Why Aspray?

If you are looking to take control of your life by becoming your own boss, our proven business model and unrivalled support structure could help you on your way. Here are some great reasons to choose Aspray:

It is difficult to imagine a better time to join the insurance industry in a claims handling capacity as there is regular controversy around how insurance claims are handled. The Aspray service is a much needed support for many policyholders.

Aspray believe the “directly authorised” rather than “appointed representative” route with regards to FCA authorisation is the most appropriate route for a claims management company to take, and Aspray have been directly authorised since their inception in 2005

Being directly authorised has allowed Aspray to request and then gain permission to hold clients’ money (2014). Such permission can have a positive impact on the claims management process, and also, in lots of cases, cash flow for franchisees.

Not only have Aspray won awards within the construction & franchise world, but are finalists of the Claims excellence awards 2 years running, meaning they are highly regarded & well respected within the Insurance Industry.

Aspray are full members of the BFA. The British Franchise Association is the voluntary self-regulatory body for the UK franchise sector. Franchise businesses must pass a standards-based accreditation before they can become a full BFA member, this can give prospective franchisees peace of mind.

Outstanding Support

All franchisees attend a comprehensive induction course at Aspray’s head office. In addition, franchisees will register to take the British Damage Management Association Technician (BDMA Tech) qualification. This qualification allows franchisees to gain much valuable claims handling knowledge from a technical and practical point of view.

Practical knowledge is enhanced and underpinned by training modules which help give the franchisees the ability to fully understand the UK regulatory framework, and the technical aspects of the insurance industry, and in particular the comprehension of the hard work needed.

Potential franchisees often worry about how they will build their business, Aspray have this area well covered. The sales and marketing team use the marketing fund and other resources to promote the company’s services regionally and nationally.

A local marketing strategy and brief action plan is waiting for all franchisees and prior to induction they will meet with a senior member of our sales and marketing team to ensure a robust launch strategy is in place for their region. There is much ongoing support from the sales and marketing team to help franchisees grow their business.

Applicants from all backgrounds will be considered, provided they can demonstrate the skills required to perform the role, and a "self-employed" mentality. Aspray are committed to continually training and developing the Franchise network support.
