Preservation of Motorcars
Company Vision:
The John Rose Group established in 2019 has, and is developing a Network of Car Storage Companies each with their own unique style and offering.
Micro-enterprises are organisations with less than 9 employees which turn-over less than £2million per year. They are actually the lifeblood of all modern societies around the world, yet in comparison to large corporations receive less help in times of recession.
National Enterprise of Micro-enterprises.
- 100% Independent & Hidden.
- Only a client knows where a Storage Facility is.
- Not even the Creator's know this information, as we don't need to.
Initially for the Secure storage of vehicles.
However the requirement for complimentary Automotive services is desired to cater client prospect demand.
Prior to January 2024.
- Clients, in particular those who own or wish to own multiple cars, require more variety.
- Clients wish to move cars around to cater their leisure, business and travel needs.
- Many vehicle storage facilities are becoming full.
Clients are beginning to buy more vehicles and neither wish to drive them daily, nor allow unwanted attention at their home or work place. Other clients have just one, usually sentimental, and enjoy the pleasure of taking it out for a drive every so often.
January 2025 onwards.
- Correction - many units have space - increased competition.
- Many units have space in wintertime the busiest period.
Preservation For Motorcars:
As many know, the car industry is going through change with regulation being introduced to limit the use of combustion engines and a push for consumers to transfer to electric vehicles. Motoring enthusiasts would never see their cherished vehicles disappear, meaning the need to preserve, has never been greater.
The Storage Industry for Motorcars is booming, along with Drive Clubs and other Motoring Enthusiast Meet-ups.
Strategic Update as of June 2025
It's an interesting story is the one below. He never did classic car storage - we gave him this Business alternative.
Further more: the below focuses on the development of Vision and Brand identity.
- What is it that Partners benefit from?
- What do you get?
Note: the creator does not use AI for content creation.
What really makes things interesting is, after all this, he still had the audacity to advise us that his whole company was for sale. He must believe he'd be suitable to receive a nice generous reward after cheating us, and disrespecting us from the start after we assist his company for (life) survival.
He did call us immediately to apologize and simply advised that due to his struggle he had no choice but to do what he did - not have any honorability.
All part of the learning experience of what business people in the industry can be like was our main purpose. Understand the industry and the people within it. And this knowledge (pattern is learned) is then factored into the larger commercial contracts which was part of the vision from the beginning.
We know the patterns, which means, when the management of operations is required including that of reporting to the supplier - we are able to confidently achieve the desired output for them using past corporate knowledge plus this newly acquired Industry knowledge.
Note: the overseas clientele was not part of the initial vision - it's just been requested for us to see if we can help.
This is work in progress because the investment needed by the creator is high. He's invested almost a decade so far into the development of overseas relationships.
Resolution:
- We aim to have facilities in all regions of the United Kingdom. It's hugely beneficial in terms of Marketing cost savings to you.
- We will focus on assisting genuine companies who wish to be apart of the Network.
- The creator has the knowledge to operate at levels of up to £100m turnover a year.
- This includes overseeing and guiding operational and financial activities such as National contracts and Overseas clientele.
- Of course our integral focus is, and will always be the many hundreds of local car storage customers.
The creator has the ability to train and guide Network members to install process where required thereby ensuring the safety and fulfillment of client orders.
- This past half decade has been a great success due to the acquisition of knowledge and he would like to thank past clients - he wishes them all well.
- He would like to thank all current clients who are still onboard and thanks them for their support and belief in this vision.
Turnaround:
The creator used to specialize in the turnaround of large companies within multiple Industries.
Thus far indirectly turned around three smaller outfits, all Automotive including that of the above example in fairness. A Racing team/Supercar mechanic company and the final one a simple car storage facility who were sat empty for months when they first opened.
Less than £250k in turnover apart from the Racing company which was in-between £250-£350k in turnover per annum.
- Apply skills not used in a decade.
- Apply Marketing strategy for these Businesses to bring new clients in. This was not his skill-base when turning around firms in the past.
- The larger company benefited from the inception of internal process for better efficiency.
- Profits that included their other income streams that attach to car storage.
Note: everyone of the three examples above turned into a thief and stole performance commissions. One even stole processes to actually make their own company efficient.
Established very quickly income for struggling Business.
International Positive Influence:
The below is an example of the creator's ever developing connections.
He is in a family home over in Asia - one of the most wealthiest powerful men in the East. Artifacts of war - the grandma of the house uses the room for pray time interestingly.
In respects of this: at the moment connections cover 4 continents. And by influence, this is not Instagram.
This is very valuable for International Positive Influence.
He does spend time overseas mainly himself developing these connections and relationships with the recent expansion idea (May 2025) of;
- To encourage these people to come over to the UK.
- Spend time here perhaps over the summer period only.
- To engage them in our proud Classic Car Heritage.
We may have drowsy weather sometimes but the UK has always been able to throw a good party. London in particular is still a hub for overseas clientele, so we aim to build and offer them experiences too.
We will use the Industry and the great people within to show them that we do have; great culture, polite people, strong Business ethics, and a wide variety of excitement offerings.
This latest idea came about due to interest from the Middle-east.
We tried to accommodate their request but unfortunately this year were unable to deliver. All because the units contacted didn't like the idea of our company making a 15% commission on a service created from thin air, that would in effect pay them treble their normal rate in what is considered the quietest month for car storage.
The client needed to book and pay 3.5 months in advance.
The integrity of our company was to disclose and simply be very honest. Feedback received is the storage companies were unhappy with 85%.
So it's back to the drawing board on that one. How do we best cater the International clientele?
Many own hundreds of cars already.
Established countryside estates are ideal for them www.bestcarstoragelondon.co.uk
Note: we wish to keep the London website to a maximum of 7 live companies who are within a 1.5-2 hour travel distance from the Centre of London.
Note: if your company does provide what we call "experiences" please get in touch.
An experience is a drive-event or something related to motorsport. Something that provides clientele a positive experience which will help to develop long-term UK relationships.
Going forwards:
For the remainder of 2025 - there are only 3 spots (areas) available as the creator conducts the work personally. He doesn't take too many new clients on at once as he must deliver.
The Network is in need of better companies to come on board. All of the first batch of five year clients services (bar 1) were stopped at the end of 2024 mainly due to the ever increasing disrespect. He was left deflated and lost £ thousands by the way.
Givers-Gain was a tactic the creator learned many years ago with a Breakfast group called BNI (Business Network International). When you give, you get back (there are good honorable Business people around). But here, he mistakenly believed the same methodology would apply within the Automotive Industry and the SME's that serve it.
The creator learned that no matter how much he gave to these people they would not give back.
*They are still great people* *It's a common tactic across Business as a whole* *The same overseas, some culture are more severe*.
He wants to find Business people with a givers-gain philosophy. Is this even possible in today's world? It was back in 2006 when he first learned about this philosophy with BNI.
Mainly: he lost long standing relationships that he considers fundamental to fulfilling larger deals. It's a much easier sell to advise a supplier that "yes, we've worked with John for 5 years, never had a raised query or issue on site, always paid us each month too. John is fully recommended".
They didn't care.
Their aim was to take everything whilst ensuring the creator gets nothing (they'd scrape the skin on his back if they could). A couple would put his knowledge down whilst then copying what was in the conversations. Another created an argument for the sum of £50, toxic and negative. Finally, a couple would disregard his creative works to actually find them alternative Business income within a tough economic period (this current content was live then.June.2025). You'd think that they'd support his work considering what he's already achieved for them.
He became quite drained communicating with quite often rude people, who he actually, genuinely valued as long-term Automotive clients. All these past clients had made £ thousands already, in that of, a 3+ year trading relationship.
The creator owns his mistakes with the choice of Automotive companies he once helped. Currently it's difficult to confidently deliver on the alternative Business until replacements have been found. He owns his mistakes.
He has areas available with clients ready to store - unbelievable.
Perhaps also, he made the mistake of not sharing the vision - they were not aware of the overall aim maybe?
Basically: to consider us for Investment in terms of classic cars - meaning the services of;
- Secure Car storage.
- Vehicle Repair & Servicing.
- The Acquisition & Sale of.
- Transport & Recovery services.
- Car preparation such as Detailing.
All will be required.
Investment to join:
Companies must pay money to come on board. The initial set-up fee is £6000.00 if a new Network member. The creator has learned that if nothing has been paid in there is no value and then these people expect everything else to be free too. The fee is negotiable depending on the company and their requirements needed on spec.
This helps to navigate away from unsuitable companies, covers for processes to assist a company (mini-turn-around) if needed. Theft of performance commissions and genuine losses for if they decide to be of a similar character as the examples above.
Not all clients want commercial work. Some are happy with simply increasing their long term storage customers which has always been our "bread and butter" work. As some own countryside estates they have other Business interests meaning the dedication to complete larger contract work can not be fulfilled. Or, they can be part-retired meaning they don't need the chaos commercial work brings (they don't need the money to be fair).
Most companies have availability in storage - we must assess viability to select the best match-fit along with the ones who are able, and prepared to pay-in a little money.
On the table Example:
3-10 year project - first one, an Alfa Romeo as per the 3 photos.
The requirement is for vehicle recovery, storage, TLC repair work/restoration (at least to the point of a detailed diagnostics), part sourcing availability, and finally export.
The creator as part of this project must spend 3-9 months overseas building repour - this is his strength, his character.
The idea of course is to enhance opportunities for Business profits their end - increase what they will earn. But to also invite these people back over to the UK so they can either enjoy one of our Network member experiences or the UK's Classic Car Heritage.
So far he's been advised that the end users are owners of Mining companies.
The benefit in coming onboard is not solely about money.
A shared vision that aims to:
- Continue to provide exceptional service to the domestic market.
- Provide our International friends enjoyable Automotive experiences here in the UK.
- Car storage can become mundane - something creative to think about.
- Many have other Business interests and no doubt would value meeting overseas clientele.
When making contact - just say you want to be apart of the vision.
You may want to add value with your own critique's. A couple of facility owners do drive events. One group drives all the way over to a popular Racing event in France.
The creator can't do everything himself - he needs the support from good people too.
If you made it all the way down to the bottom - thank you very much for reading.
