Thanks to our Partners, Shop Boss and AppFueledEver meet someone in this industry doing something completely out of the box, and it works? That's Ben Tilson.Kim sits down with Ben, the second-generation owner of Tilson's Auto Repair in Rochester, Minnesota. He's not just growing a solid shop, he's writing children's books to spark curiosity and pride in the next generation of technicians. And no, it's not a gimmick. These books are rooted in Ben's journey with dyslexia and a passion for storytelling that's reshaping how kids and their parents see the auto repair world.We dive into the making of Technician Colton's 10 Steps to an Oil Change and Olivia's ABCs to a Car, how these books are being shared with local libraries, schools, and families, and how they're quietly laying the foundation for future techs. His mission is clear: show kids that trades matter, that working with your hands is something to be proud of, and that this industry is filled with real opportunity.But the episode goes way beyond books. We talk about Ben's creative, grassroots marketing strategies, hosting community events, shop tours, dance parties, Santa in a sleigh, and more. These aren't big-budget campaigns. They're smart, authentic ways to build trust, brand loyalty, and lasting community ties.This one's not just inspiring, it's a reminder that when you lean into who you are and lead with heart, you don't just grow your shop. You build a legacy.This episode is sponsored by Shop Boss. Shop Management software that works the way you need it to right out of the box. Want to revolutionize your marketing?

Thanks to our Partners, Shop Boss and AppFueledWe all want great teams, but most shop owners don't realize that a high-performing team doesn't start with talent; it starts with culture. In this episode, I sit down with my right-hand man, J.R. Portman, and we unpack the real story behind building and keeping a team that not only performs but thrives.JR's been instrumental in shaping the culture here at Shop Marketing Pros, and together we walk through what it takes to build a team from scratch, the brutal cost of hanging on to the wrong people, and how to create an environment where your team steps up even when you're on vacation.We'll get into hiring for character vs. capability, how tools like EOS and DISC can transform your business, what “core values” actually mean in the real world, and the moment when your team starts running the business better than you do.This isn't fluff. It's real talk about what culture is, what happens when you get it wrong, and how it feels when you finally get it right. This episode is sponsored by Shop Boss, manage and grow your shop with top features like integrated payments from 360 Payments.

Most shop owners don't think about marketing when things are going great, but wait until the car count drops or the phones go quiet. That's when the panic hits, and all eyes turn to marketing. But what if your shop's struggles aren't about marketing at all?In this episode, I sit down with Daniel Burkholder from Body Shop Marketing to explore a lesser-known aspect of the collision industry. Daniel's been in this world since he was a kid, growing up in the family's body shop, and now he's on the frontlines helping collision shop owners navigate a changing landscape.We talk about what a Direct Repair Program (DRP) is, how it affects a shop's autonomy, and why relying on insurance companies for car count is a dangerous game. You'll hear how customer behavior is shifting even with DRPs in play and how shops that aren't actively marketing are gambling with their future.This episode is loaded with insights about the customer journey in the collision space, the rising importance of Google search, the power of reputation, and why the best time to market is when you don't need the work. Whether you're all mechanical or have a toe in the collision side, this is a conversation worth tuning into. This episode is sponsored by Shop Boss.

Thanks to our Partners, App Fueled and Shop BossWhen car count dips and phones go quiet, the first call most shop owners make is to their marketing company. But what if the issue isn't the marketing at all?In this episode, I sit down with Stan Stokes, creator of GuestX, to talk about a problem every shop owner faces but most misunderstand figuring out why leads aren't turning into customers. Stan's been deep in the world of marketing and operations for nearly two decades, and he's built a tool that shines a light on what's really happening between the phone ringing and a car showing up in your bay.We'll dig into topics like lead quality vs. lead conversion, how your service advisors might be unknowingly costing you business, the difference between perceived and actual appointments, and why the phrase “price shopper” might be more excuse than reality.This episode isn't about assigning blame. It's about owning your process, getting real insight, and making the moves that will fill your bays with the right cars and the right customers.Thanks to our Partners, App Fueled and Shop BossThis episode is sponsored by Shop Boss.

In this episode, I'm joined by two of my favorite people, our COO, Hallie Wasinger, and lead CSM, Danni Marks, as we unpack the wild ride that is Google Ads.This isn't a blame game or finger-pointing session.

Want a real marketing plan that doesn't live in your head or on a bunch of sticky notes?There's something powerful about experiencing world-class customer service firsthand and then turning around and asking, “How can I bring this level of intentionality into my shop?” That's exactly what happened when Brian and Kim Walker took a dream trip to the British Virgin Islands with close friends. What started as a much-needed vacation quickly turned into a masterclass in customer experience, delivered by locals who clearly understood the value of creating moments worth remembering.From the high-energy, fully branded Sweet Ice Willie who made them feel like family, to a rum-slinging boat captain with a loyal dog and a serious social media game, to a beach bar owner who somehow remembered names hours later in a crowd of 100 each story is a reminder that it's not always the fanciest place that leaves the biggest impact. It's the people. The vibe. The way you're made to feel.This isn't just vacation talk, it's packed with real-life takeaways for shop owners who want to stand out in a sea of sameness. You'll laugh, you'll probably want to book a trip, but more importantly, you'll walk away inspired to examine every touchpoint of your customer journey. Because at the end of the day, the experience is the marketing.Thank you to our friends at RepairPal for providing you with this episode.

Melissa Alt and I covered so many topics in this episode. Join me as we discuss how to communicate for yourself in a new role, or in a new office with other providers and front desk personnel. It can be challenging, but I know you will discover something of value from this conversation. Melissa also takes a risk and talks about AUTONOMY. This word can sometimes feel a bit of a risk to talk about, but we should all be discussing it. Patients benefit from a paradigm shift and continued improvement of workforce models.
