    EP 93: How to Add PDR to Your Detailing Business! | FT. Nolan Campeau

    We’re two detailers sharing what we’ve learned in the auto detailing world, and in this episode we sit down with Nolan from True North Dent Repair. Nolan tells us how he moved from detailing into full-time paintless dent repair and how detail shops can work with a PDR tech to offer customers more under one roof. We also talk about hail damage, mobile work versus having a shop, and why honest estimates and customer trust matter. His stories from a major hail storm and the challenges of difficult repairs offer a close look at what the PDR trade involves. 🔗 LINK TO ENTER GIVEAWAY: https://sudstosuccesspodcast.com/mte-giveaway Topics in This Episode: Nolan’s Journey from Auto Detailing to Full-Time PDR How Detail Shops Can Offer Paintless Dent Repair Hail Damage, Honest Estimates, and Customer Trust 🔗 CHECK OUT SUDSYCRM! 🌐 Website: https://sudsycrm.com/ USE CODE "SUDS" FOR THE FIRST 2 MONTHS DISCOUNTED! 🔗 Links 🌐 Website: https://sudstosuccesspodcast.com/ 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sudstosuccesspodcast/ 📱 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/sudstosuccesspodcast JOIN OUR FACEBOOK GROUP: https://bit.ly/suds-facebook-group 🔗 Check Out Nolan Campeau / True North Dent Repair 🌐 Website: https://truenorthdent.ca/ 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/true_north_pdr/ 📱 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61574132160059 📣 This Episode is Sponsored by Tekton Performance Films! 🌐 Website: https://www.tektonpf.com Check Out the Best Auto Detailing Software(s) to Help Boost Your Business! https://sudstosuccesspodcast.com/software-recommendations 👍 Don’t Forget to Subscribe!
