Why SpeeDee Oil Change & Auto Service^® is a Top-Rated Automotive Franchise

We make vehicle maintenance convenient

SpeeDee's success is built upon the SpeeDee Performance Certified Program that requires our teams to deliver speed, quality, and a remarkable experience to every customer, at every service visit.

Customers choose us because our SpeeDee Performance Certified technicians act as advisors, not salesmen. During each oil change, we conduct a 17-point inspection of the vehicle: checking air filters, brake fluid, power steering fluid, battery fluid, coolant, tires, windshield wiper fluid, and more. We even vacuum the interior. If we find issues, or if mileage indicates that it’s time for manufacturer-recommended services, we let the customer know the issue and give them the option of having the service performed. From a business perspective, it’s an opportunity to sell additional services and increase the average ticket and profitability. But we don’t take a sales-driven approach. We simply let customers know what we advise to help them keep their vehicle tip-top.

We build teams through respect, empowerment, and drive

SpeeDee believes that the best way to build a successful business is to instill a strong culture within the organization. We all rely on one another for the brand to be successful. We work hard every day to earn the trust of franchisees, just as you work to earn the trust of your customers and employees.

We look for people who have the drive to constantly improve, and the willingness to share ideas and ask questions. We look for people who treat others with respect, honesty, and consideration. We look for leaders who will empower their employees and who enjoy watching them develop new skills and advance their careers. And we value commitments — the willingness to do what’s needed to fulfill promises.

More than anything, we value teamwork.

Matthew Kirby, who owns three locations in Texas and is planning to open more, says the business model has helped both his family and his employees thrive. His three children run day-to-day operations. One of the things he loves about the business is that he's not the only one making good money. "One of my managers came in with a big smile on his face and gave me a hug. 'What's that for?,' I asked. He told me that his dad about had a cow when he saw his 1040 form laying around. He couldn't believe it. His son was making more than both his parents put together."
