Auto Damage Experts’ Barrett Smith to Speak at Coyote Group Meeting in Nashville

With the presentation titled "A Casual Conversation," Smith hopes to educate the 50-plus attendees on the many associated and avoidable liabilities today’s collision repairers are confronted with on a daily basis.

Auto Damage Experts, Inc. (ADE) announced that its founder and president, Barrett Smith, AAM,  has been asked to speak at the Coyote Vision Group meeting this week in Nashville, Tenn.

The Coyote Vision Group is a select group of highly successful collision repairers from across North America facilitated by Elainna Sachire of Square One Systems, Inc. Members come together four times a year at various locations across the country to share real-life successes and failures of various activities, systems and processes with each other with the goal of enhancing their operations and profitability.

“I’m familiar with the Coyote Group from when I was an owner operator of my collision repair facilities in Florida, and I am flattered that I was asked to meet and speak with them for the afternoon,” said Smith. “I’ve titled the presentation, ‘A Casual Conversation,’ and I intend to get a substantial amount of thought-provoking discussion among the 50 or so in attendance regarding contemporary issues such as the many associated and avoidable liabilities that today’s collision repairers are confronted with on a daily basis. It’s a very forward-thinking and successful group comprised of independent, MSO, consolidator, OEM dealership and franchise collision repairers whose businesses generate anywhere from $3 million to $50 million in annual sales. Many of today’s collision industry ‘best practices’ were derived from such meetings to meet the ever-changing industry trends and issues, and I appreciate the group selecting me to contribute to their efforts.”
