the years I have built great relationships with all the local garages, which will bring you income year round, local customers and surrounding areas, I have worked on the railway network, tinted planes, commercial buildings, residential buildings, and schools. Between all this there is more than enough tinting work to go around, and how I market to these clients will all be included.
See you on day 1!
