It was 1993, and the worst performing Ford store in the Twin Cities had recently fallen forward under a new owner and new name. And while fresh leadership and tasteful rebranding would certainly ensure lateral success, an entirely new philosophy was what was going to drive it high.
This new philosophy would require a bit of off-roading from the status quo. It was time to put something new on the auto world map; time to give the automotive industry a brand-new reputation.
In revisiting all the brands we knew, companies we loved, and most memorable places we’d been, we found one common denominator. It wasn’t building aesthetics, the location, or even the product that stuck with us, it was always the people.
Since we opened our doors in 1993, we committed ourselves to building a culture that shattered industry stereotypes, and we started with our people. We asked one of our employees who has been with us since the very beginning what one of his most memorable moments was with Apple Autos. He recalled the first time he went out to clean off cars after a heavy Minnesota snowfall in ’94.
“I noticed the owner was right there with us, dusting off the vehicles. It showed me that this was a place that worked more like a family than like a business. It was nice to be treated like a person rather than just an employee.”
We said it then, and still today. We have nothing of greater value than our people. They are the secret sauce to our success. And we still believe the best is yet to come!
We believe these basic values bring success to our business and the personal lives of our employees
The Value of Individual Responsibility & Accountability
The Value of Our People
The Value of Unconditional Dedication to Excellence
The Value of Being good Community Citizens
The Value of Cooperation & Communication
The Value of Honesty and Integrity
The Value of Ongoing Improvement
Apple Autos’ philosophy is based on five key areas that we believe are critical to business success:
Our philosophy holds that each area is of equal importance and we continually strive to reach a level of excellence in each area. However, in any planning or decision-making process, or in any situation of seeming conflict or contradiction among the five critical areas, Customer Enthusiasm will always carry the most weight.
