getting help

[starman]

Dose anyone have someone helping you in with your wrs?And if so how do you go about it without them learning it and start their own WSR and taking your work from you?

My 15yr old son helps me when not in school and it does make thing go smoother. I do think your looking at it all wrong though having a helper become a good tech themselves means someone in a second truck rather than a competitor if you make thier pay a percentage. Employees leave ,workers with a vested interest stay and help raise profits, make them feel like part of a team not a employee

Hey Starman, I did this all on my own and it only happened with the help of this forum. Got a windshield, made around 50 repairs and when things went wrong came right back here to get my answers. I also was lucky enough to go to the MTE show last month and learned alot from Jeff, Matt and Coitster. I am just doing this part time now so I have the time to get it right.

Starman.

No.

Other than training close friends and/or relatives, there is no assurance including non-competitive contracts that will preclude them from becoming your competitor in the future.

Even those categorities don't guarantee the possibility will never rear its head in the future.

Either take the chance or don't.

Choose wisely or don't choose at all.

I agree totally with Desert's advice. I've trained one competitor who was working with me when he didn't know jack. Now I get to point at him with my special finger on the way to work every day.

Never again.
