Common questions
Why do skilled-trade shops have such high turnover?
Usually it's not pay. It's bad first-line management, weak onboarding, no career path, and no recognition. Our consulting work directly addresses those four root causes — because hiring more people into a leaky bucket is the most expensive mistake a shop can make.
Do you train technicians or managers?
Both, but the highest ROI is almost always at the manager and lead-tech level. A great service manager retains the whole bay. We focus most of our training there, then layer in tech-level skill programs.
How is this delivered?
Mix of on-site workshops, virtual coaching, and asynchronous playbooks. Engagements usually run 3 to 12 months depending on scope.
Can we combine this with recruiting?
Yes — most clients pair Consulting & Training with Fractional Recruiting or Full Spectrum TA. The combo is what makes hiring actually stick.
