The automotive repair industry is one that we’ve not covered in as much detail as the likes of F&B or fitness as of late, but it’s an important services segment that is seeing some entrepreneurs turn their passion for cars into a long-term business. One such operator in this space is Christian Brothers Automotive, and our guest today is the franchisor’s president and CEO, Donnie Carr. Donnie has been with the brand for upward of 15 years and has occupied many roles on his ascent to the top spot. This has allowed him to gain an intricate understanding of not only this industry but the minutiae of what makes Christian Brothers Automotive tick.   Join us as we learn about Donnie’s entrepreneurial lessons, his perspective on the importance of culture and empathy, and why he believes that automotive care remains a valuable franchising segment – even when millions of commuters stopped using their cars.  To keep your finger on the beating pulse of franchising, sign up for our newsletter at global-franchise.com, subscribe to our definitive magazine, and join the conversation with our experts today on LinkedIn, Twitter and Facebook.
