A short interview with Mark, a new franchise partner who has transitioned from a 30-year hospitality career into a test-and-tag business. The clip covers his early training (day two, first field day), positive experience with a franchise partner named Patrick, and his motivation for the lifestyle change and flexible hours.
So you're a test and tagger?
I'm a test and tagger, that's correct.
You're excited to start your own business?
Yeah, it's going to be good to get back home next week and really hit the ground running.
So we're on day two of training, is that right?
Yeah. So day two of training? Yeah. So first day in the field?
Yeah. And you're enjoying it?
Yeah, it's going really good. So, yeah, our franchise partner, Patrick has really looked after us. So, yeah, helping us put our theory into practice has been great. So before chessing and tagging, I've been hospitality for 30 years. Yeah. So that's what drew me to it as well. It's a bit of a lifestyle change to be able to choose the hours I want to work. It's going to be really good.
And why did you decide to choose the local guys over another franchise business?
So during my due diligence phase, I did take a look at a couple of other companies. I chose the local guys because they were the most responsive, the most warm. Through my question, through my questions and my research.
