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.
