Mechanics & Body Shops Marketplace Details
We are Skill-Loan LLC based in California and we operate the Mechanics & Body Shops Marketplace site and mobile applications, a SaaS and marketplace dedicated to the auto repair and collision industry. We created the website and Apps. to address the fundamental inefficiency in the Auto repair industry costing $40B in productivity every year. The market inefficiency is caused by the unpredictable and random nature of service demand combined with planned and unplanned employee absences from the shop. This problem is accentuated by a national shortage of technicians- getting worse every year- with more baby boomer techs retiring than new millennial techs entering the market. To address this problem, a) shop owners/dealership service directors and technicians need a tool to connect to each other in real-time and b) shops need to collaborate in an ethical manner to share resources to address the daily and weekly changes in service demand vs. resources available. The outcome is a more productive and efficient industry, higher profitability for the shops and higher income for auto technicians.
