Key Talking Points
- Coaching- purpose, passion, joy. Becoming partners with their clients
- “When you put the key in the front door on the first day, how did you feel?”
- Marriages going flat because you spend all your time at the shop
- Finding someone that speaks your language- earning trust takes time
- Walking away- after 3-4 months if the client is not making changes
- Turning around a struggling shop- make changes until their habits
- Most shop owners back into pricing- reactive pricing instead of creative pricing
- Lose your ego and ask for help
- Every staff member should have targets/goals of performance that align with the company’s goals and vision. Don’t overcomplicate your goals.
- Fulfillment- hitting targets and having self-satisfaction, that’s how they know they’re doing their job right.
- Most employee issues are management issues
- Celebrate your goals together
- Pay isn’t the most important motivator- let your employees feel appreciated (team T-shirts, business cards)
- Mistakes need to happen, pattern failures are a choice. Making the same error twice is a mistake
- Efficiency- doing more with less
- Owners are the catalysts to push and challenge employees to grow
