TFM spoke with Dublcheck's Elad Amir

Elad Amir was Dublcheck's national sales manager for four years and later ran a Dublcheck franchise for a year and a half with his wife.

What makes Dublcheck different?

It doesn’t matter if you haven't come froma strong sales or management background,Dublcheck will support and train you from thestart and continue to do so. The support networkis like a family.

What are your plans for the future now youhave left Dublcheck?

We have just completed the sale of our franchiseafter successfully running it for one and a halfyears. My wife and I will soon be departing on ourtrip around the world for the next few years. Thiswas our goal when we took on the franchise, andwith a lot of determination and hard work, wehave succeeded.

What has been your most memorable moment franchising with Dublcheck?

The day that we officially sold our business and did our last payroll. We realised how amazing it is to know that we were able to provide a regular workplace and income to over 25 employees. That made this journey feel very special.

What is it like to work with Dublcheck?

They are always friendly, approachable and happy to help. During the first year of your business each franchisee is assigned a mentor. This is extremely important because that mentor will support you as a franchisee through the toughest year of your business and make sure that you succeed.

What are the benefits of investing in a Dublcheck franchise?

For me, as an employee as well as a franchisee, the top three benefits to becoming a Dublcheck franchisee are:

• Unlike most franchisors, Dublcheck not only trains you in how to run your business successfully, but it also goes out and gets you business
• The support network: having a mentor and so many other franchisees that are willing to share their knowledge and experience is invaluable
• The track record: Dublcheck is a brand that has 23 years of success
