In this episode, we’ll step back from the day-to-day of collision repair and take a big-picture look at the future — EV adoption, autonomous vehicles, emerging technologies, and how all of this change is reshaping the entire ecosystem.

Our guest today is Bill Park, former shop owner and founder of Crunchit, a company dedicated to helping collision repair businesses gain the financial insights they need to succeed.
