What do you guys think about this potential mailer that we are thinking about blasting the local community with? Any information needed/unnecessary? Thoughts?

Green side is the front, white is the back, FYI.

 

Thanks.

If your goal is to get some immediate business, don't. Save the money and use it on your website's SEO instead, maybe split it with the FB.

If you are set on the mailings, replace the map with a QR code of your website. Replace the "As a gift for our neighbors" with "As appreciation to your neighbors"

It does not jive to say a gift and then charge them $19.99, imo :) I realize that it's your logo on the card, but the colors are low impact, so it's a judgement call, but i'd change the colors leaving the same logo picture, just to make sure the card is picked out of the slew of other mail and actually looked at for at least a split second.

      It always amazes me when I hear about a technician who quits one repair shop to go work at another shop for less money. I know you have heard of this too, and you’ve probably asked yourself, “Can this be true? And Why?” The answer rests within the culture of the company. More specifically, the boss, manager, or a toxic work environment literally pushed the technician out the door.
      While money and benefits tend to attract people to a company, it won’t keep them there. When a technician begins to look over the fence for greener grass, that is usually a sign that something is wrong within the workplace. It also means that his or her heart is probably already gone. If the issue is not resolved, no amount of money will keep that technician for the long term. The heart is always the first to leave. The last thing that leaves is the technician’s toolbox.
      Shop owners: Focus more on employee retention than acquisition. This is not to say that you should not be constantly recruiting. You should. What it does means is that once you hire someone, your job isn’t over, that’s when it begins. Get to know your technicians. Build strong relationships. Have frequent one-on-ones. Engage in meaningful conversation. Find what truly motivates your technicians. You may be surprised that while money is a motivator, it’s usually not the prime motivator.
      One last thing; the cost of technician turnover can be financially devastating. It also affects shop morale. Do all you can to create a workplace where technicians feel they are respected, recognized, and know that their work contributes to the overall success of the company. This will lead to improved morale and team spirit. Remember, when you see a technician’s toolbox rolling out of the bay on its way to another shop, the heart was most likely gone long before that.

      Clarity Break Starter Questions
      Sometimes it is highly effective to have no plan, no questions while sometimes you need some starter questions to get your mind rolling (example questions below)
      What would I do if I wasn’t afraid? Today, I am dreaming about…. What’s draining my energy right now? Who do you admire and why? What are they doing that you can do also? How do you practice caring for yourself?  What are you most proud of? What can you de-clutter physically or emotionally today/this weekend? What are your self-affirmations? Make a list of statements to remind yourself who you are, what your talents/skills are, and what you believe about yourself.
