Where the work comes from

How referrals work for a driving instructor

The warmest introductions don’t often come from online advertising. They come from businesses who regularly talk to learner drivers and nervous returning drivers – usually right at a 17th birthday or a failed test. This is why car dealers, insurance brokers and sixth-form schools are such strong allies for every driving instructor, in Ongar or anywhere in Essex.

Getting there from Ongar

Ongar is a historic market town with a long, independent High Street, the Epping Ongar heritage railway and, close by, Greensted’s church, said to be the oldest wooden church in the world.
Ongar is about 15 minutes from the meeting along the A128.
By train: Ongar has no mainline station, so most members drive in; Brentwood and Shenfield stations are the nearest.

We meet every Thursday between 6:30am and 8:30am, so it’s done before your working day starts. Each week you have 60 seconds or more to tell the room about your services. Between meetings, members book 1-2-1s to learn what each other is looking for.
