Does anyone have any experience in operating an auto repair shop? I have some general questions about the industry and issues to look out for when evaluating a potential deal.

Hey Chris- I exclusively focus on M&A within the automotive aftermarket with a specific focus on collision repair. I'd love to connect.


Additionally, I host a weekly podcast for the biggest trade media publication in collision repair called the Collision Vision by Autobody News. Here's an episode that features a fellow searcher: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ep-17-attracting-outside-investors-to-your-body-shop/id1649609577?i=###-###-####

Is auto repair a business model where an owner/operator needs to have work experience in a shop to have credibility with employees? Earning credibility in any business takes time and effort, but seems especially difficult here.
