I was born and raised in St. Petersburg, Russia. At the age of 14, my parents bravely decided to make a huge change to better our family and immigrated to Israel. Living in a new country and having to speak a new language was a challenge. I was forced to figure things out on my own and make a new life for myself. I suppose that big change at a young age forged an adventurous spirit within myself.

As a young adult, I got the bug to travel again to a new country and off I went to the United States. I fell in love with the country and came back for summer vacation several years in a row. On my third visit, I met my wife Emily and we put roots down in Austin, TX. After several years in Austin, constantly seeing all the possibilities that come with living in the U.S., I started dreaming of one day becoming my own boss and running a business. I kept thinking about what kind of business I could open.

In 2016 my father called me, telling me about his friend’s car that had transformed from this product called RestorFX. He was so amazed and impressed by the product, he encouraged me to find out more about it so I could possibly get this treatment done on my then really rough-looking Honda Civic. While I wasn’t able to help my Civic (sadly it was too far gone), I became as enthralled with RestorFX as my dad had–except I took it to a new level and started thinking about building a RestorFX Center.

RestorFX provided me with a tremendous amount of opportunity. My wife and I secured a RestorFX license and opened up our Center in August 2017. The company and product has allowed me to live out my dream of becoming a business owner; but I couldn’t have done it without the support of the RestorFX International team. They truly want all of their licensees to succeed. Not only is RestorFX itself a unique, cutting-edge product that allows my shop to offer something no one else in Austin does; they are constantly looking to the future and continue to be innovative in the automotive industry.

I’m now part of an international family of people, while still having the freedom to live out my dreams. We have now processed more than 1,300 cars in our shop and are really excited about the future. RestorFX offers a huge amount of value to our customers, and we realize it now more than ever during COVID19 that they rely on us to get their cars looking brand new.

We are very grateful to be a part of the RestorFX family!

“We met Oliver through our great relationships with IFPG Consultant members at The Entrepreneur Authority (TEA). As a referral from TEA broker Charlie Bever, Oliver represents just one of the many great candidates in our sales process that were brought to us by a highly skilled broker who truly understands the exciting potential of a RestorFX Center for a broad range of their hard earned clients.” said Sales Director Tony Dowsett.

Oliver’s RestorFX Center will be the first in New Hampshire which, between the Concord and Manchester markets, will be a great location the RestorFX Restoration, Protection and Maintenance services. Personal Center Advisor Allison from RestorFX has begun to work with Oliver to get the ball rolling right away; a full service experience which includes working with a top international real estate company to accomplish strategic site selection and build-out.

Tony goes on to say, “We value our strategic relationships with other industry leaders in order to provide our new franchisees with assistance in important areas like site selection and also financing. With assistance from one of our great financing partners, RestorFX is able to help new franchisees like Oliver organize financing through practical options like a 401k rollover. It’s an excellent alternative to having such assets just sit there; instead putting them to work in order to allow a new franchisee to take control of their financial future!”

RestorFX takes the sales process and handling of broker leads just as seriously as organic leads. “We understand the time and resources that brokers put into cultivating great client relationships and as a result we have worked with brokers to create an effective process that both converts prospective candidates and keeps brokers constantly aware of the progress along the way.” said RestorFX CEO Nicholas Vaandering. “We are constantly receiving compliments on Tony Dowsett from high producing industry veterans who are very pleased with the work he does to inform, engage and convert their clients. He is a great example of how everything we do at RestorFX is about the pursuit of excellence.”

Franchising has been a recent addition to the business model at RestorFX. With many years of experience operating corporate locations and partnering with licensees, RestorFX has been able to package the best of it’s experience, systems and successes to create a turn-key solution for those looking for a niche brick and mortar business opportunity. A RestorFX Center provides unique services with a blue ocean of opportunity, lower financial barrier to entry than most brick and mortar franchises, environmentally friendly initiatives and the potential to be up and running in 3-4 months.

We are pleased to welcome Oliver to the family and look forward to introducing the Concord market to the power of RestorFX.
