How Two Shop Owners Changed Collision Repair | Ep #123

In this powerful episode, Micki Woods is joined by Jeff Butler and Justin Lewis—two shop owners who fought for years to protect collision shops and consumers alike, and won.They helped pass a groundbreaking Right to Appraisal (RTA) bill in Washington, and they’re here to share what every shop owner needs to know about it—and how to take action in your own state.Here’s what you’ll learn:✅ What RTA Actually Is: Why it matters, how it works, and why most shops are still misunderstanding it.✅ Why WA Had to Step Up: How insurers were writing RTA out of policies—and how Jeff and Justin fought to make it mandatory.✅ “Competent Appraiser” Defined: What that term really means (and why a boat damage appraiser has no business near a Tesla claim).✅ What Shops Can Do Now: Whether you’re in WA or not, here’s how to educate customers, document better, and fight smarter—not harder.If you’ve ever been short-paid, ignored by insurance, or frustrated with the lack of leverage, this episode is a must-listen.🔔 Subscribe now on YouTube, Spotify, or Apple Podcasts so you don’t miss what’s next.👇 RESOURCES & LINKS:🎧 Subscribe to Body Bangin’ on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/491aIUWJ72fFpVARROeRcA▶️ Watch more Body Bangin’ episodes on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@UCwbN0Tv3xo9RFBDNN2G5SjQ 📧 Connect with Jeff Butler & Justin Lewis: Jeff Butler: [email protected] Lewis: [email protected]🔗 Follow Micki on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/micki-woods-36374121🚀 Need help growing your shop with marketing that actually drives leads?
