JOINING Redstones™

GOING IT TOTALLY ALONE

COST

We have invested thousands into making YOUR set-up as cheap as possible!

You will have to make all your own investment in developing your own business from scratch with none of the savings we can pass on because we are rolling out many units across the UK.

PROBABILITY?!

REDSTONES will work with you to get you up and running as soon as possible and help you every step of the way – so as soon as you decide to join us you WILL definitely get your own business!

Will you really take the risk of setting up your own business completely alone and without any support?

TURNOVER

Higher turnover than working for yourself because: REDSTONES has years of experience that we give you to immediately market better, target more of the right clients, use our central sales office for a more professional approach, offer a wider range of services, and etc., etc. AND you will enjoy cross-national referrals and national accounts as the national network develops.

Lower turnover than through REDSTONES as you will have to learn how to approach the market from scratch – and alone. And then you will be competing as just another small sole trader with no national back up.

PROFIT

More profit because we have designed systems and operating principles that are more efficient and require less input of resources.

Less profit because you have to set up your own infrastructure, which enjoys no economies of scale and will have to bare the cost of trial and error as you learn the business without help

SET UP

Cheaper, Quicker and Less Painful, because REDSTONES provides everything you need to start trading from day one in a turnkey package. So you can hit the market the day it is delivered!

Expensive, Slower and More Painful because you will have to find all your equipment and suppliers yourself – and unlike us – can’t buy as part of a national network’s economies, have to trust suppliers you don’t know and install systems you haven’t tested.

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY

The systems we have developed gives you the most extensive range of IT and support services available in the market today – whilst being designed to be easy to use.

You could buy an off-the-shelf computer system, but these tend to be quite limited. It would not be economical for you to spend the time and money we have spent on our system if it were just for one office.

SECTOR KNOWLEDGE

Because REDSTONES is rolling out nationally, we can keep you up to date with national trends in the property industry and our landlords’ and clients’ demands – so you will always be able to meet them.

It is sometimes difficult to keep up with trends to best understand your clients’ needs whilst you are concentrating on your own business.

BRAND

We offer a developing national brand to help you open doors and trade on our existing good reputation from the day you start!

You will have to build your own brand from scratch – not easy for a sole trader without support.

NATIONAL NETWORK

As we develop our national network, you will get access to referred business across the nation and be able to serve developing national accounts – as well as being backed up by a powerful head office infrastructure.

You will not be part of a national network and will have to compete with those that are – like the REDSTONES unit that opens next to you!

AUTONOMY

Although you will be part of our network, the business is still your own and you will be completely free to develop it yourself with more support from us than interference.

You will be completely autonomous but without support.

SUPPORT

It is in our interest that you are successful, so you can bank on the best 24-hour support to help you make the most of every opportunity and help you through every difficulty. So you are not taking all the risks of day to day business alone!

You have no support to help and protect you.

MARKETING

As part of REDSTONES, you will benefit from national advertising, local marketing initiatives and continuing marketing advice and support. Because we operate a national advertising fund, we also have more buying power so our spend creates more impact.

All your marketing will be local and be expensive if you are to create the same impact that our national network can.

COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE

With REDSTONES, you will be able to offer your clients a nationally expanding quality service, with a top professional approach and customer service that a national network provides more investment into than any single small competitor can.

Alone, you will be one of thousands of independent letting agents, trying to carve out a small share of the pie against bigger national competition (such as REDSTONES!)
