ASA is partnering with an auto repair industry leader and social media influencer @urmechanic to produce a series of videos aimed at building an online dialogue to help business owners solve everyday challenges in their shops.
The online “Garage Challenge” videos, hosted by Arizona shop owner Frank Leutz, will be produced twice a month.
They will be made available online at www.autoinc.org and through ASA’s Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and other social media accounts.
The goal is to produce needed information for shop owners and then for it to create discussion among ASA members. The first and second videos are now available.
“We want the industry to weigh in on these challenges and share their experiences and ideas for the betterment of your shop and the industry as a whole,” ASA Executive Director Ray Fisher said.
Leutz, host of Wrench Nation Car Talk Radio and owner of Desert Car Care in Chandler, Ariz., an ASA member-shop and Top Shop, is excited about the opportunity.
“Coming together discussing common, everyday garage concerns by way of sharing ideas for solutions is critical,” Leutz said. “My hope is that we can further the discussion in a quick and easy format to help each other out.”
Leutz’s efforts were recently featured in an article and a podcast on AutoInc. Online.
