There's the right way, the wrong way, and the boss's way. 😂

That was Joe's entire onboarding experience at his first job as a young mechanic. About 15 seconds of instructions, and he was sent right back to work!

Thankfully, we've learned a thing or two about onboarding since then. 😏

Shop owners and technicians, what did YOUR first day on the job look like? We want to hear your stories! 👇

Still waiting for that perfect technician to apply to your job posting? 👀

Here's something to consider: The person you're looking for might already have a great job.

You're not just asking them to accept an offer. You're asking them to leave a paycheck, coworkers, and a work environment they already know.

🔗 If the best techs aren't applying, how DO you reach them? Matt Lofton and Joe Marconi share strategies for finding, attracting, and hiring great employees in the full episode of Monday Under the Hood: https://bit.ly/4z6dui7

If your best employee called in sick tomorrow, would the rest of your team know exactly what to do? 🤔

Too many auto repair shops rely on processes that exist only in someone's head. And when that person isn't there, everything slows down.

In Part 3 of our Systems That Run Without You series,Matt Loftonn andJoe Marconii break down how to turn those unwritten processes into simple, repeatable systems your entire team can follow.

🔧 Here's what we're covering today:

Why most SOPs end up collecting dust instead of getting used

How to document any shop process on just ONE page

The six essential elements every SOP needs

Why your employees should help write the processes they follow

Real examples for service advisors, technicians, parts, and front-office teams

How to make sure your documented processes actually work

You don't need a 50-page operations manual. You need clear, practical processes your team can use every day.

Just because your new employee isn't asking questions doesn't mean they've got everything figured out. 👀

Most new hires don't want to admit they're struggling, especially when they're trying to make a good first impression.

That's why regular check-ins are so important. A few minutes of conversation can help you catch problems early, answer questions, and give your new team members the support they need.

🎥 Are you giving your new hires everything they need to succeed? Matt and Joe share four steps to building a better onboarding process in the full episode: https://bit.ly/4BpAbPS

A full bank account doesn't automatically mean a full life.

A friend who works as a high school custodian. A musician worth $300 million. Doctors, business owners, and people from completely different walks of life.

Darrin Barney asked them all what made them successful. And despite their very different lives, they kept coming back to the same answer: being present with the people around them.

For auto repair shop owners, it's a good reminder that building a successful business should also mean having a life outside of it.
