BCR Associates Franchise Opportunities  
 
Founded in 2004, BusinessSwitch.co.uk is owned by Business Cost Reduction (BCR) Associates Limited and is now one of the leading business cost reduction companies in the UK. 
 
2009 saw the launch of the BCR Associates franchise opportunity and already we are now successfully rolling out the franchise model across the UK.  
 
If you are considering a change of career or looking for an alternative range of business services to compliment your existing business then a BCR Associates business cost reduction franchise could just be for you.  
 
 
 
Background to the Business Cost Reduction Franchise  
 
The consultants behind BCR Associates Limited founded the company to enable them to bring together their skills and experience in identifying cost savings to businesses on the full range of essential business services such as electricity, gas, telecoms, water, insurance, finance, vehicle leasing and staff. 
 
The business has grown on a combination of website marketing and establishing key strategic business partnerships with accountants, banks and business consultants and other professional advisors to enable them to provide our services as an ‘added-value’ offering to their clients and contacts.  
 
With the liberalisation of the utilities markets in recent years the opportunities for cost savings are there to be found, but few business people have the time or knowledge of how to find the best deal. BCR Associates fills that gap.  
 
 
Why are we offering a franchise?  
 
BCR Associates is located in the South West of England but the opportunities are national and we therefore want to increase our coverage to serve our clients needs.  
We believe the levels of personal commitment from franchisees are often higher than employees, giving better customer service and greater drive to increase market share.  
It enables us to achieve a more rapid expansion across the country than if we were to set up ‘branches’ on our own. 
 
What is in it for you?  
All new business ventures are uncertain. The principal advantage of opting for a franchise rather than a cold start is that the uncertainties may be reduced, specifically because you are buying in to and investing in your own future, your own skills and abilities with the sure knowledge of:  
Proven business model  
Established brand and reputation  
Lead distribution  
Access to our business partnerships and partnership building programme  
Training  
Back office support  
 
The rewards to you are directly related to the level of commitment you put in. We are here to help: not replace your efforts; but to augment them and help you to build a strong business. 
 
 
 
How will it work?  
 
It is in both our interests for your franchise to be a success. We will therefore provide you with the support you need to get the business up and running. Building your business though is down to you. We will help you through lead distribution, internet marketing and our partnership building programme.  
You will build your client base in your region and ensure that their requirements are being met.  
We will deal with centralised back office and marketing functions for you. This frees your time to concentrate on winning clients and recruiting additional business partnerships.  
BCR Associates operates a national ‘0800’ line for clients and franchisees. 
 
 
What do you need now?  
 
You will of course need to set up your office functions, a home office is acceptable. As a minimum you will need;  
• Personal computer/laptop  
• Broadband connection and modem  
• Printer  
• Fax machine/Photocopier  
• Mobile telephone

And of course, BCR Associates will be able to find you the best deal for your broadband, mobile and car leasing requirements!
