Former Senior Manager From Apple® Helps Pioneer Hot New Franchise
Neil Kent
Few people would be a more appropriate owner of the first Experimac franchise, a business dedicated to providing pre-owned products, repair services and trade-ins for Apple® devices including its enormously popular lines of cell phones, tablets and laptops, than Neil Kent. That’s because for five years Kent was a senior manager for Apple®, where he worked to increase the exposure of many of the very same products he will now be selling. Located in Sandy Springs, Georiga at 5920 Roswell Rd. Suite B-115, the opening of Kent’s Experimac introduced the brand to the United Franchise Group, joining renowned brands such as Signarama, EmbroidMe and SuperGreen Solutions. For Kent, owning an Experimac is a true labor of love. Throughout the duration of his career, Kent has been what he calls an “Apple® fanboy.” “Nearly every aspect of my career has had a significant presence of Apple® devices in some way,” said Kent. “I loved my career, but it became apparent that it was time for a career change. My experience working with Apple® was just one of many reasons why Experimac stood out as the perfect opportunity for me. I love being at the cutting edge of technology and Apple® platforms have always represented the peak of advanced computing. I’ve quit a job because they wouldn’t let me use Apple® products, which says it all about my dedication to the brand.” With United Franchise Group, said Kent, he’s able to be his own boss while still benefiting from the support system unique to franchising. “Franchising presents the best of both worlds in terms of granting me control of my own destiny, while also helping me start my business backed by a stellar reputation and support that United Franchise Group provides.”
To Kent, Experimac is the solution to a common conundrum among Apple® device aficionados. “There’s such an incredible demand for Apple® products, but the reality is they’re often expensive when purchased new,” said Kent. “There’s a large audience that wants those products but cannot afford the latest versions. People don’t fully realize that you can go back a few generations of Apple® products and still have an effective product. This is what makes Experimac such an intriguing brand. I’m proud to be the first of what stands to be many Experimac locations around the country.”
