I just had a great chat with Marc J Bernstein and Ang Onorato, MSS on the Founders Forum Radio Show and Podcast. We talked about my journey as an entrepreneur and lessons I've learned over the years about overcoming challenges and building a successful business. All of their podcast episodes are amazing, filled with gold nuggets of real world practical wisdom. Check it out.

Welcome to the first episode of the Blue Check Shops interview series, powered by Technician Find. Over the past six years, we've generated over 80,000 applications for 156 independent auto and diesel repair shops across the U. S. And I've noticed that the top shops that we work with, who were able to hire within a few weeks, do things differently. We would send a bunch of applications to one shop, and they'd hire in a few weeks. We'd send a bunch of applications to another shop, and they would hire in a month or two or not at all. My goal with this series is to pull back the curtain and share the secrets of these top shops so that other independent shops can gain from this wisdom, hire great team members faster, and retain them longer. Show Notes: In this episode of the Blue Check Shops interview series, @Chris Lawson talks with Technician Find Community member @Phil Webster, owner of Webster Tire and Auto Service in Teutopolis, Illinois. Phil shares his wisdom on how to quickly hire and retain great technicians.
