  • The Affordability Myth in Auto Repair: Rethinking How Service Advisors Present Repairs [THA 476]

    The Affordability Myth in Auto Repair: Rethinking How Service Advisors Present Repairs [THA 476]
    Mar 13 2026
    Thanks to our Partners, NAPA TRACS, Today's Class, KUKUI, and Pit Crew Loyalty Watch Full Video Episode "I think the push back is more in our head than it is in the pocketbook." In this episode, host Carm Capriotto talks with Andy Fiffick and Chris Letendre about the perceived affordability crisis in auto repair. Both guests challenge the idea that customers can’t afford repairs, suggesting that price resistance often stems from the service advisor's mindset rather than customer reality. The discussion highlights practical strategies for improving repair approvals, including repackaging repairs with different parts or warranty options, presenting financing as “payment option plans,” and avoiding the “Sophomore Jinx,” where advisors begin to pre-judge what customers can afford. They also address the “maintenance-free” myth promoted by automakers and encourage shops to proactively educate customers with long-term maintenance planning. Ultimately, the episode reinforces a key truth: auto repair is a relationship business. When shops build trust and focus on helping people, price objections become far less common.

  • Stop Winging Human Resources in Your Auto Repair Shop [RR 1082]

    Stop Winging Human Resources in Your Auto Repair Shop [RR 1082]
    Mar 10 2026
    Thanks to our Partners, NAPA Auto Care and NAPA TRACS Watch Full Video Episode In this episode, host Carm Capriotto sits down with Lola Schmidt, COO of Schmidt Auto Care, to discuss how independent auto repair shops can professionalize their human resources and management systems. Lola outlines a deliberate, multi-step hiring process built to eliminate desperate decisions and reduce candidate ghosting. It begins with a focused 5-10 minute phone screen designed to evaluate attitude, communication skills, and professionalism before investing time in in-person interviews. Once hired, new team members go through a structured two-week onboarding experience that intentionally integrates them into the shop’s culture and operations, complete with personalized touches and cross-training across the team. To establish clarity and transparency, Lola shares her “no gatekeeping” philosophy: providing candidates with a legally reviewed employee handbook before a formal offer is made. She also explains how to handle HR documentation and unemployment claims using a “no feelings, just facts” approach, relying on accurate records, clear timelines, and policies tied directly to the signed handbook. The result? Intentional systems that protect the culture, the employees, and the long-term health of the business. In this episode, you’ll learn: How to build a structured hiring process that prevents reactive decisionsWhy a short phone screen reduces ghosting and wasted timeHow to hire for attitude and cultural fit firstWhat an effective two-week onboarding plan looks likeWhy a legally reviewed employee handbook is essentialHow to document HR issues clearly and objectively The Everyday Educator: How Leaders Reinforce Learning [THA 458]: https://remarkableresults.biz/remarkable-results-radio-podcast/a458/ 4 Day Work Week and Our Own App [AW 146]: https://remarkableresults.biz/remarkable-results-radio-podcast/aw146/ Lauralee Schmidt, Schmidt Auto Care, Springboro, OH Thanks to our Partners, NAPA Auto Care and NAPA TRACS Learn more about NAPA Auto Care and the benefits of being part of the NAPA family by visiting https://www.napaonline.com/en/auto-care NAPA TRACS will move your shop into the SMS fast lane with onsite training and six days a week of support and local representation.

    Mar 6 2026
    Thanks to our Partners, NAPA TRACS, Today's Class, KUKUI, and Pit Crew Loyalty Watch Full Video Episode This episode explores the critical “delivery” phase of a 250,000 mile maintenance program, reframing the moment you hand the keys back as the continuation of a long-term professional relationship, not the end of a transaction. Host Carm Capriotto, joined by Brett Beachler and Rena Rennebohm, shares practical strategies to strengthen customer communication, elevate the shop experience, and proactively guide clients toward vehicle longevity. By focusing on the vehicle’s full lifecycle and scheduling the next visit before the customer leaves, shops can move beyond transactions to build loyalty, retention, and long-term profitability. What You’ll Learn: How advisor pods create a more comfortable, trust-building customer experienceWhy pre-appointment calls improve approvals and reduce estimate resistanceHow strong phone skills shape customer perception and confidenceWhy personal communication increases trust and average repair ordersHow to educate customers so they understand the value of maintenanceHow scheduling the next visit at delivery improves retentionWhy mileage-based follow-up systems drive better long-term resultsHow consistent, shop-wide processes strengthen culture and customer loyalty Brett Beachler, Beachler’s Vehicle Care & Repair, Peoria, IL.
