Fight Forward

What if the real barrier to your success isn't the goal itself—but how you're thinking about it? On this episode of Aftermarket All-Access, Chris Messer, vice president of transportation at Endeavor Business Media, and Mike Jones, president of Discover Leadership, join editorial director Chris Jones to explore a mindset shift that's reshaping how supply chain leaders and distributors approach growth. They discuss why focusing on what you want to achieve—rather than what you're trying to avoid—creates measurable improvements in business performance, team culture, and your ability to lead through change. Whether you're managing operations, building your team, or navigating industry disruption, this conversation offers practical insights for driving real results.

Dr. Kent MacDonald on Building the Next Generation of Automotive Leaders

In this episode, Dr. Kent MacDonald, president of Northwood University, sat down to talk about educating the next generation of automotive and aftermarket professionals. But first, he shared what it was like interviewing Wayne Gretzky — and how the hockey legend's philosophy of "skating to where the puck is going" applies directly to the automotive industry's future. Northwood isn't your typical university. It's America's automotive, mobility, and aftermarket university. MacDonald explains ways the aftermarket industry can support Northwood — from scholarships and mentorship to employee benefit programs — and the ROI data that proves investing in Northwood education pays off for families and employers alike.

What 2025 Taught Us About the Aftermarket—And What Comes Next

What's really happening in the automotive aftermarket right now? Mike Chung, senior director, market intelligence at the Auto Care Association. He digs into the data to reveal the trends that matter most to shop owners and auto parts distributors. In this episode, held at AAPEX, we explore tariff impacts on parts supply, inflationary pressures on consumer purchasing, and a surprising shift in tire buying habits: why consumers are trading down to lower-tier brands and what that means for premium manufacturers' long-term customer loyalty. We also discuss delayed maintenance patterns, substitutionary product purchases, and what the data is forecasting for 2026. If you're trying to understand your customers' behavior and make smarter business decisions, this conversation cuts through the noise and gets to what the numbers actually reveal about the health and direction of the industry.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
