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
