Cater to the Demand for Eco-Friendly Services
As an innovative leader in the automotive service industry, Honest-1 is a green company. We have set in place very specific eco-friendly initiatives and strategies at both the corporate level and at the center level. It is our mission to be the cleanest company in a traditionally dirty industry. Through the Honest-1 Auto Care ESA® (Environmentally Sustainable Actions) Program we employ responsible ECO-Friendly Auto Care® standards and practices in four primary categories: pollution prevention, recycling, resource conservation, and offering and promoting Eco-Friendly Auto Care® services. As an Honest-1 franchise owner you’ll be well-positioned in the stable automotive repair industry, consider this:
- There are currently approximately more than 249 million operating vehicles in the US.
- The average age of these vehicles grows older every year with over $35 billion in maintenance and repair expenditures in 2007.
- With banks tightening their lending requirements, more car owners are holding onto their vehicles longer; which increases the demand for preventative maintenance and repairs.
- Industry statistics show that 66% of customers bringing in vehicles for service are female. Honest-1 centers are designed to be family-friendly with upscale features like tiled lobbies with leather easy chairs and couches, Internet café, complimentary beverages, large screen TVs, children's play areas secured by a low wall, and exceptionally clean work areas.
Comprehensive Training Prepares You to Run Your Business
Honest-1 provides a complete training program for all of our franchisees and its employees. We offer:
- A one week manager's school that covers running the front-end of the business. This includes the sales process, production, software, and managing the shop.
- A one week owner's school that covers all the back-end operations of running a center. Some aspects that are covered include accounting, marketing, human resources, software, and business planning.
- This would all end with one week of field training. The trainee gets to actually work in a center and watch how all of this comes together.
- Area Representative training- Honest-1 provides support training to all Area Representatives (AR). This training teaches AR's how to support the franchisees in their territory on a long-term basis.
