Course Overview

Create the garage business you deserve

For many garage professionals, marketing your independent garage business is often at the bottom of your lengthy to-do list. Yet, in a competitive market, standing out is crucial for growth and success.

Many garage owners want to expand their customer base and increase profits, but without a clear understanding of modern marketing tactics, this ambition remains out of reach. That’s where my course comes in.

Tailored specifically for the independent sector, this course distills my 35+ years of experience creating high-valued garage businesses using powerful marketing strategies. It offers practical, easy-to-implement guidance that will elevate your garage’s profile both in your local community and online space.

Meet your Course Leader: The Garage Inspector

Hi, I’m Andy Savva and I’m obsessed with helping independent garages get more from their business.

For too long, independent garage owners and their teams have had had no support to help them grow flourishing successful businesses. I’m on a mission to change that.

Having bought and sold several garage businesses – including my flagship 14,000 sq.ft purposely built vehicle repair workshop – I know what’s holding you back from being the success you deserve to be.

Over the last few years I have been helping an increating number of garage businesses unleash their potential and move from a position of surviving, to one of thriving.

I’d love for you to join me on this journey and can’t wait to learn all about your business.
