This week, Jimmy Purdy from Shifting Gears Garage and the Gearbox Podcast joins Jeff Compton to talk about the delicate transition from technician to owner and the realities of running a successful auto repair shop. They cover everything from the nuts and bolts of transmission issues — think valve bodies and torque converters — to the grime and grind of day-to-day operations.
Jimmy also brings up shop expansion ideas, the challenges of setting new goals, and the art of mastering client service. Plus, Jimmy aims some common industry misconceptions and shines a light on the under-appreciated expertise of veteran techs.
Also, the guys discuss digital trends, from the role of YouTube in vehicle repair to platforms like TikTok and Facebook that are driving conversations and connections.
