Still A Goldmine: Inside Grease Monkey & Speedee Oil Change Franchises with Kelly Tope
In this episode, I sit down with Kelly Tope, Vice President of Franchise Development at Full Speed Automotive (the umbrella behind brands like Grease Monkey & Speedee). We go deep into:
Why automotive is an overlooked but high-potential franchise category.
How multi-unit growth works (40%+ of their franchisees are multi-unit/multi-brand).
The DNA of top performers — business acumen + the “aggressive follower” mindset.
Investment ranges, unit economics (top 25% units doing ~$1.8 M AV + $400-$500k EBITDA!).
Where EVs and AI are really headed in auto service.
What mistakes see franchises struggle — and how to avoid them.
A special message for first-time franchisees: how to evaluate fit, culture, and franchisor support.
