In a profession so greatly divided and independent, Remarkable Results Radio Podcasts are helping to unite the industry. Listeners who think they are alone, or their problems are unique, get to hear from others that many of the issues they are facing are universal.

Remarkable Results Radio has taken a fragmented industry with isolated talent and united them into one force to improve and enhance the Aftermarket Industry.
By capturing the knowledge and experience of so many professionals we are more prepared to tackle the issues facing us every day and into the future.

It wasn’t that many years ago, that people were very protective of what they know or how they might share it. Your podcast has blown the doors open on that and gives people a venue for being willing to have the new ‘openness’ about sharing their knowledge, experience and ultimately help others. You’ve done a phenomenal job and I hope the larger group of the industry can appreciate your work and the ground that you are breaking with the podcast.

Excerpt from 200th Episode Retrospective
The perfect format, the perfect content. That’s how I would summarize the Remarkable Results podcast. The mobility industry has so many platforms for information; web, video, press release, blogs and social, but none of those can be used in our cars! How crazy is it that an industry founded in transportation provides few options for information like Carm Capriotto and Remarkable Results Radio. The knowledge, wisdom and thought provoking discussions are a “must listen” each week. And guess what; they work just as well listening at the office, at the gym as they do on the road.
