What Makes HardTop Hotel Different

We don’t believe in a “one size fits all” franchise approach. As part of our valued franchisee family, you’ll stay supported by our innovative technology that stays up-to-date, and 1-on-1 support with your success at the core.

Small Niche, Big Market

Although installing and storing HardTops and SoftTops might seem like a narrow focus, it’s actually a big market with an estimated 4.7M serviceable vehicles in the U.S.** Laser focus on this niche also gives us domain expertise and lets us really target our marketing.

Recurring Revenue Model

 The storage model is a great source of recurring monthly revenue! This provides a number of benefits including the ability to forecast revenues accurately. We also enjoy strong year-over-year customer renewal rates which makes scaling the business easier.

Fast Growing

Our Corporate location has experienced strong revenue growth

Low Investment

Relative to more capital-intensive franchise models, HardTop Hotel has an estimated initial investment range of $124,340 – $191,875* and features a scaleable model that avoids long-term initial leases for storage.

Proprietary Technology

We’ve developed our own proprietary Saas Technology platform that is specifically designed to manage the business. This platform is the center of your day-to-day, tying together the below features and more:

  • Customer communications (SMS, email, calls)
  • Marketing automation
  • Daily service logs
  • Employee scheduling
  • Appointment scheduling and route optimization
  • Customer invoicing, payments and subscriptions

The beauty of a proprietary platform is that it can grow specifically to suit the ever-evolving needs of the business in a direct and streamlined fashion. You deserve better than workarounds in an off-the-shelf CRM or multiple individual software platforms that are hard to manage! 

Seeking Season Business Enthusiasts

We’re looking for entrepreneurs that get excited by the challenges and benefits that come with running a seasonal business. Our corporate owned operation enjoys a relaxed summer schedule and shuts down for the winter.
