Company Overviews

About Kendlebell

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.

About Supporting Strategies

Starting a franchise such as Supporting Strategies can be incredibly exciting and rewarding, but leaving your corporate job can be a scary proposition. For many people looking into franchise ownership, leaving is the right long term decision.
Just take the time to make sure buying a franchise is right for you before you make the leap. It could be hard to get your old corporate life back once you leave that world to pursue independent business ownership for a year or two.
