Do You Own a Business or a Job? [RR 1074]
Episode 1074
Monday, 12 January, 2026
Thanks to our Partners, NAPA Auto Care and NAPA TRACS Watch Full Video Episode James Stephenson shares his journey from a struggling technician to the leader of multiple successful businesses, offering a candid look at what truly drives sustainable growth in auto repair. The conversation tackles the technician hiring crisis head-on, reframing recruitment as an ongoing, intentional process and rooted in a positive, proactive mindset. Stephenson credits much of his success to mentorship from Bob Cooper, highlighting how investing in employees as people, not just producers, builds long-term loyalty. By supporting personal goals like homeownership and financial stability, shop owners can create cultures where teams want to stay and grow. The episode also explores the coming “silver tsunami” of retiring shop owners and why many shops fail to become valuable, sellable businesses. Poor financial documentation and outdated systems often erode enterprise value. The takeaway is clear: with professional coaching and strong shop management practices, an auto repair shop can evolve from a job that owns you into a scalable, high-value business asset.
