Franchising With Inland Andalucia - an opportunity not just for native English speakers
Franchising With Inland Andalucia - an opportunity not just for native English speakers
Alcala La Real partner, Alejandro spent years working alongside real estate franchise Inland Andalucia. Seeing first-hand the success and benefits, Alejandro gives us his thoughts on why becoming a franchisee is such a great opportunity - not only for native English speakers, but also for those returning home to Spain.
I took over Alcala la Real office in October, after working alongside Inland Andalucía for many years. Previously a lawyer, I had grown to know the company well whilst dealing with them on behalf of my clients who were purchasing properties. I liked the way they worked and when an opportunity arose within the company, I decided to pursue it.
Although I have not had any previous real estate experience, I understood the industry from another angle, and I knew how the business worked. I greatly respected the CEO Graham Govier and liked how they operated; they are extremely efficient and organised.
I am a native Spanish speaker but am very comfortable speaking English- it’s my second language. I think this combination of skills is useful for the business. This is a great opportunity for Spanish returners or those who have a good command of English. Starting a business in Spain isn’t easy, but a franchise in a successful company is a positive choice.
I’ve seen the company become bigger and bigger with each passing year, and it’s a great time to join in their success. I think their achievements partly come from the
respectful and efficient relationship between management and employees – everything works well, and any issues are easily resolved. Employees are looked after, which means they can concentrate on business development. The team operates more like a family.
I’m very excited about my new venture; growing my business each day, building upon my industry experience, and depending upon myself and my good team to make a success of it. I’m enjoying the change of direction and can’t wait to see what 2020 brings.
