I believe every entrepreneur needs a LinkedIn strategy. I don't just care about marketing I care about you!

Starland Supply (2000) Ltd

I worked as the sales leader and marketing director at Starland Supply. This role had me working with people every day. So it was a great opportunity to grow and polish my leadership skills.

I managed the day-to-day operations of Eagle Automotive's autobody division. In this position, I was working with clients, insurance companies, and employees every day. So here I took my PR skills to the next level.

AutoBody Shop Manager

Private Christian School

I was the lead teacher at a small Christian school. My classroom was the homeroom for grades 7-10. I viewed my role not only as a teacher but as a leader and role model for my students.

My business is to help independent auto body shops dominate online and serve more people. | Founder of BodyShop Marketing | Follower of Jesus | Husband & Dad 4x

Back in the early 80’s my daddy started an autobody shop in central British Columbia, Canada. Our shop had its humble beginnings right on the ranch that I grew up on. My daddy was a hard-working man that needed a way to support his family, so he learned the autobody trade and got to work fixing cars in the ranch shop. God blessed our family and the business grew so much that they needed to add on to the shop a couple of times to keep up with demand. Of course, this shop would become a second home to me while I worked, played, and grew up there.
 
By the early 90’s the shop on the ranch was bursting at the seams. It was time to find a bigger and better location. The shop was then moved to a new shop in our town and it’s actually still there today. 

I started managing the autobody shop in 2013. I wore many hats in the shop: customer service, shop management, parts ordering, insurance negotiations, and floor sweeper. Whatever needed to be done, I tackled it head-on. I knew that it was the customers that kept the lights turned on, so I made sure customer service was our number one priority. In 2021 I chose to move on and pursue other ventures, but I look back on my years of management and feel blessed for the opportunity. I learned so many lessons on the floor of that shop, and now I’m using them to serve my marketing customers. I understand the hard work that goes into running a successful autobody shop. I understand the pain that the industry is facing. But I believe that every independent shop has the right to be full of cars and be supported by their local communities.
 
My years of growing up on the ranch and helping around the autobody shop helped shape who I am today. I was raised on hard work, respect, integrity, and humility. One of my daddy’s sayings still sticks with me today, “Don’t stand around with your hands in your pockets”. So, this is how I operate BodyShop Marketing. Let’s get after it! 

Let’s chat today and see if there is any way I can support you and your shop!

Sales and Service Specialist

Passionate Customer Advocate Focused on Driving Customer-Centric Solutions

I have over 15 years of driving customer-centric solutions. From Banking to Customer Success I've carried this core value with me.

I've learned a lot over the last decade and a half, but something that's stuck with me is that we need to ask more questions. In my experience, when I hear a client tell me what they want, there's usually more to the story. By asking powerful questions I've been able to understand who, what, where and why in all these scenarios. It's not that I don't trust my customers, but I like to go the extra mile to truly understand what's led them to this solution.

Helping people is another core value - as an extravert it comes easily to me. Whether I'm training, presenting, coaching, or listening my objective is to help provide value. It's important that my customers know I am their catalytic resource to help them reach set out goals.
