Five questions to ask before you join Utility Warehouse
Join Utility Warehouse as a Partner
Change is scary. But without it, you’ll never realise your true earning potential.
And the likely reason you’re on this page right now is because you want to take the first step in that journey, but need to do your research first. Well, you’ve come to the right place. If you want to join Utility Warehouse as a Partner, there are five key questions that you need to consider:
1. How much money can I make?
Predictably, there’s no one answer for this question. I personally make just over £400 per month. This is after four years of working two to four hours per week, building up my customer base. Recently, I celebrated my 100th personal customer. Utility Warehouse Partner earnings are directly linked to the effort that the effort put in.
There are Partners who joined Utility Warehouse after me who have achieved more than I have. The elegance of this business is that your earnings are directly related to your effort, you really are your own boss! The truth is that if you are prepared to work diligently and consistently, you will be rewarded. Once you have built up a customer base, you will keep getting paid on their accounts every month.
2. I have a full time job. How easy is it to perform my role as Partner at the same time?
Joining Utility Warehouse as a Partner is becoming a popular method for extra household income, as many enterprising individuals are discovering. Your role as Partner is designed to fit around your own time, so you’re in control and decide your own level of participation. People from all walks of life are able to get the most from this opportunity and still have enough personal time to enjoy the rewards.
3. Is Utility Warehouse reputable?
Well, it’s been named the UK’s best energy provider by Which? magazine many times and is owned by Telecom Plus plc, which is listed on the London Stock Exchange. It’s licensed by energy regulator Ofgem, regulated by Ofcom and so far over 320,000 homes and small businesses have joined Utility Warehouse as customers. Then there’s the feedback from Utility Warehouse customers. In a recent survey, 94 percent said they would recommend the company’s utility services to family and friends. That’s part of the success of Utility Warehouse: the power of word of mouth.
4. What exactly am I expected to do?
To become a Partner, you sign up with an existing Partner. There‘s a £100 joining fee, which is refunded if you recruit 3 good quality (4 service) customers in your first 60 days. You’ll earn a bonus of up to £40 for every customer signed up. For example, £20 for a 4 service customer, typically taking gas, electricity, telephone and broadband. You also earn a monthly income based on how much your customers spend on the services they take. In addition, when you introduce other Partners to the business, you earn a smaller amount of commission on what their customers spend as well.
5. What difference will it make to my life?
Now, this is an important question to ask. And the answer? It’s completely up to you.
If times are lean financially, it could mean that you’re able to pay off your debts while at the same time being able to afford those day-to-day luxuries that you may have been depriving yourself, such as new clothes or family days out.
The way you approach the Utility Warehouse business opportunity and your role as a Partner will help you make that change: your enthusiasm and tenacity is integral to the amount of money you make.

Hello,
I’m on the fence about joining as a distributor, I’d love to earn an extra income while still working full time.
I’d like you have some more information sent to me about the training I’d receive and just how the system works once I’ve potentially signed up?
Many thanks

As a distributor, how do you get customers? If you have no sales experience is it difficult?
Jun 02, 2017 @ 20:01:58
Hi Pauline
Many thanks for your question!
It is not difficult to get customers for most people. There is a simple system to follow that will enable you to grow your business. The main difficulties that new Utility Warehouse distributors encounter are:
– They expect to sign customers without approaching anyone.
– They don’t follow the proven system that is demonstrated on Utility Warehouse training.
– They get disheartened when they get a few ‘no’s’ which are really ‘no for now’s’
If you get your head down & follow the system – it will work. The single most useful piece of advice I was ever given in Utility Warehouse was by Duncan Mackenzie: Go to the training as much as you can. He went 22 times in his first year.
Hope that helps?
Many thanks & look forward to working with you!

Any chance you can send me an information pack please?
Also is there a lower age limit, as my daughter is looking for a way to earn money while studying at college full time and trying to work her way up the ladder competing her horses?

I am considering becoming a UW Partner but am concerned about how UW fares alongside the many energy providers which give very low rates. I myself am with Bulb for electricity and gas as they are one of the best on price.

Hi Emma, thanks for the message! There are indeed many competitive companies in the energy marketplace. Utility Warehouse offer the best savings when customers take multiple services and the Cashback card gives savings that no other company can match. For customers looking only to switch one utility they can often find a better deal elsewhere – particularly if they switch every year.
Most of my customers do not have the time or inclination to switch every year and therefore take peace of mind knowing that Utility Warehouse are always competitive and fair – underlined by their awards in Which? magazine. Plus they get personal service from me, which is highly valued these days.
Hope that helps? Happy to chat on the phone anytime.
Many thanks,
Jonathan
