Local Talent: The Entrepreneur’s Handbook Podcast - Episode The auto repair industry has changed dramatically over the last few years which means that if you own an auto repair business, you’ve had to stay nimble and smart just to keep the business going. On this episode of the Local Talent podcast, host Jason hands the mic over to the owner of a successful local chain of auto repair shops, Mark Roberts, to find out the entrepreneurial decisions he made that have helped him to survive and thrive. Mark tracks his journey into launching his own business, which has several twists and turns along the way. He explains how he kept the business afloat during the economic crash in 2008 and 2009 and how he pivoted into mechanical services. Mark and Jason chat about the best way to market your new local business and how online reviews can be a double-edged sword for small businesses. This episode also has plenty of car chat, with Mark telling Jason what car he drives and what kind of repairs he offers at the shop. You’ll also hear Mark’s professional opinion on whether you need to extend your car’s warranty! This episode is the first in a two-part special, and you won’t want to miss the second part!
