Our Oxford Franchisee’s Initial Success
Our Oxford franchisee Neil Martin is already thriving with The Wheel Specialist Franchise Model, just 3 months in.
Starting a business from scratch is no small feat. However, propelling it beyond the limitations of a small, independently run operation to achieve significant growth and returns while transitioning from day-to-day operations to a more strategic role presents its own set of challenges—especially for independent businesses lacking the backing of a support system, established business model, or recognised national brand.
In this newspiece , you'll hear directly from Neil about his experience:
Why The Wheel Specialist was the perfect fit for his growth ambitions.
How our support system empowers him to focus on his customers and sales.
The benefits of our new, streamlined franchise model and equipment package.
Why opening your own The Wheel Specialist Franchise may be your next best move
Plus, learn about our New Introduction Pack and Financial Due Diligence Template, which will help you explore our franchise opportunities with confidence.
A quick re-introduction
For those of you who haven't already heard about Neil (more here), Neil is the latest franchisee to join the network. He has successfully navigated this transition by integrating his already successful wheel refurbishment business, Oxford Performance Autos, into The Wheel Specialist network, poised to take his business to new heights.
Support systems for growth
From the onset of the recruitment process, it was evident that Neil's business was already successful independently. However, he quickly saw the value of joining our national network, not only for additional revenue opportunities but also for the support and tried and tested systems we provide to business owners like him. We offered Neil a clear roadmap to elevate his business, focusing not only on major strategies but also on streamlining smaller elements of his business, alleviating his workload.
Implementing our 2024 Streamlined Equipment Package: Aligned with Our 2024 Franchise Model
Neil's business is over 50% smaller than most units in our network, aligning perfectly with the size of our newly introduced improved franchise model for 2024. Incorporating several of our latest initiatives, including the streamlined equipment package, Neil's business showcases the capability and efficiency of our adapted franchise offering. Additionally, a handful of other franchisees are already benefiting from this streamlined equipment package, reflecting its swift integration since its introduction at the start of 2024.

We have revised our franchise model, providing the potential for a lower risk and higher profitability franchise model for franchisees when compared to our pre-2024 franchise model.
