If your making reference to the season, at this point it's the hi season for them. The holidays is the answer. Business closing, there are so many factors. For the shipping companies laying off, they're at their peak due to the Holidays and online orders, not laying off until after season... The purchasing habits have change a lot... My sales for November & December had diminished a lot, nothing to compared to the previous months. My thoughts for this year, "Black Friday turn into Black November" The Black Friday sales started early in November and not in the Black Friday, therefore people spending on gifts and specials for the holidays. Once we got to the Thank Giving week, the consumer buy food and kids are out of school, so their funds go to the groceries store. The auto shops are empty since the consumer does not consider their car well being since it runs, if it does not run then they'll consider doing something about it... it's an uphill battle. and Yes, I have been advertising even more, with very little outcome. -

I just discovered this topic from back in October and I see nobody has made a comment since. I didn't have very much luck with a shop foreman. The main cause, in my opinion, was twofold. If I hired one, right off the bat they wouldn't be productive. If I promoted one of my techs, they had no practical experience running a shop. Eventually, if not sooner, their productivity would also end up as nothing. Either way, I ended up losing one of my best techs. If I ran the shop, it would run the smoothest and most profitable. However, that meant I had to delegate the front counter responsibilities and phone answering. I had my greatest success doing this because it was a lot easier to find someone who fit that job description. I quickly learned from that experience that I had to write a job description for every position. Easier said than done. Over the course of a year, I was constantly editing and updating every job description until I was happy with the employees' outcomes. The old adage about 20/20 vision applies here. Looking back, I should have written a shop owner's job description and included that with all the employees' job descriptions so they would know what to expect from me instead of assuming. -

Here's a good article from Ratchet & Wrench on how your shop's numbers compare to other shops in a recent survey. https://www.ratchetandwrench.com/running-a-shop/finance/article/55250653/numbers-how-does-your-shop-compare-in-annual-revenue-gross-and-net-profits -
If you’re running a small automotive business, doing a year-end review gives you an accurate picture of your performance over the past twelve months. The information you collect gives you the opportunity to create a tangible action plan for growth as you enter 2025. While this may seem like a daunting task, it is actually a helpful tool that will set your business up for long-term success. This blog post will help you conduct an effective yearly review so your automotive business can thrive next year. Why a Year-End Review is Critical A yearly review is essential for several reasons: You collect data to identify positive and negative patterns within your finances. You have an accurate depiction of your yearly growth. You have the opportunity to reconcile accounts and address discrepancies as needed. The financial data you retrieve from your review is the key to setting realistic and achievable goals for the future. Therefore, conduct your year-end review prior to setting your new goals for 2025. How to Conduct Your Year-End Review Now that you understand why your review is critical, it’s time to get to work. This process should take approximately two hours to complete. Since you’re a busy business owner, it helps to schedule your review on the calendar and treat it like a shop appointment. You wouldn’t cancel on a customer, so don’t cancel on your review appointment. Settle down in a quiet space, turn off your notifications, and dive head-first into your financial records. For a full list of documents to review, check out this blog post, and be sure to download our free End-of-Year Checklist. Here are questions to reflect on as you go: What were your financial goals for your business at the beginning of the year? Consider the state of your business at the beginning of the year. Recall your goals and compare them to your 2024 financial data. Did you meet your financial goals for the year? Evaluate your progress toward said goals. Did you meet them, exceed them, or fall short? Identify why you did or did not achieve your goals this year and reflect on financial data to create a profitable plan moving forward. What went well this year? What could have been improved? Numbers don’t lie, which is why it’s important to be informed of your business’s yearly performance. They are a concrete indicator of what went well and what could have been better. Create a list for each so you can continue the positive patterns and make improvements as needed. You’ve completed your review. Now what? Take a deep breath, pat yourself on the back, and celebrate the completion of another year as an entrepreneur. Now that you understand your yearly progress, it’s time to set new goals and tackle them intentionally and strategically. Remember: It’s okay if the past year did not go according to plan. The data from your year-end review will help you stay on track and succeed over the next twelve months. -
