Steve — quick question from Module 1. When you talk about focusing on 3 to 5 car makes to start with, do you mean I should only look at sellers of those makes, or is it more about which dealers I build relationships with first? I'm thinking BMW and Audi as there seem to be loads of them in my area on AutoTrader but I don't want to limit myself too early if that's not the right approach. Thanks 🙏

Hey everyone — welcome, and I genuinely mean that. My name is Steve, and I built this academy because when I started learning about car broking, I had to piece everything together myself. The knowledge existed but it was scattered, outdated, and nobody was putting it together in a way that actually helped someone get started and close their first real deal. You can find Franchises that cost a fortune and offer hardly any support. That's exactly what this community is here to fix. Whether you've just joined out of curiosity or you're ready to go all in — you're in the right place. Car broking is one of the most accessible, low-overhead businesses available in the UK right now. No stock. No premises. No employees. Just you, a phone, a laptop, and the knowledge in this course. Here's how to get the most out of the academy: 👉 Start with Module 1 — Work through it in order before jumping ahead 👉 Post your introduction in the Introductions channel — tell us who you are and why you joined 👉 Use the Ask Steve channel for any questions — nothing is too basic, everyone starts somewhere 👉 Share your wins in the Wins Board — your first call, your first offer, your first deal. Every step counts. 👉 Be generous — if you know something that helps someone else, share it. This community is only as good as the people in it. Remember Brokers can work with Brokers. One last thing. The people who succeed with this are not always the most experienced or the most confident. They are the ones who show up consistently, take action before they feel ready, and learn from every call whether it goes well or not. That's all it takes. Let's build something great together. 🚗 — Steve
