With comprehensive training and ongoing support, franchisees can feel confident in their ability to run a successful business.

1. Inclusive Inventory Model – This model is simple yet scalable. Whether it is oil, oil filters, drain plugs, air filters, wipers or any other maintenance item, their inventory partners have their Franchise Owners covered. One of the most difficult aspects of this industry is inventory. In most competitor models, the owner is solely responsible for counting, ordering and stocking inventory. What do you order? How much? When? Strickland Brothers vendors order products and even stock them on the shelf on behalf of the owner. They run demographic reports that show registrations of vehicles in a given radius of your specific location which tell them how much product to stock. Unlike their competitors, their vendors do not require masterpacks. Master packs are packs of filters that have to be sold in quantities of 6 or 12. These create dead stock and ultimately wasted money.

2. Maintenance Free Oil System – Their oil system simplifies their business model (less training & less equipment) so owner scan focus on scaling the business. In their model, you will have stackable totes for oil storage. With this, you still get the national buying power bulk price without having to have pumps, guns, and air regulators. In the traditional lube shops, if an air compressor breaks, you’re done for the day. Not with Strickland Brothers. You don’t need to be concerned with leaky oil lines, gun calibration, pumps dying, or an air compressor going down.

3. Low Build-Out Costs – Some competitors cost as high as $1M their cost averages around $250,000. Their design of their buildings are strategic to allow and to ensure the fastest oil change. In their pre-designed prototypes, they have the full functionality of a quick oil change facility without the cost. Due to them not needing the large traditional oil tanks, a full basement is not needed saving hundreds of thousands of dollars in construction. Not a full basement system, drive-thru, low maintenance building – less waste – stronger profit margins.

4. Hiring Made Simple – Perhaps the biggest challenge the industry faces right now is finding, training, and retaining sufficient personnel. After all, most young people don’t have much interest in cars these days, and certainly don’t wake up in the morning hoping to get a job at a quick-lube shop. At Strickland Brothers they have been able to hire, train and retain top-notch employees who want to grow within the company. Through their proprietary education platform, Strickland Brothers University, they make it easy to attract individuals from a broad applicant pool with no experience necessary!

5. Strategic Partnerships – They have cultivated relationships with vendors of the finest quality products on the market today. In the spirit of partnership and due to their chain’s purchasing power, these vendors not only provide additional support to their Franchise Owner’s through reduced pricing, but they also financially participate in marketing programs. Together they earn their customers’ trust in the products they offer. They have used their corporate leverage to ensure Franchise Owners will receive the best price possible. They have negotiated every penny and ever y deal as it affects them too! Based on prior experiences, they have some of the best product pricing in the industry.

6. Full-Service Marketing – Unfortunately, not all of us are marketing professionals nor have the funds to employ a professional so they have a professional marketing team at the corporate level and they will handle marketing for each one of their Franchise Owners. Owner’s just need to honor the coupons when they arrive at their location. There are very few, if any, other automotive franchise companies that offer this!

7. Technology – Their proprietary technology is industry leading and fully integrated into every aspect of the business! This one platform provides their POS System, back-office system that’s linked to CARFA, CRM, marketing, reviews, auto emails, reporting, and more! They also have a mobile setting to view daily stats in real time.
