What does it really take to repair cars the right way, protect your shop from liability, and actually get paid for the work you do? In this power-packed episode of Body Bangin’, I sat down with Alex Stapleton (North American Sales & Marketing Director at Spanesi) to dig into the real ROI of pre-measuring—and why it’s the missing link in too many shops’ processes. We pulled back the curtain on the truths (and myths) around pre-measuring, blueprinting, and how measurement can transform both shop profitability and customer trust. What you’ll learn in this episode: ⚡ Why skipping pre-measurement is costing shops more than they realize ⚡ How to turn measuring into a billable, documented operation (and add hours to every RO) ⚡ The fastest way to make pre-measurement part of your SOPs without slowing production ⚡ How to use measuring as a marketing tool to show customers you repair cars the right way ⚡ Why training, consistency, and leadership—not just buying equipment—separate successful shops from the rest If you’ve ever wondered whether pre-measurement is “worth the time,” or how to make it a profit driver instead of a headache, this conversation is your playbook. 🎤 Don’t miss this episode with one of the industry’s straightest shooters—Alex Stapleton of Spanesi. 🔔 Subscribe now and never miss an episode that challenges the status quo and helps you grow for real. 📧 Connect with Alex Stapleton: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alex-stapleton-/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/alex.stapleton.5 Support the show For more info on Micki's Marketing Services to help you grow your shop's revenue click here: https://collisioncentermarketing.com Email Micki directly at micki@mickiwoodsmarketing.com Join the Body Bangin' Facebook Group! https://www.facebook.com/groups/989546031854134

In this powerful episode, Micki Woods is joined by Jeff Butler and Justin Lewis—two shop owners who fought for years to protect collision shops and consumers alike, and won. They helped pass a groundbreaking Right to Appraisal (RTA) bill in Washington, and they’re here to share what every shop owner needs to know about it—and how to take action in your own state. Here’s what you’ll learn: ✅ What RTA Actually Is: Why it matters, how it works, and why most shops are still misunderstanding it. ✅ Why WA Had to Step Up: How insurers were writing RTA out of policies—and how Jeff and Justin fought to make it mandatory. ✅ “Competent Appraiser” Defined: What that term really means (and why a boat damage appraiser has no business near a Tesla claim). ✅ What Shops Can Do Now: Whether you’re in WA or not, here’s how to educate customers, document better, and fight smarter—not harder. If you’ve ever been short-paid, ignored by insurance, or frustrated with the lack of leverage, this episode is a must-listen. 🔔 Subscribe now on YouTube, Spotify, or Apple Podcasts so you don’t miss what’s next. 👇 RESOURCES & LINKS: 🎧 Subscribe to Body Bangin’ on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/491aIUWJ72fFpVARROeRcA ▶️ Watch more Body Bangin’ episodes on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@UCwbN0Tv3xo9RFBDNN2G5SjQ 📧 Connect with Jeff Butler & Justin Lewis: Jeff Butler: Jeff@hauryscollision.com Justin Lewis: justin@accurateab.com 🔗 Follow Micki on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/micki-woods-36374121 🚀 Need help growing your shop with marketing that actually drives leads?

In this value-packed episode, Micki Woods sits down with Kena Dacus, co-owner of Dacus Auto Body & Collision Repair, to uncover real-world strategies for shop owners who are ready to grow smarter, not harder in the collision repair industry. Here’s what you’ll learn: ✅ Insurance Headaches: Why getting paid for proper repairs (like safety inspections) feels impossible, and how Kena’s team manages the pushback. ✅ Towing Business Truths: The real cost of adding towing services, the risks you need to know, and why it’s a completely different business model from collision repair. ✅ The 4-Day Work Week Experiment: How moving to a 4-day production schedule improved efficiency, reduced burnout, and became a game-changing recruiting tool for Kena’s shop. ✅ Why Industry Involvement is Non-Negotiable: Kena shares how getting involved in industry groups, trade shows, and learning from other shop owners unlocked massive growth—and why you can’t afford to stay on the sidelines. If you’re an independent shop owner feeling the pressure of insurer challenges, consolidation, and keeping your team happy while growing profitably—this episode is a must-listen. 🔔 Subscribe now on YouTube, Apple Podcasts or Spotify so you don’t miss future episodes that help you build a shop that’s thriving—not just surviving.

I am talking with Michael Giarrizzo, CEO/President of DCR Systems, about embracing the change of our industry. As our vehicles become more complex things NEED TO CHANGE! Vehicles today are safety machines on wheels so what is your shop doing to make sure you are keeping those vehicles that come to you after a collision are being restored so they operate exactly like they would if they never would have gotten into an accident. We need to start taking on the responsibility of this to create a sustainable future in our industry! No more are the days of just checking fit and finish! Michael challenges shops to: 1 – establish your why 2 – create processes that are non-negotiable (consistency) 3 – have extensive documentation (documentation before, during and after the repair including manufacturer repair procedures, videos, photos, notes, etc.) 4 – create quality control check points throughout your shop (ask your team where those QC checks should be. Utilize your team to make your business better.) If you want to ask any questions of Michael or inquire about becoming one of his licensed shops you can email him directly at: mgiarrizzo@dcrsystems.net Links to Michael’s past Body Bangin’ interview - Episode #30 – Becoming a Lean, Mean, Auto Body Repair Machine: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ep-30-becoming-a-lean-mean-auto-body-repair-machine/id1558234037?i=1000553311049 On YouTube: https://youtu.be/3YVwWiA9Um0?si=-CtQbNXGGYDoPf07 ____________________________ Connect with Micki on LinkedIn Now! :) https://www.linkedin.com/in/micki-woods-36374121/ For more info on Micki's Marketing Services to help you grow your shop's revenue click here: https://collisioncentermarketing.com Email Micki directly at micki@mickiwoodsmarketing.com Support the Show.
