This week’s key takeaway: Modernise your repair processes with the cloud-based LINQ platform Episode intro: Isn’t it great when new tech can help us do things better? In this episode you’ll hear how the PPG LINQ system is an absolute game-changer for mixing paint. We welcome back a good friend of the show, John Hristias (Sales Director, PPG Refinish), and one of his delighted customers, Lewis Richards (Geoff Richards Panel Beating) to explain how LINQ can make day-to-day work more accurate and efficient. One of the biggest costs in your business will be paint. If you use a system like LINQ to optimise this, you could save yourself a load of money! In this week’s episode you will learn: * What’s new in LINQ * How much paint you can save by using LINQ * What you can do on a screen/simulation before you spray anything * How the role of the estimator can change * How easy it is to adopt LINQ * How Geoff Richards Panel Beating came up from nothing * Why you should build up a colour library * How LINQ is saving Lewis time and money * How you can make changes in a visualiser without spraying out onto card * Why a change to LINQ is more popular on the floor than most changes
