Our organization cannot be more grateful for the existence of the Collision Advice team. Mike, Tracy and Tiffany continue to be an integral part of our team and family and always have our best interest in mind. We’ve been working with the CA team since 2005 (15 years) and they are the reason why we are still in business today. When we met the team, our business was heading no where and the stress and frustrations of trying to operate a successful business were overwhelming and closing our doors seemed inevitable. The Collision Advice team showed us that there was another way and if we were willing to work hard and trust the process, brighter and better days were available to us. 15 years later, our organization has grown to 3 locations and is focused on continued expansion. I’m sure that there are many qualified and helpful consulting companies that offer exceptional services but in my heart and humble opinion, few will treat you like family and make self-sacrifices to see your organization thrive. With the Collision Advice team in your corner, yes you will always be in the know about cutting edge technology affecting our industry, have an opportunity to grow your business via OE and Insurance relationships and provide your team with the necessary training they need so that they and your organization are always Green and Growing. You will get all of these things and more. However, the single most important gift that the Collision Advice team will bring to your family is the accountability to hold you to the necessary standard that your business and team needs in order to keep moving forward and believing that you are capable of the greatness you envisioned for your team and loved ones the day you decided to open your doors for business. To the Collision Advice Team, my family and team members are forever grateful for everything you have done for us. Thank you!”

We've had the opportunity to work with Mike Anderson and his team at Collision Advice for many years. There is not an aspect of our business that they have not helped us improve. Mike's expertise helped us better analyze our financial reports to understand opportunities and improve the bottom line. His Customer Service training was instrumental in us creating an exceptional and intentional customer experience. Mike was influential in guiding our team to understand the importance of using Manufacturer repair procedures for every repair. His leadership keeps us abreast of today's ever-evolving vehicles and industry. We can act and adapt quickly because of the influence Mike and his team provides. The Collision Advice team gives us a competitive advantage that we could not get anywhere else. I am forever grateful to Mike, Tiffany, Tracy, Mark, and Josh for all the ways they have pushed us to grow to better our team members, provide an exceptional experience for our customers and all our partners.

I met Mike some years back at a conference and could instantly see his passion for our industry. I have since been in one of his 20 groups. I have not met anyone in our industry with his passion, commitment to repairing vehicles properly and his willingness to help others. His team at Collision Advice shares his passion. If you are looking for a person/team to talk straight and push you to your potential, look no further.

Collision Advice has forever changed the way I do business. With on-site training they taught us how to do proper blueprinting, how to organize our administrative systems for higher efficiency and how to organize our parts processes for higher efficiency. They also helped us build a new set of Chart of Accounts so we could see exactly where our money is coming from and going to. Collison Advice is who introduced us to OEM Repair Procedures and they are the reason we chose to become OEM Certified. My business skills and knowledge have greatly increased since I started working with Collision Advice. I recently bought a 2nd location and I can thank Collision Advice for the knowledge, support and dedication to help me achieve my goals.”

Mike and his team at Collision Advice are second to none. To say that they have helped to grow our business in the handful of years we’ve been working with them is an understatement. As a family and management team, Mike has held us accountable in ways that no other facilitator has. Their passion to ensure our business is held to the highest standard in collision repair is equally as important as it is for us to be profitable and successful. This team is committed to the future of our industry and they want to work with shops that have the same mentality.
Mike’s connections and his drive to see this industry grow is invaluable. They care. They are committed, they MAKE things happen and are advocates for positive change within our industry. When working with this team, we are the wind and never the flag!
Uncle Mike and the CA Team isn’t only a business resource for us, they are family.
