Why I’m NOT a mobile mechanic Anymore (But Now Getting Forced Out of My Shop) #mobilemechanic

Since I'm getting more and more subscribers these days, I thought I'd give a little bit of my background to let you guys know how I got to where I am today.
I have worked for several shops around the city of Atlanta, but I got most of my knowledge from being a mobile mechanic for several years. I's a pretty good gig, but I grew tired of it and decided to get my own shop! Now, I'm kinda being kicked out of my shop in a sense. Business is booming, but my shop is too small, which forces me to work outside the shop in the heat to get things done. I don't like working outside, which is why I got the shop in the first place lol.
I hope you guys enjoy the video. See you in the next one.

When I first watched your channel I thought you were faking the nice guy approach. But it’s obvious you really are a nice guy. Congrats on your expansion , I pray you find success in all your work.

I'm not sure anyone has mentioned this but I enjoy the fact that your wife is helping you with your camera work. Most spouses prefer not to get involved, the ones that prosper have spouses that engage or even help and I feel that is why they work out better on youtube. It is a rarity.

Such a inspiration. I’m currently in Houston building an amazing clientele as a mobile mechanic and you have definitely been pinned as my mentor/go to in this field. I truly appreciate you for pushing through and can’t forget to give thanks to your other half that clearly supports and helps. Keep going!!

Yeah man, glad to see you're expanding. Mobile mechanic here in the Caribbean. I always give a estimate for parts and labor before doing any kind of work for clients. That way it dials in if they can afford it or not. If they can't afford it, that's fine, that way my time and effort is not wasted.

Pay in advance bro, if people don't want to pay at least 50 percent in labor up front they are not a customer worth having. Especially in Atlanta people love to run games and been there has done that. Glad your business continues to prosper sire. Blessings and respect!

Increase your prices weeds out the cheap o people and cons. Thanks for sharing that story. It's crazy PayPal didn't work a resolution, con artists exploit it.

If I were in the ATL I’d give you all my car business even though I generally will do all my own mechanical work on my VWs and Audi’s.. wow nice new shop I’m looking fwd to seeing it fill up with equipment and the lifts.. I agree a mobile mechanic is great in ideal conditions.. I might do it someday.. I like your videos, very honest and truly genuine.. I’ve learned a lot from your stuff .. it’s very well presented and good camera work .. keep up the great work 👍🏻
