Second franchise owner reaches £100k turnover in 16 months

21st March 2011

"When I first saw the BCR Associates business model I was attracted by the fact that the business did not charge clients anything" - Kim Harris, BCR Associates franchisee

BCR Associates is delighted to announce that its second franchise owner has hit a turnover of more than £100,000 in just 16 months.

After 35 years in fashion retail Kim Harris changed career path by becoming a BCR Associates franchise owner. Sixteen months later he has become the second franchise owner to join the 100 club.

As a BCR Associates franchise owner Kim is part of one of the most considered cost reduction companies, helping businesses realise profits by identifying savings in their business spend. When asked about his journey to date Kim said:

“When I first saw the BCR Associates business model I was attracted by the fact that the business did not charge clients anything and the customer received 100% of the savings realised. This seemed like an excellent selling point and that has proved to be the case. We have been very busy building up our client base and have realised some huge savings for our clients. For example, a private school in the South East asked us to look at ways of saving money on their electricity bill and we realised a saving of £67,240. Another example is a London club for business professionals where we saved them over half of their £33,500 annual gas bill (which equated to 54%).

“The future is very bright for us. We now have a strong client base and no matter what the markets do I have a stable residual income. For example, should electricity prices rocket, even if I am unable to realise any savings for my customer, I will still earn an income from supplier commission fees. Meanwhile my customer doesn’t have to pay me for the review and has peace of mind that they are still on the best contract for their business.”

BCR Associates Director Chris Battin said: “Kim was the second franchise owner to come on board and I am delighted to see him join the 100 club. As a member of the 100 club and in recognition of his success, Kim has received a luxury weekend break in Cornwall.

We know our business model is strong and it is great to have this confirmed when our franchise owners realise the successes we predicted for them at the start.”
