With news of more company layoffs each week, Auto Color Match hopes to attract aspiring entrepreneurs to their successful franchise model. Auto Color Match, founded in 1996 in Winston-Salem, has carved out a niche in a struggling automotive industry.

Specializing in on-site, same-day automotive paint repair, Auto Color Match understands the consumer need to freshen up their current vehicle, as opposed to trading for a newer model in a down economy.

Auto Color Match's typical repair will cost hundreds less than traditional body shops without sacrificing quality. They can easily repair chips and scratches as well as minor body repair on-site in just a few hours. Auto Color Match has built their competitive advantage in this underserved market on quality, convenience and its lower cost advantage over body shops.

Jamie Anderson, President of Auto Color Match is excited about the niche he and his father have created in the automotive industry. "We feel like we are a bright spot in the automotive business," says Anderson. "We have a franchise model in place that will help an entrepreneur with no prior automotive paint experience be successful." Auto Color Match currently has locations in Winston-Salem, NC; Greensboro, NC; High Point, NC; Raleigh/Durham, NC; and Myrtle Beach, SC. Auto Color Match is looking to grow their franchise business to key markets such as Charlotte, NC; Fayetteville, NC; Wilmington, NC and other locations throughout the southeast.

Anderson believes that his model is exceptional because it puts the entrepreneur in the driver's seat. "We feel that if we provide the infrastructure, training and our successful lead generation system, then the entrepreneur can concentrate on turning those leads into revenue," stated Anderson.

According to Anderson the key to Auto Color Match's success is taking chances and trying to think outside the box. "Most people told us we were crazy to paint cars outside," said Anderson. "Now, Auto Color Match has created a tested franchise model that allows entrepreneurs to become the catalyst."
