With knowledge, comes power. And with garage data, comes informed business decisions. Today's GW Podcast explores the power of workshop data.

We welcome on Tim Benson of Oldfield’s Garage in Herefordshire who transformed his family business by analysing data.

We also hear from Alex Lindley, director of Garage Hive and managing director of Nottinghamshire-based Lindleys Autocentres to find out about Garage Industry Trends - an exciting new platform which uses aggregated data from opted-in Garage Hive workshops to create key performance metrics in real-time.
