Need An
Experienced Tech?
We help independent auto repair shops get their opportunity in front of experienced automotive technicians in their local market — including techs who may already be working but would consider a better opportunity.
Hiring techs? 5 qualified applicants in 60 days, or your money back.
We build a recruiting campaign around your must-haves. If we don't deliver at least 5 qualified, interested applicants within 60 days, you get your money back, minus the $500 setup fee. Ad spend isn't refundable.
The Problem
Too Much Work. Not Enough Techs.
Being short a technician doesn't stay a hiring problem for very long. It starts affecting the entire shop.
Turning Away Work
You have the customers, but not enough hands to take the cars.
Booking Too Far Out
Customers are waiting longer because your bays are already full.
Owner Back In The Bays
Instead of running the business, you're filling the missing technician's role.
Growth Gets Stuck
The work is there, but you don't have the technicians to take on more of it.
A Different Approach
Your Next Great Tech May Already Have A Job.
Most shops post another job listing and wait for the right technician to find it.
But many experienced techs aren't actively searching job boards — they're already working.
They may still be open to better pay, a better schedule, better leadership, or a better shop.
Our recruiting campaigns help put your opportunity in front of those technicians in your local market.
Results
Two shops. Two hires. Both now leading the shop floor.
The Mechanic Shop — Amarillo, TX
Hired an experienced A-tech who now runs the shop floor.
APR1 Automotive — Amarillo, TX
After three years of searching, hired an A-tech who's now being trained as foreman.
The Process
How The Technician Search Works
We Learn Who You Need
We learn about your shop, the technician you're looking for, compensation, experience requirements, schedule, and what makes your opportunity worth considering.
We Build The Campaign
We create the recruiting ads, messaging, application process, and backend needed for your technician search.
We Put Your Shop In Front Of Techs
We run targeted recruiting campaigns in your market designed to reach automotive technicians — including people who may not currently be searching job boards.
We Screen Every Applicant
Every applicant gets a few quick screening questions by text, so you know who's responsive, who meets your must-haves, and who's actually interested before you ever pick up the phone.
You always make the final hiring decision. Our job is to build and manage the search and generate opportunities for conversations with technicians in your market.
Included With Every Search
Keep Every Applicant In One Place.
Don't lose track of good candidates once they start coming in.
Every search comes with a dedicated applicant pipeline for your shop. Every applicant automatically comes into one place where you can:
- See their contact information
- Review their application
- Call them
- Leave notes
- Keep track of follow-ups
- Move candidates through your hiring process
Who This Is For
Built For Shops That Already Have The Work.
This service is designed for established independent auto repair shops that:
- Already have steady customer demand
- Need another productive technician
- Are struggling to find experienced candidates
- Have work being delayed or turned away
- Are ready to move quickly when a strong candidate appears
This probably isn't the right fit if you're simply exploring the idea of hiring someday or aren't currently prepared to bring another technician onto the team.
Why Maximized Leads
