What if the path everyone tells you to take… isn’t the one that actually leads to freedom?For years, owning a wrap shop has been seen as the goal.More jobs. More clients. More growth.But what if that path leads to burnout instead?In this episode, Kado Serri-Charette (Head of Brand and Growth at Tint Wiz) shares his journey from running a full-service wrap shop to walking away and stepping into a completely different role within the industry.A move that gave him more clarity, more alignment, and a different kind of growth.In this episode0:00 — "Being your own boss" isn't what you think1:03 — Meet Kado from Tint Wiz2:01 — From the oil fields to vinyl wrapping3:21 — Opening his own shop: wraps, PPF, tint, everything4:05 — Three months in: why he needed a system4:24 — The call that changed everything5:16 — How posting content opened unexpected doors7:11 — Getting sponsored to compete: first class, fully paid10:19 — Two years of adding value before any job offer11:26 — "Where do you see yourself in 5 to 10 years?"12:03 — Why knowing what you hate matters as much as knowing what you want13:42 — His role: Head of Brand and Growth at Tint Wiz17:00 — Why every shop needs a CRM20:18 — Stop selling.

Most wrap shops look for the “right way” to do things. The right material. The right process. The right system.But the best shops do something different.They test. Constantly.In this episode, recorded live with Jay Kroll from General Formulations, the conversation centers around experimentation and why the shops that grow fastest are the ones willing to try, fail, and adjust in real time.In this episode:• Why waiting for the perfect process slows most shops down• How top shops use testing to improve installs, materials, and workflow• What suppliers see from shops that consistently perform at a high level• Why material choice is less important than how you work with it• The role of curiosity in becoming a better installer and operator• How small adjustments lead to big long term gains• Why feedback loops between shop and supplier matter• The difference between guessing and intentional testingThere is no final version of your process.The best wrap shops are always experimenting.Always refining.Always improving.They do not wait until they have every answer.They take action, learn fast, and adjust.If you want to grow your shop, stop looking for certainty.Start testing.Connect with Jay Kroll and General Formulations: generalformulations.comhttps://www.instagram.com/general_formulations—---------------------------------------------------------------This episode is sponsored by Wrap Fam Unleashed:https://www.thewrapfam.com/subscribeGet 15% off the Wrap Institute - https://www.wrapinstitute.com/joinPROMO CODE: WRAPOPS15Grimco: Use code is WRAPOPS5 for a one-time 5% discount on all Grimco Items (excluding MRP items).Visit: https://go.grimco.com/3Mzt7eSConnect with WrapOps:http://www.wrapops.comhttp://Instagram.com/wrap.opshttp://facebook.com/share/1VQgsUHygh/?mibextid=wwXIfrProduced in partnership with http://www.podlad.com[0:00] Introduction: The Power of Curiosity Andrew kicks off the episode live from the International Sign Association (ISA) expo, gives a shoutout to The Wrap Institute, and introduces Jay Cruel from General Formulations.[1:55] Jay’s Background: From Medical Devices to Vinyl Wraps Jay shares his unique origin story, transitioning from engineering life-saving medical bandages for gunshot wounds to designing and developing adhesive films for the graphics industry.[10:05] Educating the Customer & Mastering the Discovery Call Andrew and Jay discuss the reality of dealing with first-time wrap customers. They cover how to set proper expectations, why you should make customers bring their vehicles to your shop, and using your space as a visual tour.[15:24] The 70-Year History of General Formulations (GF) A deep dive into GF’s roots starting in 1953 as "General Assembly." Jay explains how the company evolved from building screen printing equipment to engineering cross-platform vinyl materials.[19:04] Navigating Distributors & Choosing the Right Material How exactly do you buy General Formulations products? Jay breaks down their vast network of distributors and explains the importance of asking the ultimate question: “What are we sticking this to?”[24:14] Inventory Strategies & COVID Supply Chain Lessons Andrew shares how his shop built a $20,000 inventory closet to survive supply chain crashes, and Jay explains why material scarcity is actually the perfect excuse to test out newer, more cost-effective films.[30:03] How to Partner with Your Manufacturer Beyond just buying rolls of vinyl, Jay explains how wrap shops can leverage their relationship with manufacturers for tech support, product education, and utilizing their shop as a physical demo space.[35:03] Vetting Materials & Turning Failures into Lifelong Customers How to spot cheap, unreliable materials (like films using permanent construction adhesive). Andrew also shares a shop horror story of failing a Chevy Express van wrap twice—and how owning the mistake built a customer for life.[42:15] Beyond the Squeegee: GF’s Training & Certification Jay details General Formulations' upcoming training programs. It’s not just about how to hold a squeegee; it’s about understanding surface science, material behavior, and high-level installation troubleshooting.[48:30] Final Thoughts: Stay Curious & Outro Jay leaves the audience with one final, powerful piece of advice for growing a wrap shop: always stay curious.

If you are struggling to hire or keep good people, this is likely why.Most wrap shops offer jobs. Very few offer a clear path to a career.In this episode, Tanor breaks down how shifting that mindset changes the quality of people you attract, how long they stay, and how they show up every day.In this episode00:00:00 - Introduction & The Podcast's Purpose: The hosts introduce the podcast's goal of helping owners run their wrap shops efficiently and avoid burnout.00:00:48 - Building a Career Ladder vs. a Job: The host discusses the importance of creating a detailed career ladder with skill-based pay structures instead of just offering a basic job. This approach provides clear benchmarks for advancement and helps eliminate uncomfortable raise conversations.00:05:12 - One-to-One Meetings & Being a "Nice Boss": Regular one-to-one check-ins are highlighted as a crucial way to communicate and support employee growth. Furthermore, younger generations prioritize working for a nice boss over a purely transactional relationship.00:08:53 - Sponsor Break: A quick break featuring a sponsorship message from Grimco.00:10:09 - Employee Benefits: Health, PTO, and Perks: Shops should explore benefits beyond basic pay, including health insurance and retirement plans. The host also breaks down PTO policies, suggesting a use-it-or-lose-it structure, paid birthdays, and bi-weekly team lunches.00:15:36 - Creating a Dedicated Careers Page: A business website should feature a "Careers" page rather than just relying on external job boards. A 15-minute booking link can also be included to build a continuous talent funnel.00:19:27 - Unconventional Job Perks & Outro: Employers should think outside the box and advertise unique job perks on their listings. Examples include promoting a headphone-friendly atmosphere, emphasizing a female and family-friendly environment, and offering paid trainingThe Core IdeaPeople are not just looking for a paycheck.They are looking for direction, growth, and a workplace where they feel valued.If you build a business that offers that, you will not just hire better people.You will keep them.Better people build better shops.And it starts with how you position the opportunity.This episode is sponsored by Wrap Fam Unleashed:https://www.thewrapfam.com/subscribeGet 15% off the Wrap Institute - https://www.wrapinstitute.com/joinPROMO CODE: WRAPOPS15Grimco: Use code is WRAPOPS5 for a one-time 5% discount on all Grimco Items (excluding MRP items).Visit: https://go.grimco.com/3Mzt7eSConnect with WrapOps:http://www.wrapops.comhttp://Instagram.com/wrap.opshttp://facebook.com/share/1VQgsUHygh/?mibextid=wwXIfrProduced in partnership with http://www.podlad.com

Running a wrap shop means juggling installs, consultations, supplier meetings, staff management, networking events, and personal life all at the same time.The problem is not usually a lack of work.It is a lack of organization.In this episode Andrew and Tanor explain why switching to a digital calendar is one of the simplest upgrades you can make to run your shop more professionally, avoid missed meetings, and stay ahead of the chaos of daily shop life.Paper Calendars Hold Shops BackA paper calendar is better than no calendar. But it creates friction.You cannot access it everywhere.You cannot share it with your team.You cannot automate reminders.A digital calendar solves those problems instantly and makes it easier to schedule meetings, consultations, and shop tasks while you are on the move.In this episode:• Why paper calendars create friction in a busy shop• How shared calendars help teams stay aligned• Using booking links to eliminate scheduling back and forth• Time blocking to make space for important work• Pre scheduling recurring tasks like payroll and meetings• Why planning personal time matters just as much as workA digital calendar is not about being rigid.It is about removing mental clutter.When meetings, deadlines, and recurring tasks are organized automatically, you free up your attention to focus on running the shop.Tools and Resources mentioned:https://calendly.com/This episode is sponsored by Wrap Fam Unleashed:https://www.thewrapfam.com/subscribeGet 15% off the Wrap Institute - https://www.wrapinstitute.com/joinPROMO CODE: WRAPOPS15Grimco: Use code is WRAPOPS5 for a one-time 5% discount on all Grimco Items (excluding MRP items).Visit: https://go.grimco.com/3Mzt7eSConnect with WrapOps:http://www.wrapops.comhttp://Instagram.com/wrap.opshttp://facebook.com/share/1VQgsUHygh/?mibextid=wwXIfrProduced in partnership with http://www.podlad.com

In this episode, Tanor throws out common customer service advice that gets repeated in every industry. Andrew rates each one out of 10 based on real world wrap shop experience.Some of these ideas sound great in theory. Some can damage your shop if applied blindly. Together they break down what actually works inside a production driven wrap environment where deadlines, material costs, and installer bandwidth matter.This episode doubles as a practical guide. Use the ratings and discussion to audit your own shop.04:18 The customer is always rightRating: SituationalIn wrap shops this phrase can either protect your reputation or destroy your margins. The takeaway is not that the customer is always correct about vinyl or installation. The customer is always right about their expectations.Most complaints come from unclear proofs, rushed approvals, or assumptions. If a roof was expected to be wrapped and it was not, that is a systems problem. Clear communication prevents most “difficult customer” situations before they start.07:53 Ask customers for adviceRating: HighWrap shops rarely ask customers how the experience felt. Yet feedback reveals friction in quoting, scheduling, design revisions, install timing, and pickup process.Some of Performance Wraps’ improvements came directly from irritated customers. The key is to listen without becoming defensive. Not every suggestion gets implemented, but patterns reveal where systems are weak.14:44 Maintain a personalized approachRating: BalancedPersonal touches matter. Remembering details. Following up. Making clients feel known.But wrap shops are production businesses. If personalization breaks workflow or creates inconsistency for staff, it becomes chaos. The lesson is to personalize within a structured system. Not outside of it.18:16 Use customer names in every interactionRating: Useful but not magicUsing names builds connection. It signals attention. But repeating a name in every sentence feels robotic.In wrap shops the real connection comes from clarity, respect, and setting realistic timelines. Names help. Systems matter more.23:35 Price objections mean you do not communicate valueRating: Partially trueSome price objections come from poor explanation. Others come from customers who simply want the cheapest option.Wrap shops operate in a wide price range. You are not for everyone. Value communication matters, but not every objection is your fault. Understanding your market positioning is more important than trying to convert every lead.27:24 Always respond immediatelyRating: During business hours onlyFast response builds trust. But responding at midnight trains customers to expect 24 hour access. There is no such thing as a wrap emergency.Clear business hour boundaries protect your sanity and your team.30:35 If the customer complains, refund themRating: LowRefunding often avoids the real issue. In most cases the better solution is to fix the wrap, own the mistake, and protect the relationship.Service recovery builds long term trust. Refund culture can train customers to escalate for leverage.35:50 Customer retention is more important than acquisitionRating: Very highMost long term growth in wrap shops comes from repeat fleet clients, referrals, and word of mouth.Chasing new leads while ignoring existing relationships creates instability. Retention creates predictable revenue and lowers marketing pressure.Key Takeaways for Wrap Shops• Clear expectations prevent most complaints• Feedback exposes broken systems• Personalization must work inside your workflow• Not every price objection is your problem• Boundaries improve service not hurt it• Fixing mistakes builds more loyalty than refunds• Retention compounds faster than constant acquisitionCustomer service in a wrap shop is not about being soft. It is about being structured, consistent, and calm under pressure.Quality gets them in the door. Experience keeps them coming back.This episode is sponsored by Wrap Fam Unleashed:https://www.thewrapfam.com/subscribeGet 15% off the Wrap Institute - https://www.wrapinstitute.com/joinPROMO CODE: WRAPOPS15Grimco: Use code is WRAPOPS5 for a one-time 5% discount on all Grimco Items (excluding MRP items).Visit: https://go.grimco.com/3Mzt7eSConnect with WrapOps:http://www.wrapops.comhttp://Instagram.com/wrap.opshttp://facebook.com/share/1VQgsUHygh/?mibextid=wwXIfrProduced in partnership with http://www.podlad.com

Most wrap shop owners think their biggest risk is sales drying up, bad hires, or slow seasons. In reality, you can recover from almost every business mistake. There is one decision that quietly compounds every single day and makes running a business either sustainable or unbearable.In this solo episode, Tanor talks about the factor that determines whether a wrap shop owner grows or burns out. It has nothing to do with marketing, pricing, or strategy. It is the person you go home to after the shop closes.This is a deeply honest conversation about relationships, support, communication, and why no amount of business strategy can outwork chaos at home.💡 What You Will Learn in This Episode• Why you can recover from bad hires, bad installs, and bad decisions but not from constant personal friction• How the wrong partner drains energy during already stressful shop seasons• Why many people misunderstand what results actually look like in the early years of ownership• How support does not mean agreeing with every decision• Why belief before proof matters for entrepreneurs• How Andrew and Tanor learned to course correct instead of giving up on each other📋 Key Takeaways• Your home environment affects your shop more than you realize• Support looks like belief, steadiness, and honest conversation• Growth creates tension that must be talked through• Results are not always money, sometimes they are time, peace, and stability• You need a partner who expands your life, not shrinks it• Communication is not optional if you want longevity🧠 Key MindsetYou do not need someone to fix your problems. You need someone who helps you survive the hard seasons without making them heavier. A great partner does not remove pressure. They help you carry it.🌀 No amount of wrap shop strategy will save you if your energy is constantly drained at home.This episode is sponsored by Wrap Fam Unleashed:https://www.thewrapfam.com/subscribeGet 15% off the Wrap Institute - https://www.wrapinstitute.com/joinPROMO CODE: WRAPOPS15Connect with WrapOps:http://www.wrapops.comhttp://Instagram.com/wrap.opshttp://facebook.com/share/1VQgsUHygh/?mibextid=wwXIfrProduced in partnership with http://www.podlad.com

Most wrap shop owners feel the urge to improve something long before they know exactly how to do it. A new system. A new hire. A better process. A new direction for the business.The problem is that too many owners stop right there. They research. They wait. They tell themselves they need more information before they move. And in the name of reducing risk, they end up delaying the very progress they want.Andrew and Tanor Banks learned early that waiting does not create clarity. Action does. When they feel the pull to do something new, they move, accept that mistakes will happen, and adjust fast. That simple loop has driven almost every breakthrough at Performance Wraps.💡 What You Will Learn in This Episode• Why action creates clarity faster than research• How waiting for the right time becomes a form of fear• Why mistakes are part of the process, not a sign you are failing• How Andrew and Tanor used iteration to improve installs, leadership, and systems• Why confidence comes after action, not before it• How feedback accelerates growth when you are willing to listen• Why quitting too early does more damage than failing• How ownership requires decisions, not just technical skill🧠 Key MindsetThe goal is not to avoid mistakes. The goal is to shorten the gap between action and adjustment. The faster you close that loop, the faster your business grows.🌀 Waiting feels safe, but it is the riskiest move of all. Growth belongs to the people who move first and refine as they go.This episode is sponsored by Wrap Fam Unleashed:https://www.thewrapfam.com/subscribeGet 15% off the Wrap Institute - https://www.wrapinstitute.com/joinPROMO CODE: WRAPOPS15Connect with WrapOps:http://www.wrapops.comhttp://Instagram.com/wrap.opshttp://facebook.com/share/1VQgsUHygh/?mibextid=wwXIfrProduced in partnership with http://www.podlad.com

If your shop feels chaotic, stressful, or emotionally exhausting, the problem is rarely your team. Most of the time, it is the way decisions are being made. When choices are driven by gut reactions, isolated incidents, or one loud emotion, everything feels urgent and nothing feels clear.In this episode of The WrapOps Podcast, Andrew and Tanor explain how shifting from emotional decision making to data based decision making completely changed the way they run Performance Wraps. This is not about becoming corporate or cold. It is about sharpening your instincts with facts so you can stop firefighting and start planning.This conversation breaks down how any shop, even a one or two person operation, can start using simple metrics to reduce stress, forecast problems, and create clarity across the entire business.💡 What You Will Learn in This Episode• Why shops that run on emotion always feel dramatic• How data helps you forecast problems instead of reacting to them• Why instinct still matters and how to support it with facts• How to break your business into departments even if you wear every hat• The difference between tracking everything and tracking what matters• Why three to five metrics per department is enough• How data shows you where to look without telling you what to do• Why missed deadlines are usually a systems issue not a people issue• How tracking removes arguments and replaces them with clarity🧠 Key MindsetData does not replace leadership. It supports it. When you run your shop on numbers instead of noise, stress drops, clarity improves, and decisions become calmer and more confident.🌀 The goal is not control. The goal is clarity. When you know what is really happening in your business, the drama fades and progress follows.📎 Resources Mentioned in This EpisodeEntrepreneurial Operating System bookhttps://www.eosworldwide.com/traction-bookThis episode is sponsored by Wrap Fam Unleashed:https://www.thewrapfam.com/subscribeGet 15% off the Wrap Institute - https://www.wrapinstitute.com/joinPROMO CODE: WRAPOPS15Connect with WrapOps:http://www.wrapops.comhttp://Instagram.com/wrap.opshttp://facebook.com/share/1VQgsUHygh/?mibextid=wwXIfrProduced in partnership with http://www.podlad.com

Most wrap shops think marketing means ads, agencies, or spending money they do not have. The truth is that some of the most effective marketing strategies cost nothing at all. They just require intention, consistency, and a clear understanding of who you are actually trying to reach.In this solo episode of The WrapOps Podcast, Tanor Banks breaks down exactly how she built Performance Wraps using organic marketing alone. No paid ads. No marketing degree. Just years of testing what made the phone ring and what did not.This is for any shop owner who wants real leads, not vanity metrics. If you are tired of chasing likes and followers that never turn into sales, this conversation will change how you approach marketing forever 💡 What You Will Learn in This Episode• Why marketing should always be measured by whether the phone rings• How watching ads can train your brain to become a better marketer• What makes an ad memorable and how to apply that thinking to a wrap shop• Why identifying a clear target market makes marketing easier and more effective• How choosing commercial clients creates stability and repeat work• Why Facebook Marketplace attracts bargain hunters and when that matters• Why chasing followers feeds the ego but not the business• How engagement beats follower count every time• The difference between being the face of your business and building a brand that can run without you🧠 Key MindsetOrganic marketing is not about being perfect or viral. It is about showing up consistently with intention. The shops that win are the ones that keep going long after others quit.Resources mentioned:Metricool FREE Scheduling tool:https://metricool.com/Previous episode on how Following up wins business:https://youtu.be/PM95j7VpOOoThis episode is sponsored by Wrap Fam Unleashed:https://www.thewrapfam.com/subscribeGet 15% off the Wrap Institute - https://www.wrapinstitute.com/joinPROMO CODE: WRAPOPS15Connect with WrapOps:http://www.wrapops.comhttp://Instagram.com/wrap.opshttp://facebook.com/share/1VQgsUHygh/?mibextid=wwXIfrProduced in partnership with http://www.podlad.com
