If you own a tow, repair, or collision shop—often in some combination—you know the drill: long hours, juggling dispatch, estimates, parts, payroll, and customer issues—firefighting instead of running by design. Despite the busyness, profits stay thin or unpredictable, pricing misses true costs, and cash‑flow pressure never lets up. The talent market is tight, making it hard to find qualified help—and harder to retain and train a reliable team.This class shows you how to break the cycle—build systems, price to profit, grow a team that sticks, and get your life back. What You’ll Take Away • Lead, don’t react — take control of the day. • Work on it, not in it — install systems and daily routines that end chaos. • Price to profit — align rates to costs, protect margins and cash flow. • Marketing that works — attract and keep the right customers. • Recruit, train, retain — build a reliable, accountable crew. • Time back — a shop that runs smoothly without you every minute. • Ready-to-use tools — leave with an implementation checklist you can start today. • Confidence to scale — make the operator → owner shift for good. Ready to stop firefighting and start steering? Reserve your seat. $150 per person advance registration and $250 starting April 20. Save $100 by registering now! Presented by Jim Saeli, DRIVE.
