Is anybody out there? How best to make this work?

[WarwickRDay]

Hi Guys,

How best do I make this forum work?


How do we get a great team of mechanics together?

What is important?



Please let me know what would suit you.* *



This could be very interesting as I'm finding people to build a great career/work opportunity in the win-win.*

go back to bed and firstly read this then think what your trying to say. Nothing wrong with this forum

[WarwickRDay]

This forum is great; it's more my ability to engage with people.
What I said is my honest approach; I want to improve workplace environments for some mechanics. I have a client that needs to grow work shops. I have one mechanic who has started there and loves it. Have a great approach that we worked on for him!

I'd suggest explaining simply what it is you want/need/discuss because while it's Friday and I managed not to hurt myself or others at work this week (it's the least I could do as a boss) I'm still in a fog of understanding what you are talking about.

Are you trying to recruit mechanics using this site?

You sir never fail to enrich my time here.

I need you to be a lot clearer on what you are after. If this is not forthcoming, I will have no choice but to close the thread.

If you simply using this forum for the sole purpose to recruit, then that will have to stop also.

Hey - Thanks for the feedback. I am just looking to chat with great mechanics about how to make a great workshop - A bonus system based on work done!

Then how to make that great for specific mechanics!

Please keep the advice/ banter coming!

Surprised you have not acted by shutting down a scam topic.

Hi Mate, It's not a scam at all; probably not the best way to go about this.
I'm open to ideas?

Maybe stop posting only in this part of the forum, get into the general workshop area and offer some expert advice to fellow forum members needing it first would have been a good way.

Offering your services as an option then and then only go headhunting.

For all we know you could be AI, like Franco.

No - Not until we have great mechanics to chat to about building a workshop.

Have nothing to celebrate yet until we have a bigger team.

I think you are looking in the wrong places, a forum is full of enthusiasts, sure there might be the odd qualified mechanic or 2, but having them in the vicinity of where you wish to operate from and be willing to leave a job for uncertainty in your new dream, you are playing lotto numbers.

Ok wow thanks, I thought there would be a majority of mechanics.

As for the Lotto or Career Lotto. I can have a chat and demonstrate that this has "your lucky numbers".

LoL I'm good, and I'm not a mechanic, and even if I was there is no way I would up end my life to travel to whatever state for someone else's dream

[WarwickRDay]

Hi Guys - Thanks for all the feedback. I'm working to find the best way to run a workshop or two!

I've come here for a few reasons -

1. I'm working with a couple that run two successful mechanical operations. (little blurb to follow) - To make this work, I'm hoping to get some more feedback from this forum.

We are working together to build the business, Im finding staff, and they are working on these businesses and own a nursery/hospital food supply operation.
I mean that they are good at running businesses and know how to make them work. They have a good reputation and know how you empower the teams that make this happen.
We need more mechanics and someone to coordinate/manage tyre wheel sales/ services, etc.
Good mechanics who can solve problems and fix cars.
Do servicing and maintenance and include /tyre/wheel solutions
People to grow into other roles as the business grows.
A Client Manager for service/fix/ and tyres (and Wheels)
Working with the team.
Solutions to clients working to solve problems.

What do you guys think is the best way to work these workshops and roles?
How do we find the right people who want something better?

Please let me know what else to do so I can make this useful information for the forum. I guess overall I'm looking to make a better engagement of Mechanics to employers.

More win-win like all good work environments.

Cheers
Warwick

Also, As a FORD guy - It's a great place to be.

Why is it ......... when I read this ^^^^^, I thought of a forum member in the hospitality line, who is always asking questions about life, the universe and everything.
