Nigel Porter: Purchased his first No Letting Go Property Management Franchise in 2019

A successful career in retail enabled Nigel to live and work in Sweden and travel all over the world in his role within Finance Business Partnering for IKEA.

Nigel was considering his next career path and had been browsing the franchising world for 5 or 6 years, with the ambition to work for himself. (and prove that he can build a business and leave the corporate world behind.)

Nigel says “I explored a number of franchises within a range of sectors before selecting No Letting Go. Excellent customer service is a real passion, and in a service led industry it really does make a difference to the success of a business.  After meeting the Head Office team, I really felt their partnership approach was a good fit for me”.

The journey with No Letting Go Property Management Franchise

“Having bought my first territory towards the end of 2019, within 3 months I felt very confident about my training and ability to deliver good service.  Despite the pandemic hitting in 2020, I was able to bring on new clients and achieve good consistent growth throughout the year” explains Nigel.  "A neighbouring territory became available and Nigel decided it was a good time to purchase this in 2021".

How the franchise supports new franchisees

Many entrepreneurs look at the franchise option, so they can build a business of their own but want the backup that a franchise can provide.  Nigel provides an overview of his experience so far “In addition to supplementary training and guidance through my journey, the Head Office team are also very proactive in building client relationships.  The success of my business has been down to the local clients I have developed, but it is difficult to get a foothold with larger national clients, and this is where the franchisor has really assisted”.
