In this week’s episode, Russ Horrocks unpacks how to move beyond scripts and communicate to build trust. It’s about listening with purpose, showing up with intention, and allowing your technicians to guide a genuine conversation. When technicians lead with authenticity and passion, customers don’t just hear a diagnosis — they believe it.
