I was a mobile mechanic for four years - AMA

I am completely self-taught and started this hustle almost no knowledge. Every time someone asked for a quote I would YouTube the job and if it looked like I could do it I would.

By the end of the four years I was completely burnt out. I never had formal training or shop experience and because of that was never comfortable charging what I should have been by the time I was more experienced.

I wasn't perfect but I did manage to maintain a five star rating with 30+ reviews on Facebook, where I did all of my business. Ama.
