Get repair and different shop or do repair themselves. Average RO started to drop. Started to understand behavior of customers when they come in and find out what they really want Zero dollar customers can have huge effect on shop’s productivity Discount if work is done at shop or ask them if they want to leave their car Resources: Thanks to Tom Palermo for his contribution to the aftermarket’s premier podcast.

The Panel: Judi Haglin and husband Dana own Haglin Automotive Inc., a full-service auto repair shop in Boulder, CO, and they’ve been leaders in the Boulder auto repair industry since 1981. Judi and Dana have a super working relationship and they pay attention to details, share a core value; ‘Everyone Speaks’ that is part of their strong business culture. They received Motor Age’s Top Shop honor in 2015. Key to their success is they know their roles and together make a strong business owner. They say, “Fixing cars is secondary, we are primarily solving our customer’s problems”. Look for Judi’s previous episodes (https://remarkableresults.biz/?s=haglin) . Tom Palermo is General Manager of Preferred Automotive Specialties in Jenkintown, PA. Tom is a world class Master Technician and a Certified ASE Advanced Level Technician, is certified from ASE including Master Auto, MasterTruck, Master Truck Equipment, Master School Bus, Master Collision, Master Transit Bus, L1, L2, C1, X1, P2, F1 Besides the 2015 NAPA/ASE Technician of the Year, Tom also earned the 2011 AAIA-ASE World Class Technician Award from the Automotive Aftermarket Industry Association, National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence, and the Best Tech of the Year award sponsored by WIX Filters. The majority of Tom’s business is fleets. Listen to Tom’s previous episodes  (https://remarkableresults.biz/?s=palermo) . Mark Roberts is the owner of Roberts Properties, Inc, Managing Partner of Total True Automotive dba Schertz Auto Service, Craftsman Building and Renovation LLC. He is also partnered with a Local Custom Home builder. Mark is also the former owner of Auto Collision Works. He grew up in Schertz and has been a resident since 1969. Mark also serves on the Board of Directors of Guadalupe Valley Electric Cooperative, Guadalupe Valley Home Services Corporation, and the Guadalupe Valley Economic Development Corporation. Listen to Mark’s previous episodes HERE (https://remarkableresults.biz/?s=mark+roberts) .   Key Talking Points: Tom Palermo Identify talent and put employees on a path to success early.  A good interview process can get the ball rolling here from the start.   There are people that need to get comfortable before they can show their full potential so be sure not to box anyone in.  The inverse to that would be to understand the limitations of each person and don’t put them in a position to fail. The ability to do this comes with time and experience. Don’t micromanage.  We have all done it and it has never worked.  In order to get employees to take ownership and lead, you have to give them the reigns and let them steer.  Develop a training program that gets them up to speed on your policies and procedures quickly. Once they are up to speed let them do their job.  Support them when they need it but don’t subvert the process by doing it/thinking for them. Use team building events and exercises to get everyone on the same page.  I like to utilize events done as a group as opportunities to build relationships between employees.  Having a good relationship outside of the day to day changes the way people interact in the heat of battle.  This is critical to groom today’s employees into tomorrows managers. These events could be anything that gets everyone together to learn and/or have fun.  ie training, fun events(track nights, dinner out, etc), lunch and learns, etc… Lead from the front!  The best way to motivate and encourage leadership qualities in employees is to make sure they understand that you are willing to do whatever has to be done to succeed.  When they understand you’d never ask them to do something you wouldn’t do or haven’t done, employees respect you and are more willing to take ownership and ultimately succeed. Mark Roberts 70:20:10 Principle 70% of learning happens through experience, such as daily tasks

The majority of Tom’s business is fleets. Listen to Tom’s previous episodes  (https://remarkableresults.biz/?s=palermo) .   Key Talking Points: Are we charging enough for diagnostics? What is your equipment and training worth? You need to get paid for the skills you have. You can’t compare yourself to the ‘free diagnostics’ places. You are a professional. Find the confidence in your skills and abilities and charge for that. Free advice is worth what you paid for it. Discover your worth.   Mark Colaw put an end to big box stores scan issue. He scans for free, however, he charges for diagnostics. We are educators and we need to tell people that so they see the value in what we charge. Have conversations with your customers. David offers a 10-minute preliminary inspection and would scan and pull the code and moves into a Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 diag depending on the results. This qualifies the customer. The labor rate spread in markets is too big. Increasing labor rates can make huge improvements to a business. Better pay and benefits Attract a higher quality technician Paid training for all Stronger better systems Improve equipment Improve marketing ASE certification Plus many more……. Labor rates are geographical and demographic driven. Labor rates are too low in the industry. Shops cannot bad mouth each other. Fairness must rule. Doctors or lawyers do not bad mouth each other. It is called professional courtesy. We need unity in the industry. We all benefit. Create a community. Support each other with an idea exchange. Collaborate! To help with any issues inside their business! Tool exchange! Knowing your numbers, P & L and Cash Flow will help you understand what you need to charge and why. Key performance indicators are important, however, how to improve them is the vital part of knowing your numbers. Systems, Operations, and Procedures should drive your numbers that have the biggest effect on your business.   Educate your customer on the complete transaction and what they should expect from the warranty for the repair. There may be more to the repair then they authorized, so educating them will prevent any follow-up issue that may arise. You could be dealing with a moving target at times.
