Car Medic

Car Medic – The SMART value for money franchise.

Over 15 years ago, Car Medic was the first franchisor in the SMART vehicle repairs market.  Car Medic developed as a brand and led the field with innovative processes and new products.

Today, Vehicle Medic, the parent company focuses mainly on Car Medic and Caravan Medic brands,  not only offering a full technical training package for all new franchisees but also free on-going training on any new processes introduced though technological advances or regulation changes. Most recently, Vehicle Medic has introduced additional support to new franchisees by providing training in Sales and Marketing, Health and Safety and many other pertinent issues that are important for creating successful businesses

Our franchisees benefit from the best products and processes available to provide fast and profitable SMART repairs

  A comprehensive advertising program is in place with a media mix that generates leads for Car Medic and Caravan Medic franchisees nationwide. The company also provides a UK based 24/7 call centre quotation request service ensuring that all enquiries are dealt with efficiently and quickly. The leads are passed to the franchisee allowing them to contact the potential customer directly, often within minutes of the enquiry being logged by our service.

Franchise fees are often a major problem for franchisees with many companies taking a large percentage of the franchisees gross turnover. At Vehicle Medic we believe our franchisees should not be penalised for success – therefore we charge a flat weekly fee – so no matter how successful the franchisee is, the fixed weekly cost remains the same.

The old adage that ‘a bad workman always blames his tools’ cannot be applied to our franchises as our new equipment package includes upgrades to provide top quality branded products and consumables that deliver a superior SMART repair. All consumables are supplied to franchisees at extremely competitive prices with 24 hour turnaround from order to delivery, so that money tied up in stock is kept to a minimum.

One of our newest Caravan Medic franchisees Carl Harris, who covers the Kettering area summed up his approach to his new business:  “I realised that I needed to generate work from day one, so I contacted every caravan storage facility and dealers in my area. In just three weeks I have generated enough work for three to four days per week for the foreseeable future”  

Not bad for a new franchisee who has been in business for less than a month!

Car Medic and Caravan Medic franchises provide a prospective franchisee the opportunity to develop a great business in an ever growing marketplace. The potential market size is over £ billion and growing. In the current climate potential customers seek to protect their insurance renewal premiums and retain no claims bonuses providing a practically recession proof business where you can grow your own business and be your own boss

Remember – with a Vehicle Medic franchise – our best repairs are never seen!
