This is how the Statements in Steel concept works
Statements in Steel SA sells you the exclusive right to establish a Statements in Steel business in a specific area – including
- The core equipment you need; and full training in their use
- A practical introduction to pricing and estimating
- Advertising, marketing and selling techniques that really work
- Invaluable business pointers on how to avoid pitfalls and utilise opportunities
- How to introduce your business into your area and prospect for business; and
- Support to steer you through that crucial “learning curve” for the first three months after establishing your business.
A minimum under-roof space of 36m2 (the size of a double garage) is needed as a workshop.
NB: A Statements in Steel becomes YOUR business. You can run/adapt/grow it in any way you please. It can also work well in conjunction with other already existing businesses, provided you have adequate space available.
Training
After buying your Statements in Steel business, you will receive 6 days’ training in all aspects of the business. Two people are trained per Statements in Steel business.
Training includes:
- handling of all core equipment
- basics of welding (if you cannot weld already)
- workshop management
- correct quoting
- general business practice
- marketing and prospecting for business
- sales technique and presentation skills, and
- practical long term motivation
You will also receive comprehensive documentation and other aids in the course of the training period. On completion of training you are awarded a framed Body & Mind Foundation Certificate of Competence.
Important Note: Many suppliers advertise specific equipment for sale, promising buyers that they can make a fortune working from their own homes. They however fail to take into consideration one most important factor: Somebody who has never worked in an own business before cannot reasonably be expected to suddenly know the secrets of running a business; of marketing and quoting, inter-personal communication, and selling – just because he or she has purchased specific pieces of equipment. Body & Mind Foundation’s business trainer has already trained more than 50 entrepreneurs to set up their own successful businesses – and advised hundreds more who have attended his seminars, workshops and talks

It could take years in your own business to learn the hard and expensive way (if at all) the techniques and innovations shown and taught during Statements in Steel SA training.
Aftercare and Support
Free telephone and e-mail consultation is available for 3 months after training – we ensure that all our owners are happy and prosperous, and thus good references for prospective buyers of Statements in Steel businesses in other areas.
Some buyers make extensive use of our support services; but most feel adequately confident after the initial training, or do not encounter significant problem situations in their areas. Fact is, ALL buyers make use of our support to the extent that they need it – and we encourage them to do so. We walk the road with you as far as need be to ensure the success of your Statements in Steel venture.
