OCEANSIDE, Calif., March 30, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Technician Find Founder Christopher T. Lawson appeared as a guest on the Mind-Wrench podcast, hosted by Rick Selover.

They also discussed what shops can do to avoid these mistakes and hire high-quality technicians faster.
Lawson covered a wide range of mindsets, tactics and strategies including:
- What is the most important thing that you can mention in your ads no matter what position you are hiring for?
- How can you create help wanted ads that deliver the right message to prospective employees?
- How do you tell a story about your shop that attracts technicians?
- How do you find techs who are employed and aren't actively looking for work?
- What does it take to be successful finding technicians on social media?
- Why is throwing more money at job boards a losing proposition?
- What is the best way to make sure that you don't find yourself in a pinch when an employee quits on you?
- And much more...
"Finding the right technicians is a frustrating but necessary aspect of running a successful repair business in the automotive or collision industry," said Lawson. "I've seen shops make a lot of mistakes over the past five plus years and waste a lot of time and money in the process. Hopefully this podcast episode will help shops avoid some of these common pitfalls and allow them to find the right techs faster."
