Interest in the brand has already been logged for the franchise that will provide full training on every aspect of the taxi business with sales, marketing and accounts being handled from the head office in Wellingborough.
Simply Cabs are the first to install Telematics in the county in all vehicles which will allow them to monitor driving patterns and G Force from their control centre.
Their price structuring will be based on distance travelled within the county with fixed pricing in place to all major airports and locations around the country.
In order to attract new drivers to the industry a ‘lease to own scheme’ has been implemented to offer new drivers the chance to lease a car of their choice in keeping with the companies brand requirements. Instead of paying rent they will be buying the vehicle over a fixed term.
A back to work scheme has also been put in place to encourage anybody not in full time employment to receive assistance in obtaining their private hire licence and joining the ‘lease to own’ scheme.
All new drivers will have their bookkeeping done for them by the company through a new app which lists all the work they have done.
The company will be publishing their growth through social media to attract new drivers and franchisees with regular blogs and podcasts and a 12 month documentary is in the pipeline.
