I need them to have one portal but need a way to identify which unit belongs to which location. What is the best way to do this without using the "ship to" address option?

How is the training coverage for the heavy duty industry? I talked to them a couple years ago and he wouldn’t sell it to me because he didn’t think that we would like to use it because there was just two of us and we were mobile only. Now that we have a shop maybe we should try again.

Futures jumped again Wednesday, so $6 isn't a maybe, it's a "when."

If you're running a mobile operation, you're getting squeezed on both ends — your own fuel bill climbing, and customers suddenly a lot pickier about what they'll actually sign off on. I know a lot of you have seen this pattern before: fuel spikes, and fleets start doing real math on total operating cost before approving anything.

What are you telling customers who are pushing back on repair costs right now?

If you could get as specific as possible, that would help. There are so many ways to structure this and we are looking for ideas!

We currently torque wheel lug nuts with a click type torque wrench. I am a small shop, I think this would provide a small time savings when installing tires. My main thought is if someone ever gets hurt due to a torque wrench slipping I would justify the cost of two of them. It seems like there is always body on a truck or a set of fenders in the way or in the path of your hand when pulling on a torque wrench. The torque data recording would also be an added benefit for liability. Curious if anyone else has experience with one.

Would love to connect with other shop owners to learn more about the undertaking from the financial, equipment, and experience sides.

Please feel free to respond to this thread, email me at travisfitzpatrick55@gmail.com, or can call my phone directly at 203-253-3127.

Thank you in advance for your guidance!

I'm Robby Gilbert - I run Finance at Fullbay. I spend most of my days looking at numbers on a screen, and I'd like to actually go see a shop in person instead of just reading about them in a spreadsheet.

One thing up front: I'm not a product person, so if you're hoping I can show you some slick new Fullbay feature or fix something that's bugging you, I'm the wrong guy - our support team's got you way better than I would. I just want to come hang out for a day and see how you actually run things. How ROs move, how you juggle techs, scheduling, what makes a good day vs. a bad one, learn some about financials of a shop, that kind of stuff.

Would anyone be up for letting me shadow your shop for a day? No agenda beyond genuine curiosity - partly because I think it'll make me better at my job, partly because I just think it's interesting.

Details:

- Flexible on when - we can find a time that works for you
- I'm out of Phoenix, AZ but happy to travel
- Doesn't matter if you're a 3-bay shop or a big fleet operation
- I'll get the shop lunch for the day and try to stay out of the way
- If there's anything you want my take on - finance-side stuff: AR, AP, budgeting, forecast, whatever - let me know ahead of time and I'll do my best to come prepared for it

Reply here or shoot me a shoot me a direct message if you're interested. Thanks for reading this far either way.

Robby
