Almost five years after joining the UK’s #1 kitchen makeover company, Mark Holmes continues to see his take home profits rise.
The former Royal Mail manager has been running Dream Doors Chesterfield with his wife Rachael ever since he took redundancy from his last role. Mark and Rachael reinvested their money in buying a Dream Doors franchise and haven’t looked back since.
“I left the Royal Mail with the intention of going into franchising. I didn’t want to drift back into what I was doing before; I wanted to do something totally different and run my own business.
“Dream Doors was something that interested me from the get-go. The fact that Rachael and I could do this together meant we could really see it working for us.
We recently renewed our franchise agreement because five years is not a long time in franchising. We’ve been building up our customer base and getting to know the area we work in really well for the last five years, so it makes sense to do at least another five.
“We’ve built up momentum in our business and we’re fully expecting to make more in our second five-year term than in the first five years. Our sales figures are up 30 per cent on what they were this time last year – it would be crazy to stop now.”
