Key Talking Points
- NAPA Shop of the Year 2021

- Being open to new ideas. Don't say “because that is the way we have always done it”, especially in a husband/wife team
- “Is there a better way to do it?”
- Not about being “right” but it’s about being efficient and trying different ways to get there
- Fixing cars doesn’t mean your business is automatically successful- building customer trust/service (DVI), processes/procedures
- Impact of social media- reviews, social media accounts, keeping relevancy, community involvement
