Franchising FAQs
If you’re interested in exploring auto repair franchise opportunities, you probably have a few questions about the process with getting started, what to expect, and what success will look like with running your own shop.
Here are some of the frequently asked questions we get at All Tune:
No. Some of our most successful owners started with no auto repair experience. We’ll provide training, help you hire the right team and give you the tools to manage the business side of the shop.
We ask franchisees to commit at least 30 hours a week, especially in the first few years. Some mature shops may eventually run with less day-to-day involvement, but this is not a passive ownership model.
We’re a small team, and that’s a good thing. You’ll get real, hands-on help from our leadership. That includes support with site selection, planning, launching the shop and ongoing growth. We’ll give you the confidence to build your business, and you won’t feel like just another dot on the map.
The All Tune franchise fee is $44,000. We offer a 15% discount off the franchise fee for qualified veterans. The total initial investment is estimated to be $245,000 – $470,000, which includes the initial franchise fee. You can find more detail on the estimated initial investment at this link.
Required Liquid Capital is the amount of cash or easily available funds you need to qualify for franchise ownership. This number is based on what most lenders, including the SBA, expect. They typically lend up to about 70% of the total startup cost, so you should plan to have around 30% in liquid capital to cover your share.
Estimated Initial Investment is the total cost to open your auto repair franchise location. It includes the franchise fee, build-out, equipment, signage, initial inventory, and other startup expenses needed to get your business up and running.
All Tune’s requires liquid capital of $75,000-$140,000, which is ≈30% of our estimated initial investment of $245,000-$470,000.
We do not offer financing, We recommend that prospective owners work with companies like Benetrends Financial (www.benetrends.com) to help with planning and financing options.
The weekly royalty is 6.5% of gross sales . There is a minimum weekly royalty of $395.

As noted in our 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, our current national ad fund contribution is 0%. This means that marketing dollars directly benefit each center.
We require a minimum level of marketing investment for each new location because we believe that a consistent investment in marketing is key to a center’s growth and long-term success. Most importantly, a center’s marketing budget should be based on its long-term goals, not on last month’s performance. According to our 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, we require new franchisees to spend a minimum of $5,000 for advertising and promotion for the first 6 months, and the greater of 5% of gross sales or $2,500 per month for the next 36 months.
The estimated initial investment noted in our 2025 FDD is $245,000 – $470,000. The details of our initial investment estimate are here on our website. This is our estimate of the cost to open an All Tune center and operate it for the first few months. The variation is driven by conditions in your local market, the characteristics of the site you select and the choices you make in getting your center ready to open. You can learn more in our recent article, “All Tune Franchise Cost Explained: Why The Investment Range Varies” on the Resources section of our website. Most importantly, we encourage you to review Item 7 of our current FDD for the most detailed explanations of our estimates and assumptions.
