Why ADIs are switching
Save an estimated £10,000+/year in franchise fees
BSM franchise fees are estimated at £200-250/week. DrivePro costs from £16.66/month. That difference could mean over £10,000 a year more in your pocket - even after arranging your own car and insurance.
Build your own brand and reputation
BSM has been around since 1910 - but that brand equity belongs to them, not you. Go independent and build a reputation under your own name. Your pupils will follow you.
HMRC Making Tax Digital built in
BSM provides no tax tools. DrivePro connects directly to HMRC and files your quarterly Making Tax Digital returns in minutes. Track income, expenses, and mileage in one place.
How it works
Switch in 4 simple steps
Check your BSM contract
Review your franchise agreement for notice period and end date. BSM contracts typically require written notice. Plan your transition during this period.
Sign up to DrivePro
Create your account while serving your notice. 14-day free trial, no commitment. Configure your availability, rates, and booking page.
Arrange your own car and insurance
Source your own dual-control car and ADI insurance. Without the franchise markup, many instructors find better deals independently.
Transition your pupils
Tell your pupils you're going independent. Share your new DrivePro booking link. Pupils follow instructors they trust - the BSM badge matters less than you think.
