A Recipe for Success

Mackenna Herr • Mar 24, 2023

"No one starts at the top. You have to climb."

This Shop Owner Success webinar is for every shop owner who has put in the time and effort to make it to the top. It's for the shop owners that want to build their business and expand to multiple shops. This month we're featuring a shop that was struggling to pull in more than $100K annually.


The last I had spoken with AJ Nealey of Nealey Tire and Auto Service, he owned 3 locations. Now he owns 5 and has an aggressive growth plan to own 100 by 2035. His marketing plan was instrumental in his success. Even when his car count was down, it was paramount that he stuck to the plan.


Join Jimmy Lea, KUKUI's Rock Star host, and AJ Nealey, owner of Nealey Tire and Auto Service, as they discuss how AJ's marketing plan helped shape is success!
