WOTPod 008 w/ Marco Zwanenburg

In this episode of WOTPod, we sit down with Marco Zwanenburg - Mercedes Master Tech turned Mentor to Technicians and Founding Father of the Fixed Ops RoundTable.We talk about what flat rate success really looks like. Not the excuses. Not the shop gossip. The mindset, discipline and financial awareness that keep you winning when the work is good and when the bays are empty.Marco breaks down the shift techs must make to control their careers:• Treat flat rate like a business, not a gamble• Build efficiency without cutting corners• Maintain productive habits during slow seasons so you don’t fall off• Stop letting the tool truck drain your future• Choose better role models and mentors intentionally• Stay focused on your goals, not the guy complaining in the corner• Turn every job — even warranty — into a skill and speed builder.If you’re tired of hearing “flat rate is broken,” Marco brings the counter-argument: flat rate rewards the tech who prepares, stays sharp and plays the long game.Connect with Marco on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marco-j-zwanenburg-a132174a/🎙 Hosted by: Curtis (@TechGnarr) & Jalid (@NoBuck_JS)Watch more episodes:  @WOTPod  Follow us on Instagram: @techgnarr | @nobuck_js
