TESTIMONIALS

 

Testimonial - Franchisee

 

“The Dial A Digger system is great. I was able to start my own business with no experience and in only a few years I have expanded my business and now offer both bobcat and excavator services. All of the administration and customer support is provided by the Support Office so I am left to focus on what I do best, provide superior earthmoving and trenching services to our customers. The Support Office takes care of everything from quoting the work, through to booking the jobs, invoicing the customers and collecting the debts. Unlike other operators who work for themselves, I do not have to go home after a full day of being on site and then have to start my paperwork, return phone calls from customers or chase payments, it has all been done for me. Instead, I get to spend time with my family and friends and enjoy the rewards of my hard work. ”

Alan Christopher, Franchisee since May 2005

We can call Dial A Digger any day, anytime and be assured that because they have such an extensive range of machines and operators they will be available when we need them. Having operators throughout South Australia gives us the reassurance that we have access to these services without delays. Our previous experience with independent operators has highlighted the benefits of using Dial A Digger which has a dedicated management and administrative team”
