We welcome your interest in our program and invite you to explore the possibilities! Our success is highly dependent on our ability to bring together experienced, aggressive, entrepreneurial business people who are intent on running their own business by partnering with a national brand.


You can begin the process by completing the two steps below, or by calling 1-877-BUY-BLUE™ today!


Step 1: Ask yourself the following questions:
1. Am I experienced in the automotive industry? As a prerequisite, Thrifty Car Sales requires at least 5 years ownership or management experience in the automobile industry in addition to strong customer-oriented service skills.


2. How much time do I have to invest in a Car Sales franchise? This is not an absentee business. You must be prepared to commit your full energies to this venture.


3. Do I have an estimated net worth sufficient for this franchise opportunity? Due to the capital-intensive nature of our business, Thrifty Car Sales requires a net worth of $500,000 or higher. Financial requirements vary according to the specific location, size of market, inventory size and planned number of locations. This sum does not represent the total investment to open and operate the franchise business.


4. Have I made the decision to be self-employed? Becoming self-employed is a big step that needs to be weighed carefully by the prospective franchise owner to insure he or she is ready for this major life change.


5. Where am I interested in locating my Thrifty Car Sales franchise? Franchise opportunities are available in various cities throughout the U.S. Call 1-877-BUY-BLUE™!


6. What is my time frame for pursuing a Thrifty Car Sales franchise? The acquisition can take between 90-120 days to complete the approval process. Are you prepared to act within this time frame?
