Strategic Accounts Manager - West Region Valvoline Quick Lube Management
CurrentMy responsibilities include new business development and acquisition for Valvoline in the western United States. I’ve had the privilege of connecting independent quick lube owners, corporate executives looking to start a new business and multi-unit franchisees looking to expand their portfolio with the successful Valvoline Instant Oil Change business opportunity.Valvoline Instant Oil Change was founded in 1986 and is based in Lexington, Kentucky. We currently have 899 locations in 41 states, with room to grow in many markets.We also own and operate 260+ of our quick lube locations, which means our franchisees benefit from our investment in the resources, tools, infrastructure and support system to drive results at store level. Many of our quick lube owner conversion candidates are facing increased competition from national brands, which serves to erode revenue and relevance in the local community. Our conversion program enables owners to take their business to the next level, backed by the brand power of Valvoline and its 140 years of innovation, technology and industry knowledge. We are also an attractive investment option for corporate executives looking to start the next chapter in their career – less hours, fewer employees, an attractive ROE and the ability to better control your own destiny are but a few of the reasons why successful executives choose to join the Valvoline Instant Oil Change franchise family.We offer training, talent management tools, marketing assistance, a state-of-the-art POS system, customer care support, and franchise business consultants who have an average of 14 years of experience in the quick lube industry.It’s no mistake that our franchise partners consistently generate higher gross revenue, with larger average transaction amounts and more oil changes per day than the industry average.
