This brochure is not an offer to sell a franchise. The offer of a franchise can only be made through the delivery of a Franchise Disclosure Document ("FDD"). Some states require our FDD to be registered with the state prior to us offering or selling franchises in the state. For all states requiring registration, we will not forward additional information to individuals in the state or offer franchises in the state, until we have registered our franchising offering in accordance with applicable state law.

With every passing day, more and more Baby Boomers are becoming senior citizens. And as they age, their needs

for mobility products increase. But with mainly “mom and pop” companies and anonymous online firms to choose from, seniors don’t know who to trust for professional, reliable mobility solutions.

Welcome to 101 Mobility. Headquartered in Wilmington, North Carolina, we provide and install a broad range of high quality brands of mobility equipment. Thousands of elderly customers and others with disabilities count on us for our exceptional products—stair lifts, auto lifts, ramps, porch lifts to power wheelchairs and more. We’re proud to tell you we’re one of the largest dealers of many of our mobility product manufacturers, with a sales force which covers multiple states across the country.

Are you looking for a business opportunity that’s as exciting as it is meaningful? While the senior population is already enormous, it’s forecast to skyrocket in the decades ahead. And the truth is almost all seniors want to “age in place”—remain in their homes as they get older—and most of them will require mobility products to stay there.

Due to the tremendous growth of our business, we are looking to expand our operations and are inviting you to join our franchise network. We have a detailed, established business system already in place—incredible mobility products, comprehensive training, highly effective sales techniques, extraordinary customer service, innovative marketing, the latest business management technologies and more. And it’s all been meticulously planned and perfected by experienced leaders committed to helping you grow your franchise.

If you enjoy working with the elderly and have the patience, persistence and passion to build your own business, this could be the career opportunity you’ve been waiting for.

Thanks for excellent, professional and amazing service. You were there to keep

me informed on updates during the shipment of the lift. I truly appreciate

the kind warm service you, Tom, and Jim provided. Life is a little easier now getting in and out of my home… Again thanks a million times for your service.

A business model developed to grow as

your local operation does.

You can launch your franchise from home if you can meet our basic business requirements such as minimum square footage, standards for computers, equipment set up and voice mail/answering service. After about three months, you’ll typically need a small office/warehouse location, probably in a light industrial area. We’ll help you through the entire process, including site location, design, and showroom specifications, if you should decide to have one.

You won’t need to hire employees initially, which will help lower your preliminary costs! As your business grows, you may choose to hire sales staff and operational personnel as well as a service manager to oversee the operation.

Relatively easy to operate. A sales person takes the order, oversees delivery and handles logistics. But technical and construction experience isn’t necessary nor is Medicare/Medicaid accreditation. Installation is performed by local, certified subcontractors, giving you the flexibility to adjust for volume.

Getting your franchise noticed is all “wrapped” up! Each franchisee is required to have a white van with a vibrant 101 Mobility graphic wrap on it. We’ll provide appropriate signage for company and sales vehicles and magnetic signs for subcontractors to use, too. Also, shirts and hats with the101 Mobility logo on it will be available for purchase online—to give your staff a professional look.

An extraordinary concept that offers independence to customers…

and franchise owners!

Personalized customer service that stands out from the crowd!

Unlike other unsophisticated “mom and pop” mobility shops and impersonal online product dealers, 101 Mobility franchise offers courteous, compassionate customer service. Our professional sales reps visit customers in their homes—recommending appropriate solutions and answering questions, and factory-certified subcontractors help ensure a fast, easy onsite installation. It all adds up to a positive, worry-free experience for every client!

Stair Lifts. We are authorized, certified installers of an array of safe, dependable options.

Auto Lifts. Our full line includes hitch mounted lifts, boom lifts, interior lifts and truck bed lift systems to accommodate power wheelchairs and scooters.

Ramps. When quoting and installing our modular ramps, built specifically for each home or building, we always balance cost, aesthetics and safety.

Porch Lifts. Talk about uplifting products! Our platform lifts provide porch and decks accessibility to those who need it.

Power Wheelchairs and Scooters. We offer a selection of technologically advanced alternatives to improve the lives of those with disabilities.

Medical Equipment. Walkers, canes, hospital beds, therapeutic pumps and more!

The mobility experts

We provide and install a superb selection of high quality, affordable mobility equipment, including:

Becoming a 101 Mobility franchise owner is not only a truly rewarding career opportunity, it’s a chance to be part of an enormous market, one that is predicted to soar far into the future.

Plus, our corporate leaders have extensive sales experience and are ready to share their insight and knowledge…all to help you close sales and grow your local franchise!

An exciting business opportunity today…

and far into the future!

In the U.S., the population of people 65-years-old and older will more than double by 2050, from 39 million today to 89 million. What’s more, the world’s 85 and older population is projected to climb from 40 million to a staggering 219 million!1

Almost 90 percent of seniors want to “age in place”—stay independent and remain in their own home, but more than half of them are concerned about their ability to do so.2

U.S. annual sales for personal mobility devices such as wheelchairs, powered scooters and lifts are expected to reach $3.6 billion.3 Worldwide, the wheelchair and scooter market alone is expected to rise to $7.9 billion annually by 2015.4

101 Mobility has so much going for it! We operate in a unique market niche with a wide selection of products, resulting in multiple revenue source possibilities. Franchisees benefit from a broad customer base, including individuals who need accessibility and their advocates as well as businesses that must be compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act. What’s more, there are a number of referral sources to tap into for potential prospects—home health aides, hospitals—especially VA hospitals, auto dealers, rehab centers, construction contractors, insurance companies and more.

I was amazed, frankly, at how the installation went. They’ve done so many installations, that there’s probably no situation that they couldn’t help you figure out how to solve. The people at 101 Mobility knew how to do about anything. They were all very professional and courteous; I would be very comfortable in recommending 101 Mobility.

-J. Edwards

101 Mobility has been super! I just loved the crew. They were very helpful in getting the ramp put up. I get to go out more and do more things because of the ramp. I don’t have to stay in all of the time—like before.

My experience with the company has been nothing but a positive one…The managing partners work side by side with us and are always there to offer a listening ear and a helping hand. It has been fun and exciting to see the growth 101 Mobility has had thus far, and I am anxious to see where it is going...It is rewarding to play a small part in improving our clients’ quality of life which is what 101 Mobility is all about. 101 Mobility has delved into a market that is growing quickly and is in need of the products and services that we have to offer. It really is a breath of fresh air to believe in and stand behind the company for whom you work.- Brigid Sheridan, 101 Mobility account manager

I started with 101 Mobility close to the beginning, and have learned a great deal about the industry. The staff is great to work with and it seems like a small family, with everyone working towards the common goal… helping persons with disabilities. The advancement in technology is spectacular, and I can’t wait to see where the future takes the industry. - Joseph Gray, 101 Mobility service manager

“… A great place to work. Everyone is very friendly and hard working. Their number one goal is to make sure that the customer is put first, no matter what. The owners of the company have a clear idea of where they want this company to go and are working very hard to make that happen. There is no doubt in my mind that they will succeed in reaching their goals.- Lori P. Dempsey, 101 Mobility, Wilmington, NC

I have worked in a number of sales jobs including the pharmaceutical industry. This is by far the best opportunity I have ever experienced. Working with the VA hospital and veterans is … rewarding. There are a limited number of vendors that work with the VA and the request for quotes is fairly steady. On the retail side, the sky is the limit. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who is self-motivated and wants to be rewarded for their efforts. I have found the staff at 101 Mobility to be extremely helpful and they provide the tools needed to successfully grow the territory.- Chris Mink, 101 Mobility, Columbus Ohio
