Software isn't the solution - A new GMS will not fix your business (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this training topic, Andy dives into one of the most common questions in the independent sector: " What GMS should I use?" But a GMS is like a socket set, not a mechanic, and software isn't a standalone solution. Discover how asking the 'RIGHT' questions will tell you what's really broken.

The Feedback Formula (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Most garage owners only give feedback when they're already annoyed — and by then it comes out as a verdict, not a conversation.

AI in your garage - are you scaling stupidity? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It’s not if you will use AI, it’s how. This training topic shows garage owners how to use AI properly without replacing judgment, skill, or standards. Using a simple diagnostic job as the example, we explore three practical levels of AI: answers, augmentation, and automation. The session explains how AI recognises patterns, why context matters, and how poor prompts create poor answers. By the end, garage owners will know how to use AI to ask better questions, communicate more clearly, and build
