This month, we’re delighted to shine the spotlight on Rob Reeves, our wonderful franchisee covering the Bristol area. Rob is a true gentleman – kind, thoughtful, and highly regarded by both his customers and colleagues alike. Here’s a little glimpse into the man behind the shutters…
What did you do before becoming a Just Shutters franchisee?
Before shutters, I worked in telecoms, helping large public sector organisations connect their sites and users to resources. It was interesting work, but very different to what I do now. These days, instead of connecting networks, I’m connecting with people — helping them transform their homes. It’s far more personal and incredibly rewarding.
What do you love most about your work?
The feeling you get when helping people improve their homes. Often customers say they’ve wanted shutters for a long time, and I feel very privileged to be part of their journey.
I never let a day go by without…
Porridge!
What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever been given?
Find a job you love, and you’ll never have to work a day in your life. I’ve truly found that with Just Shutters, it doesn’t feel like “work” but more like a rewarding way of life.
What advice would you give to someone considering becoming a franchisee?
Trust the system, it works! Be prepared to work hard, and you’ll find it becomes a ‘way of life’ you can truly enjoy.
Name five things you can’t live without.
My family, walks with my Border Collie, a good Sunday roast, holidays in the Highlands of Scotland and France, and my watercolour paint set.
We’re proud to have Rob as part of the Just Shutters family – a shining example of how rewarding and enjoyable life as a franchisee can be.
