This month, we connected with Ryan Taylor, CEO and founder of BodyShop Booster, to learn his best trigger marketing tips for 2021. If you are a Certified Collision Repair Provider and strive for a great relationship with your community, Ryan’s visionary tips will take your marketing team to the next level! Ryan got his start in the collision industry as a teenager and has dedicated his career to modernizing the industry through enhanced technology. While Ryan emphasizes “going virtual” with BodyShop Booster’s convenient photo text estimates and ringless voicemail (to assist with 24/7 sales on your shop’s website) he considers great communication an essential part of the collision industry and post-collision process. These are the top 5 ways to communicate with your customers directly and through your marketing materials.
The biggest problem marketers have today is that they focus on the body shop and not the consumer.” — Ryan Taylor, BodyShop Booster
What Is a Human Marketing Trigger?
One of the concepts that Ryan has become known for is his discussion of the marketing triggers rooted into our human psyche. Trigger marketing means sending messages and notifications after an event, to help reach customers throughout their journey. When you connect with a customer that has just experienced a highly stressful auto accident, it’s essential that you help them to feel at ease. Your team can accomplish this through the words that they use to educate your community about the fully documented Certified Repairs that you offer. In addition to broad messages, the specific words that your employees use to describe your business or the service you provide will have a major impact on how your customers view your business.
The Top 5 Consumer Marketing Triggers
Negative words create negative connotations, even if the implication is subtle. Proactively choose positive words that put your customers at ease. Every word that you choose is its own powerful trigger. Below, discover the best way to positively communicate with your customers and focus on confidence, safety, care, knowledge, and more!
1. Instead of FEAR, Focus on CONFIDENCE
Train your technicians to communicate with your customers about the repair process. Ask new and returning customers alike if they have any questions and actively share your credentials as a Certified Repair Provider. Confident body language and a reassuring smile may be all it takes to put an anxious driver at ease.
Tip: Thinking about a collision can conjure up unpleasant emotions in many people, especially those who have just experienced one while driving. Remember that your collision repair business can restore peace of mind and normalcy to the lives of those who may be fresh from an accident.
2. Instead of DANGER, Focus on SAFETY
When your customers choose your for their Collision Care needs, they have made an important decision. Every driver wants a safe repair from a qualified Provider and (by insisting on a Certified Repair) they have an easy way to ask for the best repair possible. Let your community know that you prioritize use of factory parts, and have the correct tools, training, and equipment to properly repair their vehicle. This will move their thoughts from the danger of the accident, to the safety of the repair their vehicle received.
Tip: Remind your customers that a fully documented Certified Repair can help to preserve the fit, finish, functionality, durability, value, and safety of their vehicle.
3. Instead of STRESS, Focus on CALM
Add ease to your customer’s post-collision experience by letting them know that their vehicle is safely in the hands of a Certified Collision Repair Provider. Encourage them to take advantage of your white-glove services, including complimentary pick-up, delivery and rental car arrangements. Also, for in-person customers, make your shop a pleasant place to visit with a clean, well-lit lobby, refreshments, and friendly staff.
Tip: Auto accidents are tough enough before the repair process begins. As a member of the Assured Performance Network, you already know that you offer a “five-star” process. By offering virtual photo estimates or calmly welcoming consumers to your body shop when they may already be dealing with a stressful situation, they are more likely to recommend you to others!
4. Instead of UNCERTAINTY, Focus on KNOWLEDGE
“Speak to the consumer’s experience instead of equipment and technology terms that the consumer may not understand,” says Taylor. “Use emotional words that empathize with them.” This means that you can promote your community’s confidence in your business by talking about their repair journey in simple terms. Avoid industry jargon, which may add confusion, and speak to consumers in terms that anyone can understand.
Tip: Your customers may not know the first thing about a collision repair. For many people, their vehicle is their second-largest investment. Handing every customer a Certificate and fully documented invoicing after their Certified Repair can arm them with a sense of knowledge.
5. Instead of THE UNKNOWN, Focus on CERTIFICATION
Emphasize the value of fully documented Certified Repair invoicing that gives your customers an easy-to-read final invoice that shows the repair details they care about most, including factory parts use and more!
Tip: At an ordinary body shop, a customer might receive an estimate and not truly understand what was actually completed during the repair. A fully documented Certified Repair invoice from a Certified Collision Care Provider is transparent and easy-to-read, so consumers are confident that they’re not being taken for a ride. (Pun intended.)
The Bottom Line
The most important part of Ryan Taylor’s marketing approach is Empathy. The next time that you communicate with a customer, listen carefully to the words you use to walk them through the collision process. Focus on positive experiences, convenience, safety, and understanding. You may find that in addition to their vehicle, you will also help to repair their peace of mind.

My Experience at Nissan & INFINITI’s Two-Day Scanning & Calibrations Training Courses
In early December 2020, I had the pleasure of taking Nissan & INFINITI’s scanning and calibrations course in Jacksonville, Florida. The experience opened my eyes to the future-forward procedures that must be followed after a vehicle is involved in an accident.
ADAS-equipped vehicles are being repaired today by shops across the country and whether you currently perform scanning and calibrations on ADAS systems now or plan to in the future, this class is a must-take. It can help any Nissan/INFINITI Certified Centers make sure that calibrations are being performed correctly so the vehicle meets industry safety standards when it gets back on the road.
Nissan, Collision Advice, and AsTech have done a phenomenal job of putting together an immersive training event for technicians that tackles real problem-solving in a shop environment. Every team will benefit from the course.

Halladay Auto Group’s Good News & Big Goals in Wyoming’s Biggest City
How Halladay Auto Group Beat Their 2020 Sales Goals!
Is your collision repair business so in demand, that people are advance-booking their appointments online? Discover how Halladay Auto Group of Cheyenne, Wyoming beat their 2020 sales goals and became a customer-requested collision business with more than enough repairs to keep their staff engaged and business thriving. As our “Good News Story” for February, Halladay Auto Group has leveraged their Certifications, met customer demand, and kept their community feeling safe and cared for when they needed it most!
Discover the History Behind Halladay Auto Group
Founded by Carl Halladay in 1944, over 7 decades ago, Halladay Auto Group or “Halladay’s” as it is locally known, became synonymous with quality products and repairs, impeccable customer service, and a steadfast dedication to the community of Cheyenne. To this day, it remains locally owned and operated. Now boasting over 100 employees at 3 locations across the city, Halladay’s specializes in providing a vehicle for nearly every driver and every occasion, from rugged imports perfect for traversing the state’s Rocky Mountains to luxury sedans. Its premier collision repair facility is located just a half-mile away from the Wyoming Historic Governors’ Mansion.
Halladay Auto Group’s mission is to exceed their customers’ “needs and expectations” and attain “the highest levels of customer satisfaction.” They are Certified by Assured Performance Collision Care, Kia, and Nissan. They also have a Gold Class rating by I-CAR. Judging by the number of Wyomingites who go to Halladay’s for their repairs, their body shop is meeting its goals tenfold!
How Halladay Auto Group Uses Bad Weather for Good Business
Shop Manager, J.R. Cirillo, and Business Development Manager, Bekah Foster, also credit Mother Nature with their success. “We are thankful that our community relies on us, no matter what the season.” explains Cirillo. Whether wind or hail, the shop meets sales goals for any given quarter.
Of course, the weather is not the only source of business at Halladay Motors’ body shop. The shop manager, J.R. Cirillo (who recently celebrated 49 years in the collision industry) credits their Assured Performance Collision Care Certifications with attracting customers, as well as their commitment toproviding their technicians with the tools, training, and technology necessary to properly repair each vehicle.
How Halladay Auto Group Unlocked the Power of Certification
“Being Certified,” Cirillo explains, “means that we have been independently inspected and have what it takes to properly repair every vehicle. It’s a good selling point for customers, especially when they buy their vehicle through our dealership and know that our collision shop is Certified.”
He also credits the shop’s success with their ability to offer every customer a Certified Repair. Cirillo believes that this accreditation also helps with insurers, as Halladay’s shop is recognized by all of the state’s major insurance providers. “They wouldn’t give us their direct repair status if we weren’t Certified and in good standing.”
How Halladay Auto Group Cares for Its Community
Halladay’s steadfast dedication to their community is the reason that they contribute to over 100 charities around Cheyenne. Bekah Foster explains, “Nine times out of ten, if someone has a fundraiser, they come to Halladay’s. We want to be a community partner and more than just an auto dealer. We truly believe in giving back to our community.”
Part of that community leadership comes from Halladay Auto Group’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic. “We are very fortunate,” explains Foster, “to have remained busy and open for business. We quickly implemented health and cleanliness standards which have proven to be successful.”
“Our customers adapted and our employees are doing a great job as well,” Foster says. “We work together as a team and create a positive environment. As far as mask mandates, we are following all guidelines set by Wyoming’s governor.”
How Halladay Auto Group Learns from Its Past & Plans for the Future
Turning their thoughts to the future, Cirillo and Foster are both prepared to smash last year’s sales goals and raise the bar even higher for quality Collision Care in Cheyenne. While this last year may not have been an easy time to operate a small, locally-owned business, Halladay Auto Group continues to be a best-in-class Certified Collision Repair Provider and offer “Certified Repairs.” This commitment allows them to embrace their community more closely than ever.

Leading National MSOs Commit to 100% Assured Performance Certification
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE February 16, 2021
Leading National MSOs Commit to 100% Assured Performance Certification
Aliso Viejo, CA, February 16, 2021—Today, Assured Performance announced that two leading national MSOs participating in their Certified Repair Provider Network have committed to 100% of their locations becoming Certified. Already touting the highest percentage of certified locations nationwide, their commitment to 100% compliance establishes Joe Hudson’s Collision Center and Crash Champions as undisputed market leaders. As part of their overall commitment, their locations will feature a Collision Care service experience with the consumer option of receiving a fully documented “Certified Repair.” Their strategy gives them a competitive market advantage throughout North America among large multi-shop operators (MSOs).
Joe Hudson’s Collision Center has 119 locations in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia. Cameron Dickson, the COO of Joe Hudson’s Collision Center, explains, “Our decision to be 100% Certified is an extension of our commitment to provide all of our customers with an excellent repair experience in a timely manner at every one of our locations … rather than only a select few.”
To ensure the integrity of their certification, the onsite inspection and internal auditing process is consistent with all repairers certified by Assured Performance. Each of their hundreds of locations are physically inspected using a patented geo-tracking app that electronically documents proof that they meet or exceed the highest industry standards. The app records images and even video to provide proof that the repairer possesses and employs the right tools, equipment, training, and facility modifications necessary to repair technologically advanced vehicles. The equipment serial number and model information are matched to a list of equipment that meets the manufacturers’ specifications. Secondarily, all proof is scrutinized through multiple steps and approvals. All electronic proof is safeguarded and maintained online and is accessible by participating OEMs and other collaborative entities. The adoption of the Certified Repair Provider standards and tools help to ensure that consumers receive a proper and safe repair.
Cameron Dickson further says, “Being a Certified Collision Repair Provider aligns with our mission statement—to give our customers the best possible repairs. The training and recognition that accompany Assured Performance Collision Care and Certification programs help us to fulfill our commitment to every customer.”
Crash Champions, whose brand continues to grow throughout the United States, is another key MSO committed to a Certified future. They recently made big news with their merger with Pacific Elite Collision Centers in Southern California … as well as the acquisition of Orange County’s powerhouse Fountain Valley Bodyworks’ two locations. Their growing footprint of 60 locations currently covers six states including Illinois, Ohio, Missouri, Wisconsin, Iowa, and California. They have also set their strategy on 100% Certified locations and offering their consumers a Certified Repair option.
Natalie Zajc, V.P. of Marketing, explains, “Manufacturer certifications have been the Crash Champions organization’s business focus over the last five years. As a company, we are dedicated to providing the safest repairs in the industry.”
Matt Ebert, Crash Champions CEO, elaborated that offering a Certified Repair is a key part of their larger organizational mission and said, “Our goal is to provide our team with the best tooling, training, and facilities so that every employee can maximize their true potential. As vehicle technology is changing rapidly, we remain laser focused on recruiting and retain only the best employees that the industry has to offer.”
Scott Biggs, Founder and Assured Performance Chairman of the Board, stated, “These leading MSOs, Joe Hudson’s Collision Center and Crash Champions, are setting the standards by which all others will be measured. They are employing a powerful market strategy by leveraging our multi-OEM Certification program and focusing on the highest quality repairs and customer satisfaction.”

Aliso Viejo, CA, February 9, 2021— Assured Performance, a non-profit consumer advocacy organization and internationally recognized Certifying entity for the collision repair industry, announced today the introduction of “Fully Documented Invoicing,” a new critical feature and function to their patent pending web application, RepairDOC. Now, vehicle owners and their insurers can receive a transparent and fully documented “invoice” that is system generated and largely automated. The final invoice, generated through RepairDOC, includes electronic proof of the key components of the repair: where it was repaired, how, with what, by whom, and if the vehicle was fully functional upon delivery (via scan code reports).
Assured Performance explains that “documented invoicing” is essential for all parties to address several major issues including quality, accountability, and liability exposure. Traditional estimating practices are filled with cost shifting repair and part substitutions that create severe inaccuracy, leaving the repairer and all related parties exposed to liability, without the ability to prove that a proper repair was performed.
Many of these issues have become paramount since the John Eagle Lawsuit settlement in October 2017. However, despite the serious consequences of that lawsuit, few changes have been made to the claims and repair process as a result. To compound the legacy issues, use of photo and code generated estimation exposes an even greater challenge to validate the actual damage and repair. The fully documented invoice system, RepairDOC, addresses these issues. Automated data validation makes the documentation process easy and efficient. RepairDOC relies heavily on data integration, with existing systems to auto-populate the “system-generated” final invoice following blockchain technology principles.
RepairDOC, which focuses on documentation, is not an estimating or price negotiation tool. The agreed-upon price of the final repair is unbuckled from the documentation and remains unchanged. The benefit is an invoice that can serve as evidence to protect the repairer, technician, insurer, and all other related or necessary parties. Another major benefit is that repair data will be far more accurate over time, which is critical for benchmarking and key performance analysis (KPI).
To make the documentation process thorough, yet quick and easy, RepairDOC leverages API data integration with all other touchpoints, including IPs, parts procurement, training history, scan data, etc. The critical data is auto-populated, requiring very little manual entry. Technicians even have a smart app that they use to document their work.
As an added benefit and value, when the documented “proof” meets the required criteria, the repair will automatically qualify as a “Certified Repair” for that specific vehicle through the Assured Performance system. According to research, a “Certified Repair” represents a far greater perceived value for consumers and creates confidence in vehicle value retention.
Assured Performance’s comprehensive Network of nearly 3,000 Certified Repair Providers now has full access and use of the new Invoice generating system provided through their ShopOps web portal.
“A fully-documented Certified Repair Invoice addresses some of the most critical issues exposed during the John Eagle case by providing proof of how the repair was performed,” stated Scott Biggs, founder, and Board Chairman, “This enhancement is essential for liability and enhancing consumer confidence, as well as repair integrity, data accuracy, and the ability to offer a ‘Certified Repair’.”

Opinion Perspective: A Final Estimate Vs. A Fully-Documented Invoice
BACKGROUND – OPINION PERSPECTIVE
Today, most repairers provide a “final estimate,” which is based largely on the final price negotiated, but not necessarily on how the vehicle was repaired. Changes to the estimate impacts hours, parts purchase options, and other costs that affect the bottom-line price. To compensate, this habitual process is filled with cost shifting, conquesting, substitutions, and omission. This results in insufficient documentation of exactly how the vehicle was repaired, regardless of the price and historical data (which is often inaccurate).
In contrast to the current process, a “fully documented invoice” is just that – a final invoice that includes electronic documentation of exactly what was done to the vehicle and what parts were used, regardless of the price. The system introduced by Assured Performance unbuckles the “how to” from the “how much.” By separating these two elements in the final documentation process, the highest integrity of the repair can be achieved. The critical distinction is that the electronic documentation assures consumers and their insurers that the vehicle was properly repaired. In addition, vehicle manufactures now have confidence that the vehicle carrying their brands is safe and functioning, with official repair procedures properly followed. Possibly the greatest benefit to repairers, their technicians, and insurers, is that there is proof of how the vehicle was repaired as evidence to protect them, should they be faced with a lawsuit.
The fully documented invoice also supports the need and use of repair procedures, scanning and calibration, and professionally-trained technicians using the proper tools and equipment. Nothing about the invoice documentation changes the final agreed-upon price of the repair, which was established by the estimate. In effect, this new process allows a clear and distinct separation of “how to” from the “how much,” while acknowledging that both exist. This separation also falls in line with court precedence established by the NY Supreme Court ruling in the landmark case of North State Custom versus Progressive Insurance (2011).
While many insurers’ Direct Repair Programs require a “Final Estimate,” the nomenclature used indicates that it is still an “estimation” and not reflective of the total final amount even though it may be. Even more so, the final estimate most often lacks comprehensive electronic documentation that could serve as evidence and protect all parties in a court of law. Unfortunately, the current process has allowed all parties to maintain an artificial degree of “plausible deniability.” Looking forward, a change to the transparency of final work product and output of the repair is essential considering changing vehicle technology and reliance on photo estimating and other forms of digital and data generated estimates. Consumer and their insurers want to know with certainty that they got what they needed and paid for. Repair integrity is essential to the functionality and safety of the vehicle, as well as maintaining the vehicle’s value.

Fine-tune your marketing tactics, expand your social media presence, and stand out from the competition. This is how you can use ShopOps and On Demand Digital Marketing to let your community know that you’re a Certified Repair Provider of excellence.
Jump on the Social Bandwagon:
Digital marketing may still feel new to you, but it is often the secret ingredient for boosting brand awareness and revenue. Facebook and Instagram ads, in particular, allow you to geo-target your customers based on their interests, demographics, and behavior with your services. Read more about how Marquis Auto Body used On Demand Marketing in Shop Ops and went VIRAL! According to Fender Bender, 34% of body shops that post on social media – even just once a week – report an annual revenue of over $2.5 million, compared to just 29% of body shops that never post. Social = Sales! Want to post more but don’t have a designated social media person for your business? ShopOps makes it easy! Download sharable print and social media posts here.
Approve Your Press Release … & We Will Distribute It!
Your OEM Certified status, facility modifications & the Certified Repairs that you offer matter … and the public should know about them! A press release will alert consumers in your market about your Certified Repair Provider status. We make it easy! Select your favorite statement in our ShopOps’ marketing portal (ShopOps > Marketing > Press Releases). Access customizable press release templates and approve them for us to send, in just a few easy clicks.
Review and Remodel Your Website:
Just as your storefront welcomes your community to your business, your locator website is your business’s digital front porch. Most of us have visited a business URL that looks like it hasn’t been updated since 1999 and we may view the business accordingly. Visit ShopOps to update your Landing Page (ShopOps > Marketing > Landing Pages) and bring your OEM & Auto Body Locator website into 2021. Customers will want to book an appointment or receive a free estimate, when they interact with your updated locator page. Select one of our customizable design templates, enter a description, add photos, and create a polished & seamless online presence that prospective customers will appreciate. Best of all, your OEM Certifications and Certified Repair Provider status will be visible and searchable.
Boost Your Search Results with SEO:
SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization and is a critical aspect of digital marketing. The more relevant the content that you have on your website is, the more search engines like Google will “bump up” your standing in the search results. Most people choose their collision repair providers from the top search results and (at least!) the first page. Your front page status can make a massive difference in consumer awareness without a massive advertising budget. Thoroughly fill in your social media profiles, Landing Page details, add your Certified Repair Provider status, and list your OEM Certifications on all of your marketing efforts.
And Share Your Efforts With Your Customers:
A strong SEO campaign can rapidly grow the number of new business inquiries that you receive. As your business begins to pop up on the front page of Google, continue to link to your Auto Body Locatorpage and encourage your customers to share your designated web page and locator page on their own social media pages (especially when they recommend you to friends and family). The time you invest up front will result in many more dollars down the line.
Consider Your Branding:
Think of your business as a brand. Brand marketing emphasizes consistent use of graphics, colors, and slogans to enforce your brand’s standing with consumers. By creating a strong public identity that your community recognizes, repetition will build trust. Even better, trust creates revenue and attracts those in search of quality touch-less care from a Certified Repair Provider. Commit to your logo, slogan, and an “official” palette of bold and attractive color hues … then use your branding on everything, from business cards to social media websites … or on cups & t-shirts!
Go to ShopOps to Access Logos Showing Your OEM Certifications!
You are allowed to use the designated logos for the manufacturers you are Certified with in conjunction to your marketing. To locate and download your approved-use OEM logos from your ShopOps account, go to AssuredPerformance.net, login, and select Marketing > Certification Logos. These same logos will be shown by manufacturers and on AutoBodyLocator.com, when customers search for a Certified Collision Care Provider.
Publish New Social Content Regularly:
More than any generation before them, Millennials and Generation Xers like to conduct research before they make a decision. While you don’t have to post daily, regular updates will let your audience know that you are a Certified Repair Provider that they can trust and rely upon. Experiment with your social content! Post lively photos or a promotional “merch” giveaway, then add testimonials given by your satisfied customers. Encourage your followers to tag you on social media and review your business on Google. Social media can help new followers become raving fans and customers! Stuck on what to post? Introduce your employees, talk about your company’s history, highlight completed jobs, or discuss the convenient contact-less pick up and delivery services that you offer. Use social media to let customers know that they can submit virtual or online photo estimates from the comfort of their home. Above all,engage, engage, engage!
Use Instagram Stories:
Think of Stories as content that will receive more immediate attention than typical posts, which they will … according to market research. Not only are stories entertaining, but they also enable you to ask questions of your followers. Your audience can vote in polls and surveys, while you cross-publish on Facebook for added reach. The immediate nature of the medium (most “stories” expire after just 24 hours) means that you can post on the fly, without drastic editing. Start by sharing a walkthrough of the Certified Repair process or explain why a Fully Documented Certified Repair is essential for high-tech vehicles. Consumers love transparency and authenticity!
Revive Traditional Advertising:
Your busy customers are not only on social media. They also go on road trips, watch TV, and go to the dentist. For this reason, classic marketing methods like postcard mailers, billboards, commercials, and event signage still perform well. Download Certified Repair trifolds, postcards, and flyers from ShopOps > Marketing > On Demand Marketing. Whether you sponsor a Little League team or fill the local airwaves with your company’s catchy jingle, you will be able to get eyes and ears on your brand and reach new customers. By using logos (your own and logos for the OEMs you are Certified with) and graphics consistently, consumers will gain awareness of your brand.
Share Your Good:
Whether your business is locally-owned or part of a widely recognized MSO, your customers generally live near the body shop that they give their business to. Give back to the community via charity donations like NABC Recycled Rides, local canned food drives, or event sponsorship. Not only will this make the world a better place, but your business will receive free publicity and may even reach an entirely new audience. Another plus to consider: Tax deductions!
Make Your Lobby Pinterest-Perfect:
According to a study by ResearchGate, first impressions matter, as they set the stage for whether or not the public will view your business and staff as Collision Care Experts who take pride in their work or an average collision repair body shop. When the public enters your facility, wow them with a clean, bright, and cheerful interior where they will enjoy passing time. Highlight your Certified Repair marketing materials, OEM signage, and offer high-speed WiFi. While a well-stocked coffee station will go a long way toward boosting customer satisfaction, so will touch-less pick up & delivery options … complete with a professional, printed Certified Repair Invoice & Certificate.
Add Some Flair to Your Walls:
If the benefits of an attractive lobby didn’t convince you, tip #18 will. One of the most appealing and highly regarded aspects of being a Certified Repair Provider is being able to display your Certified signage on the walls of your business. Showcasing the highly regarded Assured Performance and manufacturer Certifications that you attained is a win for your staff and customers. Your official signage will featurebold aluminum plating and modern designs that will catch your consumers’ eyes and show them how much quality Collision Care & being a Certified Repair Provider means to you.
Study Your Reviews & Learn from Them:
Remember the adage, “Sticks and stones may break my bones?” Redefine the phrase to be positive, as feedback can help you to transform your business. Use lackluster reviews to help you gauge what your business is doing well and what areas you can improve. If you do receive a negative review, personally reach out to the poster. Acknowledging a reviewer’s negative experience with your human touch may remedy the situation. They may even replace their bad review with a positive one!
Experiment with Email Marketing:
Now that you have a social media presence, your OEM signage displayed, Certified Repair marketing materials in your lobby, and your OEM & Auto Body Locator page updated via ShopOps, it’s time to redefine your use of email. While social media can be used weekly, consider supplementing your consumer connection through a monthly email campaign. This will deliver informative analytics about your messaging and keep your business fresh in the minds of consumers. Not sure what to share? Subscribe to the non-profit side of Assured Performance (Collision Care) and share our consumer facing Collision Care blog content! This will allow you to educate your audience and you can even promote star employees, share Certified Repair images, or even remind recipients of holiday hours and seasonal clock changes. Another great addition to email is video! Include video content in your email to increase click-through rates by as much as 300%.
Get to Know Your Competitors:
A little friendly competition never hurts anyone, and according to Inc.com, getting to know your local competitors can even help you to make smarter business decisions. Stay aware of other repair providers in your market and stand out from the pack by offering Fully Documented Certified Repairs that consumers can select without even leaving their home. When you review the social media pages of local competitors, notice the clientele engaging with them and what they are promoting. Then, consider what you can do differently or methods and practices that you might want to adopt? Facebook allows you to track up to 5 competing websites, which will give you great insight into their success or limited scope. Once you understand what your competition does well, you’ll have a head start on doing even better as a member of the most advanced repair capable Network in North America and Canada.
Define Your Market Niche–and Let the World Know:
Does your business try to be all things to all people or have you cornered your local market by promoting the manufacturers you are Certified with? While you want to welcome all potential customers, market your shop as a Certified Repair Provider that specializes in repairing late model vehicles. By attracting great reviews and community-wide attention, you may even attract out-of-town business! Assured Performance has added new partner OEM brands, even within the least year! (Repairer Driven News)
Go to Social Media School:
Don’t be intimidated by Facebook’s broad range of advertising tools for business pages. Instead, try to advance schedule your page’s posts, watch online tutorials, or connect with your Assured Performance Regional Director for support as you offer Certified Repairs. Advance scheduling social posts will help you to remain organized and feel like a seasoned professional. Designate someone at your business to update your social pages regularly and frequently visit the On Demand Marketing (ODM) section of ShopOps. New content is continually added to Shopops (ODM) and downloading content is not a one time event. Once you see what your customers respond to the most, you will be able to better target what works, delete what does not, and experiment your way to success!
Enlist and Engage:
Competition is tough. Put all your new marketing capabilities to work and join or share a deal with your local Chamber of Commerce. Social networks extend beyond websites and apps. Building personal face-to-face connections will help you establish lasting success. In addition, share consumer friendly industry updates brought to you by CollisionCare.org.

Learn why your ShopOps Business Management tools will become your favorite business companion in 2021.
Put It on Paper:
Writing a business plan will act as a roadmap to help your business achieve its goals. As you complete your ShopOpsLanding Page description, stop and consider your business’s mission statement and use that as inspiration for your business plan. Consider whether or not you plan to open up a second (or third … or fourth) facility and how much funding might you need down the road? Don’t put off planning for the future. Instead, create a digital plan using the business tools and ProForma found in ShopOps.
Check the Books:
The new year is a great time to review your goals and finances with a fresh perspective. Be realistic about the wins and losses of your budgeting in 2020 and what you’d like to change for 2021. As always, visit ShopOps and explore your Business Improvement tab. Update your Business Profile, complete a Best Practice Assessment, view your Business Improvement Report, look for Buying Opportunities, complete a Pro Forma, and more!
Plan for the Unexpected:
While no one expected the changes that 2020 brought, one lesson for all of us is that it’s essential to plan for emergencies and unexpected changes. Consider adding additional assets to a reserve account that will carry you through three months without revenue. Even if you start small, every dollar you save brings you closer to that goal. (Entrepreneur)
Complete Your Best Practices Assessment:
Are you doing everything that you can to maximize your facility’s resources? Audit your business with a ShopOps Best Practices Assessment that measures the success of every aspect of your collision care business, from accounting procedures to customer care to equipment maintenance. Our detailed assessment may be all that you need to discover new ways to stand out from the competition and grow revenue, such as becoming a community leader and offering Certified Repairs.
Prepare for the Next Season:
Summer may be thought of as the season to relax, but while you’re having fun in the sun, your competitors are preparing for “collision repair season.” Use the summer months to speed ahead of the curve by studying industry trends, making sure your technicians are trained and up-to-date, and investing in cutting-edge equipment with a long view of the future. Don’t only focus on this week or next, use your down time constructively. Ready to receive RepairDOC training? Our Regional Directors will schedule a virtual tutorial with your technicians.
Prioritize Your 2022 Wish List:
Quality collision care equipment can be costly, especially with today’s ever evolving industry innovations. Before drafting your shop’s shopping list, review your business planning tools in ShopOps, audit your current facility, and determine what will bring your business the most success going forward. Focus on the tools and equipment that will be the best investments for your business and help you gain additional Certifications. ShopOps Technology Training & Education can help you make informed decisions about your future needs (and wants).
Make Smart Money Moves with ProForma:
Assured Performance Network’s ProForma, found in ShopOps, was designed to help Certified Collision Repair Providers make informed financial decisions. A Pro Forma is a confidential tool that lays out how changes will impact your bottom line. Pro Forma modeling provides you with a “what if” calculator to illustrate the financial impact prior to making an investment or strategic change to your existing business model. Study trends from your previous year, including revenue, debt, and accounts receivable. Especially after a tumultuous year like 2020, preparation will help your business be ready for anything.
Review and Revise Your Business Plan:
Whether yours is years old or brand new (because you followed Tip #25!), your business plan shouldn’t be a one time event.

Nurture Your Staff:
Did you know job satisfaction can affect your bottom line? According to a recent study, happy salespeople closed 37% more deals than their less content counterparts and companies with happy staff produce 20% more revenue than their competitors. Encourage open communication with management, recognize a job well done, and encourage education that keeps your staff on a career-track & may all boost staff morale. ShopOps’ human resources tools can you get where you need to go!
Support New Talent and Build a Staff that Lasts:
Thanks to your new marketing techniques & reputation as a Collision Care provider, your business is attracting more customers than ever. This means that it is time to grow your workforce. As a Certified Collision Repair Provider, choose staff that are well trained, willing to learn, and interested in the future of Collision Care.
Recognize Your Staff’s Individual Talents:
Perhaps your senior-level technician is great with computers or your receptionist went above and beyond for a new customer. Corporate guru like John B, suggest that accolades foster “a collaborative environment where high performers are eager to teach their peers how to achieve similar results.” In other words, your industrious technician might inspire his or her coworkers to add to their current skill set.
Take your next meeting to the streets: While you may prefer Microsoft or Android to Apple, legendary CEO, Steve Jobs, was famous for conducting all of his meetings on foot. He believed that walking at a brisk pace generated more inventive ideas and conversations than simply sitting in an office. While your professional role at your business may not allow much time away from the office, try to squeeze a 15-minute walking break into each work day and discover how it affects your productivity. (Inc.com) This brief break from the office may leave you invigorated and refreshed!
Update and Circulate Your Employee Handbook:
An Employee Handbook is an important HR tool that shows your staff that you care for their well-being. It gives clarity to rules and safety guidelines. While you’re working on your employee handbook, also update the HR & Skill Set-Up tab in ShopOps!
Schedule Regular Employee Reviews:
Good news about bad news: A LinkedIn survey recently found that 92% of employees surveyed said receiving constructive feedback, when delivered appropriately, would improve their job performance. Once every few months, take ten minutes to appraise each of your employees one-on-one. Ask them to come prepared with feedback for you, as well, because constructive criticism can help to improve management. Speak to them frankly about their strengths and areas of improvement, all while rewarding work that is well done. This will give all parties involved the ability to problem-solve and benefit from honest dialogue. Be prepared for their thoughts on your daily operations as well.
Keep Your Team Healthy:
A bright, clean, and hygienic business not only looks great, but it also helps to protect your staff and employees from germs and safety hazards. Sanitize high-traffic areas regularly, especially bathrooms, and send home any staff members who show signs of serious or contagious illnesses. By now, essential workers are familiar with Covid-19 safety protocols. However, even in the absence of worries about the coronavirus, encourage your employees to make their health – and the health of your customers – a top priority.
Encourage New Ideas (from Employees):
Whether you’re talking to a seasoned technician or a brand new apprentice, every member of your team brings his or her own unique perspective to your business. If you find yourself stuck, when evaluating a problem, and desire a fresh solution, ask your staff. They may surprise you with their observations. Your inquiry will also show that you value their opinions, which will boost staff confidence in a major way.
Formalize Your HR Processes:
A good human resources (HR) team can make the difference between a productive, profitable company and one that just hums along. ShopOps’ HR capabilities can help to assist your human resources personnel with tracking staff, trainings, and documents, which can provide solutions to common staff-related issues.
Two Words: Time Management:
Whether you’re a chronic procrastinator or just love to linger with your customers over coffee and talk about the local news, you can never regain lost time. Flip the script with subtle changes to your daily routine. Set office hours so your employees can address work issues in an organized way, then close your door and hide your smartphone when you need to focus. Place one dedicated team member in charge of at least 30 minutes every day spent on social media marketing. The more steady your habits, the more productivity (and revenue) you will squeeze out of every minute.
Take a Day Off!
Here are some exhausting figures: One out of every four small business owners works more than 60 hours a week. And just 57% take vacations. There are, however, good reasons to turn on your “Out of Office” notifications. Management fatigue can lead to career burnout and the blues, and the profits to match. Time spent away from your collision repair business will be well spent. Make time for family and friends, clear your mind, and notice whether new motivated concepts begin to reenter your mind!

By being Certified, offering Fully Documented Certified Repairs, and offering touch-less care, new customers will be glad to choose you for their collision care needs. They’ll be even more ecstatic when they discover that your facilities and amenities are designed to please.
Get Connected:
Offer wireless internet access to your customers! A majority of Americans–from Baby Boomers to the perpetually plugged-in Generation Z—now expect free Wi-Fi when they enter a business. Before you share that password, however, make sure your facility’s connection is strong with reliable service and few interruptions. The only thing better than free Wi-Fi is free, fast Wi-Fi! (Eire Systems)
Give Your Facility a Makeover:
In the real estate industry, curb appeal is touted as an easy way for a property owner to increase a return on their investment. Similarly, new street-facing signage or a fresh coat of paint in your body hop can go a long way toward impressing your Collision Care customers. Other aesthetic ideas: Repave your parking lot, plant flowers around the main entrance, and make sure your windows and public restroom sparkle!
Stock Your Front & Back Office:
After you’ve made your facility sparkle, stock it with everything your staff needs to conduct business quickly and efficiently. Set up a standard of procedure for when supplies run low and when you need to purchase new office equipment — so you never get stuck with an inkless printer and an impatient customer.
Try Offering Free Loaners to Your Customers:
Assured Performance Certified Collision Care Providers can take advantage of the non-profit organization’s special relationship with Enterprise so you can supply your customers with the wheels they need. You’ll create goodwill and boost your search results on AutoBodyLocator.com in the process.
Check Back With Your Customers:
Resolve to send every customer a follow up email or phone call after their vehicle has been repaired or upon delivery. Reinforce the benefits of their Certified Repair and consider sending out Customer Service questionnaires yearly. By conducting business in this manner, when a customer’s vehicle needs more work, you’ll be the first to know. Even better, drivers will appreciate your consistency and care — and you simply cannot pay for that kind of PR!

How Marquis Auto Body Launched a Viral Digital Campaign
How do you run a successful digital ad campaign? Learn how Troy Aldrich, President & Owner of Marquis Auto Body in Santa Rosa, California, used the On Demand Marketing (ODM) section of ShopOps to reach his community.
When Troy Aldrich logged into his Assured Performance ShopOps account and selected a meme featuring a Golden Retriever, he had no idea that the image would go viral. While he was familiar with running traditional ad campaigns, classic advertising lacks the immediate optics or insights that digital marketing can provide. Upon downloadinghis favorite image, Troy shared it on Facebook. To his surprise, his 10 day campaign resulted in over 11k views and 1.2k people interacting with the image … which far exceeded his expectations.
Troy explains, “It was phenomenal and we got to see instant results. Online, you can tell how many people saw your ad. With paper ads, you don’t know whether someone looked at your ad or not.” The dog image he shared going viral was an “ah-ha” moment for Troy, who says, “It’s going to change how we market to our community and I’m adding it to what we currently do.” The History of Marquis Auto Body
When Troy opened Marquis Auto Body in 2012, he was already a seasoned professional within the collision care industry. Having learned from his experience, he wanted to create a professional work environment that was conducive to completing high quality repairs in a timely manner.
Troy began working in the collision care field at the age 18 and his interest dated back to his first auto body class in high school. Looking back, he believes that he was “hooked from that moment onward.” By the time he opened Marquis Auto Body, he had been in the industry long enough to know that being OEM Certified is an essential way to do business.
Now, 8 years after opening Marquis Auto Body, Troy is living his dream as the President & Owner. Always focused on safe repairs that prioritize use of manufacturers’ parts and repair procedures, Troy enjoys a great relationship with local dealers and his community. Throughout 2020, his business has continued to adapt to the year’s unexpected changes and emerged thriving. Troy shares, “We employ top-of-the-line safety protocols, including a dual air filtration system and convenient pick up and delivery services”.
While his viral social media campaign taught him the importance of digital marketing, quality and safety remain his top priority. Located in Sonoma County, often referred to as ‘wine country’, Marquis Auto Body employs around 8 employees and services between 50 and 60 cars monthly. Marquis Auto Body is certified by Assured Performance, Nissan, Hyundai, INFINITI, FCA, Kia, Repair Capable — Ford, Repair Capable — Aluminum, and Alfa Romeo
If you live in Sonoma County and are in need of collision repair, stop by Marquis Auto Body. As an Certified Collision Repair Provider, Marquis Auto Body has been independently inspected by Assured Performance Collision Care, a non-profit 501(c)(6) organization, and found to have the right tools, training, equipment, and modified facilities to properly repair consumer’s technologically advanced vehicles to industry standards.

Turnpike Motors Autobody in Newington, Connecticut has always wanted to do things differently. Not only does this mean having the right tools, training, equipment, technology, and modified facilities to become certified with over 20 different manufacturers, but the well-known collision repair provider also believes in processing perfect, verifiable repairs.
The History of Turnpike Motors Autobody
This high standard was first established by the business’s original owners— Doug Fernandez Sr. and his brother, Joe Fernandez. Doug and Joe opened Turnpike Motors Autobody in May of 1969 and their industrious ways led to success. Doug Sr.’s son, Doug Jr., currently owns the business and his team includes about 35 employees that process 30 vehicles and 8 to 10 commercial vehicles weekly.
Growing up surrounded by collision repair, Doug Jr. observed how hands-on his father was within the collision repair process. It was evident to every customer who walked through the door that Doug Sr. cared … a lot. That methodology worked perfectly with Doug Jr.’s analytical mind. When Doug Jr. came on board, to help run his father’s beloved business, he wanted to ensure that the collision repair process was fast, efficient, and met the safety standards that his father had always prioritized.

How does Turnpike Motors Autobody ensure that their standard of perfect collision care is held company-wide?
First, they train their staff to prioritize safety through their use of original equipment (OE) parts and manufacturer’s repair procedures. Next, they work within the confines of every customer’s insurance. Most of all, they rely on employees like Daniel Hovey, Customer Service Manager, of their well known business. When you meet someone who loves what they do, it shows in every aspect of their work life and being, and Daniel is one of those people. To his coworkers and community, he is a reminder of the high quality customer service that Doug Jr. holds paramount. To local clientele, Hovey is the employee who puts their mind at ease— whether they schedule a repair or are looking for advice on how to process their vehicle’s damage.

High Quality Collision Care
Hovey considers facilitating high quality collision care to be his mission in life. Hovey began working at Turnpike Motors Autobody when he was still enrolled in college and while working toward his engineering degree. Despite meeting the requirements for a double major in mathematics, Hovey knew that Turnpike Motors Autobody would provide him with a direct avenue to help make the world a safer place.
He explains, “While one can correctly assume that being in an accident is a stressful experience. I want every single person I encounter to know that I am there to make the collision repair process comfortable, easy, and to help with any needs that they have. The customers that come to us care about our certifications. I let them know how glad I am that they have made such a smart decision to receive a quality repair from a specialist.”
Inspiring the Community
Due to his mindset, Hovey is known for his happy, upbeat personality and what gets him out of bed in the morning is just that …. his goal of spreading joy through helping others.
“What also inspired me about Turnpike Motors Autobody was that Doug wanted to get away from a flat rate start-to-finish concept and implement the Toyota Production System (TPS). I had learned about lean thinking at UConn and was intrigued.”
Hovey goes on to describe their process of exploring that new way of thinking, “It was 2008 and we were doing something unique, which made us trailblazers in our industry. We trained technicians to conceptualize a new way of processing cars … a different way of working on high-tech vehicles.”
Company Slogan
Hovey furthers, “We chose our company slogan very carefully, deciding on, ‘When Life Happens, Turnpike Motors is There’. We mean that in the broadest sense possible. We are the perfect solution to our customers’ problems, as we identify what they need and find a solution.”
Daniel Hovey is on a professional advisory committee within his field and often offers advice to those in his industry.
