Interview With Franchisees Nick Daley and Mick Sherlock
WO: How did you both learn about the franchise opportunities that World Options offers?
ND: While working at UPS I knew various account managers who dealt with resellers and World Options always stood out, mainly due to the non-geographical franchise model.
MS: Previously I worked at UPS for several years and for a period I was the World Options account manager. It was this initial insight that sparked my interest to become a franchise owner.
WO: What was it that attracted you to want to buy a World Options franchise?
ND: With two very young children I wanted something that would allow me to work closer to home and not travel as much, also something which would allow me to build a residual income, to allow me enjoy more time with family.
MS: My business partner Nick Daley and I liked the World Options model and felt it was the right time for us to become business owners.
WO: What did you find the process of purchasing a World Options franchise to be like?
ND: The process was straightforward, being from the industry helped me understand the level of customer that we could potentially bring on, allowing me to see how quickly we could get a return on investment.
MS: The purchase was very straightforward. Nick dealt with a lot of the early negotiations and found Howard to be extremely knowledgeable.
