From what I can remember about them ( a while ago inquired with them and Home James) they are more expensive to buy into than Home James..

They help you get work to a certain degree, but the thing I don't like is that they expect you to use the particular products they promote and you pay lots of fees..

But it may have changed... ring them and look into it carefully.. once you have all the information pay the small fee and get a good solicitor to look over the paperwork (A solicitor advised me against joining Home James)...

I can certainly vouch for the Victorian VIP guys. I was twice winner of best ED at Tickford family day (XR Club of Vic Judging) and 3rd in Au ute category after detailing by VIP.
Owner of Victorian franchise is a Ford nut and owner of a tough Black BA GTP.

Best in the business if you ask me. I know the VIC owner, and he's a perfectionist. I can PM his details if you wanna go further?

They're each independent franchisees so while I'm sure some are fine I'm equally sure some are not so. Good luck.
