‘There is plenty of opportunity in the market place’

22 October 2014

North Shields-based Bill Rodgers joined the Auditel Cost Management Franchise in September. He had spent much of his career in senior sales and marketing roles in the specialist packaging industry. For the past fourteen years, he was self-employed as the owner of two highly successful businesses in packaging and property development.

Asked why he joined Auditel, Bill said: “Having run my own business, I was looking for an opportunity that gave me the "owner" feel, perhaps being part of a bigger organisation with a team. No-one is successful without a good team behind them. Auditel really fits the bill in that respect. Their business model suits my requirement to be self-employed, with good earnings potential and the back support and systems of a successful company. There is plenty of opportunity in the marketplace!”

Bill said that the training had been excellent. “Very detailed, extremely well structured and the content was of a high standard. They take you up and down through the process, but at the end of the week you come out thinking "we've got some good things to talk to people about here". I was really, really impressed and feel confident to get out into the market place.”

Having worked for companies that are profitable and growing or in turnaround mode, Bill says that he has first-hand knowledge of the vital importance of effective cost management.

“The experience gained through running my own business means that I understand the difficulties of balancing cost management with growth and still achieve some sort of work-life balance. My aim with Auditel is to provide clients with the highest level of personal service, while delivering effective, timely and practical advice to improve business performance.”

Matt Sidwell, Auditel UK and Ireland’s Network Development Director, comments: “Like Bill, there are a number of previous business owners who have joined our network. By investing in an Auditel cost management franchise, they are able to put their existing skills and experience to very good use.
