Solid Training Program

After 17 years in law enforcement, Clint Ferrell decided to pursue a life-long dream to own his own business. “Since I considered myself a rookie,” says Clint, “I felt like some type of franchises business was the best way to go. The only thing I knew for sure was how to lock people up, so a solid training program was important to me.”

A Family Affair

Exceeding Our Expectations

"I'm a Meineke franchisee, have been for 11 years. Real excited about the business still. We own three shops. Frankly we came into the business with a business background, didn't know anything about automotive, and it has exceeded our wildest expectations."

Headed in the Right Direction

“I knew I was headed in the right direction the moment I walked into my two-week training session in Charlotte. CEO, Ken Walker was delivering his thoughts on Customer Service, saying to treat both your customers and employees like immediate family. That’s a philosophy of business that’s paid off for me ever since. [Meineke’s broad-based name recognition and reputation for one stop repair] is bringing me a whole different customer than from my Econo-Lube days.”

Strong Brand Name

TJ Maran viewed co-branding his Econo-Lube N Tune with Meineke as an opportunity to add new service opportunities under a stronger name. The co-branded center “looks 150% better” says owner TJ Maran, whose latest improvement initiative is to lay new tiled floors. “Where a $15,000 or a $15,000 week was once the norm, we’re now posting sales numbers well into the $20,000s.”
