ATI Repair Shop Mastery


Recommended Posts

Good morning, I received a call from a lady contacting me about a school in my area. I have never been to one of there training schools although I have heard of the company ATI.  I am always open to anything that helps me increase my knowledge of our profession. The school is called  ATI Shop Mastery, it looks new and there is not much info on the web about it. The price she offered me was net zero at the end of the day. Any info would surely be appreciated.

any information that you get that would improve your shop is worth paying for, check out shop hackers facebook page, there is a ton of good info and shop owners willing to help for free. If you want to take your shop to the next level, check out shopfix academy. By far the best coaching company ever!!! They don't get you into a contract like everyone else, they earn their worth every month. But start with shop hackers, you will not regret it.

Agree with Shums Auto on this one. ATI has never impressed me because of the high pressure tactics, and the fact that you sign a long contract for their coaching, and they get paid 100% up front. Does not seem like a fair business model.

IF you can say NO, and IF you have the time to spare, and IF you want to maybe pick-up a trick or two, and IF you are willing to network with a few other Shop Owners (I think that describes my last ATI experience!) - this can be a good experience.  There is a class close to me soon and YES, as mentioned, I got a phone call and an e-mail, but I don't have a free day so I blew it off.  I have learned a few ticks - and I was told five years ago that I wouldn't last 6 months if I didn't sign up.  I'm still here...

I can say no but they aren't very good at accepting no for an answer.  Kind of reminded me of the time share salesman.  

 

HAHAHA!  That's only funny if you knew how many weeks of Time shares I own (Platinum!).  You are correct - ATI does have a hard time with NO for an answer...  Maybe I better skip their next visit to a venue near me!

      I am going to borrow a quote from billionaire, Warren Buffet, “The best investment you can make is in yourself,” This statement, while simplistic, speaks volumes. A shop owner is much more than a boss, a shop owner is a leader. And leaders are solely responsible for the success of their team. This means that you must work hard and commit to a life of continuous learning and improvement. It also means that if the team fails, a leader must always blame himself or herself for that failure and find ways to improve.
      For your business to flourish, you must invest your time and energy in understanding what your role is in your company. It also means that you must be committed to continually improving your level of competence. This does not mean that every task is your responsibility. However, it does mean that the buck stops with you. If your business is not where it needs to be, or you are looking for increased growth, then it is your obligation to do the hard work and set goals, have the vision, perform the research, and develop the plan to achieve your overall objectives.
      When you invest in yourself to become the best leader and the best businessperson you can be, others around you will feed off your energy and your passion. This sends a strong message to everyone on your team that you have what it takes to bring the company to the next level.
      One last thing, another obligation to your company is assembling the right team of people around you. Once you have the right people, you need to invest in them too. Find what truly motivates them, not what you believe inspires them. Be a coach to your employees and always strive to bring out the best in them. Be strong with your convictions and expectations, build strong relationships with your employees, and don’t be afraid of admitting when you drop the ball.
      While Warren Buffet is best known for making billions of dollars with his investment strategies, I want to believe that this quote has its basis in something that money cannot buy.
