Welcome to our new follow-up roundtable on The Collision Vision. I'm Cole Strandberg, joined by our permanent panelists, Erin Solis and Sheryl Driggers, and today, our recent guest John Melendez is back with us.

We're unpacking John's decision to add ASE mechanical inside a collision-first shop — what it did for sublet, cycle time, pricing power, and customer experience — and how independent operators can pilot the same playbook. Let's get into it.
