Look… today I want to talk about the one thing standing between you and a second van. And it is not money. It is not demand. It is people.
I'm sitting here thinking… I've been doing mobile oil changes for thirteen years. And in all that time, the hardest problem was never finding customers. It was never the website, the booking flow, the van, the equipment. The hardest problem, every single year, was finding a technician I could trust to send into somebody's driveway.
And this week I read the numbers, and it turns out it's not just me. It's the whole industry. The TechForce Foundation put out their twenty twenty-six technician supply and demand report back in May, and the numbers are wild.
Video summary coming soon — a visual breakdown of the key points from this episode.
