I’ve just moved down from Maryborough, Victoria to Melbourne.

I have completed the two week training course and I can honestly say that I have never learnt so much in my life. Prior to starting the two week training, I had some concerns due to my lack of electrical experience but after spending the first week with Frank and Gavin, I have to say I have learnt more than enough to make me feel competent and confident on anything in the test and tag world.

The goal setting and sales sessions with Jamie were fantastic. Jamie brought some great sales tools that were very specific to Test & Tag. By the way, loved the role plays.

Paul Kelly took us for the time management and communication sessions. Two very important areas that could be detrimental in any business if not explored as well as they were by Paul.

Jayne Fisher explained the most comprehensive Operations manual I’ve ever seen. A ‘real business book’.

I can honestly say I’m very excited and ready to take on whatever comes my way. A big thank you to all the team at Jim’s Test & Tag.

I’m married to Kathy and we have a little girl called Renne. She is 23 months old. I have been in the ACT for about 18 years. Plumber by trade for 17 of those years.

The training was very good. Different to what I expected.

I stayed in the Jim’s Big Brother house with some Jim’s hoods and had a great time.

Looking forward to hitting the beat in Canberra and enjoying my life as a Jim’s Test & Tag Franchisee.

My wife Susan, has been putting up with me for 13 years and we’ve just bought the Tea Tree Gully territory in Adelaide.

Big Darren Eddy introduced us to the business last year and it seemed like the perfect opportunity for us to improve our lifestyle and spend more time with our three children as we have both been working full time.

I’ve just finished the course, spending the two weeks in the Jim’s “Big Brother House” with Colin, Bruce and Paul and I can’t wait to hit the streets of Adelaide and get started.

I live in the lovely beachside suburb of Port Noarlunga, South Australia. I’m very lucky to have two healthy kids.

I’ve spent a lot of time and money travelling. Nine years ago I married Yolanda in Peru, South America.

I have a lot of experience in the electricity supply and other industries.

A few months ago I bumped into a Jim’s Test & Tag Franchisee at a mates place while downing a few cold ones. It was good timing as my then employer of eight years had exhausted my good naturedness.

I look forward to the opportunity to take much more control over my future in all aspects as a Franchisee.

I live at Rosebud on the Mornington Peninsular in Victoria. At the moment I run my own business, ‘Limousine-Hire Car Service’ based in Rosebud. This business was started from scratch in March 1989 and after 19 years I have decided to have change of lifestyle and look forward to the new challenge of a Jim’s Test & Tag business.

The limousine hire car business demands a 24 hours/7 days a week service, the phone rings at very odd times and the driving hours have become excessive.

In the hire car business, I had the pleasure of driving many of the prospective Jim’s franchisees and over time have taken a keen interest re the opportunities offered. Jim’s Test & Tag has now offered me an opportunity and I am up for this exciting challenge.

In relation to my personal life (not very exciting), outside work I enjoy playing men’s mixed competitive tennis. A couple of nights a week I spend time on the beach walking my Rottweiler dog (Bronson), BBQs with a few friends and a nice social drink.

In summing up, I look forward to meeting many more Jim’s Franchisees as we all move forward with this exciting, vibrant Franchise system.
