Automotive Franchise

AutoQual Logo
About Us

In 1998, Ryan Elliott, an automotive entrepreneur, recognized a major problem that used car dealers and car rental agencies were having: After paying significant amounts of money to have a car detailed, the vehicle was test driven and within a week, all the benefits of the detailing had diminished. Mr. Elliott developed a series of proprietary processes and services that not only made a car look and smell fresh but maintained that factory-new experience until the car was sold. The business quickly evolved into the successful and unique franchise that it is today. Between 1998 and 2003, AutoQual grew from a local Colorado-based company to a nationally recognized franchise with locations in 23 states across the country.

Today, AutoQual is a Leader with Plans to Expand throughout the Country. In December 2003, Ryan Elliot sold the company to Automotive Franchise Systems LLC. AFS acquires, develops, and grows automotive franchise companies. The AFS principals, John Lynch and Greg Longe, who have a combined 35 years of automotive franchise experience, recognized the unique greatness in the AutoQual concept and its services. Today, the future of AutoQual looks brighter than ever. Call our AutoQual corporate office and experience the invaluable and unique services that we offer. You'll quickly see the AutoQual difference.

Owning the AutoQual Franchise Difference!

As the leader and creator of our segment of the booming $20 billion automobile aftermarket industry, we're helping used car dealers and car rental agencies close more deals faster, easier, and at higher rates. The AutoQual franchise difference is obvious - we manage the first impression for the car dealers and that turns inventory and that sells cars.

As a national franchise network, our strength lies not only in our proven, trusted service method but also in our large number of locations, consistent marketing, training, and branding, and in our strong pool of experience and knowledge.

How Does AutoQual Franchise's Process Work?

Our proprietary service can make a huge difference in your used vehicle selling process. For a one-time fee, we will ensure that a vehicle is kept clean by re-inspecting, re-cleaning, vacuuming, and installing new plastic in the vehicle until it is sold. Here is what the initial AutoQual franchise servicing entails:

  • Remove all visible trash.
  • Clean with our patented process.
  • Vacuum carpet.
  • Repair all cigarette burns and small holes in the carpet.
  • Re-dye complete carpet, if necessary.
  • Install OE trademarked protective factory plastic in the front driver and passenger areas using a patented process to maintain cleanliness.
  • Install custom mats with your dealership's logo on them.
  • The entire car is completely deodorized with a fresh scent to enhance that first impression.
Training and Support

With AutoQual, you can own your own business and be your own boss, but you'll never be on your own. In fact, prior business ownership experience is not necessary because you'll receive a complete and proven business system and unparalleled, three-part training and support.

First, we give you the best start for your business by assisting you in obtaining licenses, vehicles, staff, and everything else you will need to start running your AutoQual franchise.

Then training begins at our home office in Denver, where you will receive the finest training possible. Starting with a business and industry overview and going through the many aspects of running your AutoQual business, you'll learn everything you'll need to know to run your business during our classroom training. Even if you do not have specific sales experience, we can teach you how to market our services to car dealers, and how to manage your business on an ongoing basis. You will then continue the learning experience with technical training and applying our proprietary products.

Not often offered by franchisors, we will send a field representative to your location for a period of time when your AutoQual franchise is opened to begin the process of establishing new accounts.

Our training and support system is well-planned, proven to work, and gives you the greatest chance to succeed as a business owner. And remember, whenever you have questions or problems, we're just a phone call away. AutoQual minimizes your risk and maximizes your profit with the most comprehensive training and support available.
