Great articles. I can tell you from personal experience that taking the time to talk to women and explain the repair goes a long way, especially as strange as it sounds, with the older (50+) group. They are the ones that will be the quickest to refer and also return for repairs.

      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.

      Interested to hear how you like these systems and also how you're using third party integrations and/or Zapier as a bridge to external systems. 
      We have an integration with Shop-Ware in development and are scoping an integration with Shopmonkey. At present our Buy Now Pay Later product allows you to generate an invoice with a web form. After we onboard the customer and wire payment to you the next day, you have to manually mark the RO as paid. An integration eliminates most of the manual work. You just select an RO and we can do the rest behind the scenes -- pull in relevant customer and job info, notify the customer, and then mark the RO as paid when funds transfer to you is complete.
      Looking for any insight or feedback from folks on how easy (or difficult) your experience has been bridging your SMS with external systems, and if there are specific things that would make these integrations work more smoothly for you.
