She shares how creating a culture of collaboration, embracing change, and staying invested in the success of the entire system can help franchisees build stronger, more sustainable businesses.

Why the Auto Repair Industry?

Because the opportunity has never been stronger.

There are more than 282 million registered vehicles on the road — and they’re staying there longer, with the average vehicle age now 12.8 years.

Transmission repair alone is projected to grow by more than 65% over the next decade. General automotive repair and maintenance revenue has seen significant long-term growth as well. The demand isn’t slowing down — it’s accelerating.

If you’re exploring franchise ownership, the automotive industry deserves a serious look.
