Welcome back to The Collision Vision, driven by Autobody News. I’m your host, Cole Strandberg.
Today's guest is Brian Beers, a multi-unit Midas franchisee who has helped grow his family business to 36 locations — and built an operating model designed to keep scaling.
While Brian comes from the mechanical side of automotive, his story has a lot of lessons for collision operators. We'll talk about growing from operator to leader, building an acquisition machine, creating density in a market, developing people and infrastructure ahead of growth, and what franchising has taught him about creating a truly repeatable business.
Because at some point, scaling stops being about how well you can run a shop — and starts being about whether you can build an organization that runs great shops without you.
Let's get into it.
