Franchise Success Stories

That's the motto of franchise owner Susan Hume who opened the Martin & Co franchise in Dundee earlier this year. 

Susan had always wanted to run her own business and the franchising opportunity with Martin & Co gave her just that. However the flexibility the franchise business model offered here was top of her list. Susan's daughter is the British swimming champion for 100m and 200m freestyle and is training very hard for the 2012 Olympics. Running her own business, Susan can support her daughter with her early morning training sessions and accompany her on important competitions. 

No stranger to property, Susan has worked extensively in lettings and has been a landlord herself, giving her a good understanding of landlord expectations. She insists that all her staff have the same high level of expertise and customer service levels. 

"Selecting Martin & Co was the easy bit!" commented Susan (having been employed at Martin & Co Fife as a senior negotiator prior to becoming a franchise owner).

"I  have seen Martin & Co grow as a brand and felt that buying into a proven franchise model would give me  the additional specialist support I needed to run my own lettings business. Dundee has a large student population and significant regeneration has taken place. The lettings market and future  in this area is certainly buoyant! she added."
