    Life of an RV Tech: Nick Singley

    What does it take to log record billable hours with exceptional customer service? In this episode of Shop Talk, we talk with flat rate tech Nick Singley about how he stacks hours and makes them count. We'll hear why saying yes to the jobs nobody else wants is exactly how you build your hours, and how chasing manufacturer certifications — before anyone asks you to — can make you the only person in the building who can take on a given job.  Plus, we get into how the RV industry is turning techs into IT pros, and why that's actually an opportunity.

    Maximizing Efficiency as an RV Tech

    What does it actually take for an RV tech to run a profitable, efficient bay? Efficiency is a skill that separates techs who have to stay late to make up for lost time from those who leave on time and earn more doing it. In this episode of Shop Talk, we talk with Master Tech Spencer Kearney about the real time-killers in the bay, why chasing hours often costs you money, and how to run your bay like a business. Plus, we'll touch on writing warranty stories that almost never get kicked back and why the least desirable jobs often pay the most.

    Life of An RV Tech: Tom Wirtala

    How has the life of an RV tech changed? It's a question perfectly suited for longtime Master Technician Tom Wirtala, who's seen just about everything in his 30+ year career. Tom has lived the evolution first-hand. He also gets into what separates a good tech from a great one, why time management might be the most underrated skill in the bay, and the one piece of advice he gives every new technician: turn your doom-scrolling into job training. Whether you're a seasoned wrench-turner or just breaking into the trade, this one's worth a listen.
