Show Notes

We're kicking off the first episode of 2024 with a discussion on what social media can do for independent garage businesses.

Who better to chat social media than Nathan Taylor of Walsall Wood Tyre & Service?! Having successfully captured the attention of UK drivers, he's now keen for other workshops to step-up and help promote the independent garage sector in all of its glory.

The Blend takes place on Saturday 28th September, 2024 at The Eastside Rooms in Birmingham.

The Blend Podcast is produced by Autotech Communications.
