Kendlebell have over 20 offices throughout the UK and one in Ireland. We are the single largest provider of Personal Telephone Answering services in the UK. Indeed the key to our success is the highly PERSONAL level of service that we provide. Our competitors are typically Call Centres so they accommodate all their staff in one building. The more clients they get the harder it becomes for them to continue to provide each and every one of their clients with the same personal level of service that we do. Kendlebell overcome this problem by setting up small offices where the atmosphere is more friendly and the staff have an opportunity to get to know you. The more successful we are the more offices we open and therefore we will always be able to allocate a team of just two or three PA's to look after you.
Own your own collection agency! In today's down economy, the collection industry is booming and Glacial Star Group, Inc. is offering a collection franchise opportunity. At a price equivalent to a mere fraction of what one would pay to start their own agency and become licensed nationwide, a GSG franchisee gains nationwide licensing, a full compliance department (to answer issues such as Attorney General or Better Business Bureau complaints), all necessary documents (including NDA's, contingency and purchasing contracts, and CNR Attorney reviewed letters) and full access to ICEware Corp.'s ICEware Collection Software, Hosted Collection Services and Hosted IT support. ICEware is based on Zero-Footprint Technology, meaning there is no need for in-house servers or other hardware. It is browser-based as well; thus uses only limited resources and works in an 'on demand' environment. Also, ICEware Corp. acts as an outsourced IT department for GSG franchisees; quickly and efficiently handling unlimited updates, reporting, customization and training at no additional cost, and eliminating the need for an in-house IT department. As an added note, ICEware can be integrated with third party vendors (including dialers, letter vendors, skip tracers and credit bureaus) at no additional cost. GSG also offers an Exchange Model which makes it possible for a company or individual to manage multiple remote offices anywhere in the world from a centralized location. GSG will put you in contact with their pre-approved exchange teams that work only on commission; meaning you don't pay unless they collect. Welcome to the first 'out-of-the-box' collection agency franchise opportunity coupled with the world's first designer collection software!
