The Auto Shop Manager OS

🔧 Turn Your Garage Into a Professional Business (Without the Monthly Fees)

Are you tired of losing track of parts, guessing your profit margins, or drowning in sticky notes?

Professional shop management software (like ShopMonkey or Tekmetric) costs $300+ per month. That is over $3,600 a year just to track your work.

The Auto Shop Manager OS is the lifetime alternative. It is a complete Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system built entirely in Notion. Whether you are a professional independent mechanic, a high-volume car flipper, or a restoration specialist, this system handles the chaos so you can focus on the wrenching.

💼 Who is this for?

• Independent Mechanics: Manage client jobs, generate invoices, and track labor hours.
• Car Flippers: Calculate "Maximum Bid" prices, track restoration costs, and see your exact profit per vehicle.
• Restoration Shops: Manage complex, multi-month projects with thousands of parts.
• Fleet Managers: Track maintenance schedules for 10+ vehicles.

🌟 What's Inside? (The 20-Database Ecosystem)

This isn't just a checklist. It is a 4-part operating system:

1. 🏎️ The Asset Hub

• Fleet Management: Track VINs, mileage, and status for unlimited cars.
• Parts Inventory: Automatic stock deduction. Know exactly what’s on Shelf A vs. what’s installed on the BMW.
• Supplier Database: Rate vendors and track return policies.

2. ⚙️ The Operations Engine

• Service Jobs: Track active repairs with a professional workflow (Scheduled -> Waiting on Parts -> Done).
• Labor Guide (Master Tasks): Save your standard jobs (e.g., "Oil Change - 0.5 Hrs") to quote accurately every time.
• Diagnostics Mode: Log issues during inspections and convert them into paid jobs later.

3. 💰 The Finance Suite

• Profit Analytics: Automatically calculate Sale Price - (Purchase + Parts + Labor) to see your Net Profit.
• Invoicing: Generate professional estimates and bills for clients.
• Expense Ledger: Track every penny spent on tools, auction fees, and overhead.

4. 📚 The Knowledge Base

• Sourcing Pipeline: Analyze deals from FB Marketplace/Craigslist before you buy.
• Compatibility Research: Document part swaps and forum findings.
• Digital Glovebox: Store PDFs, manuals, and title documents for every car.

📊 Why choose this over software?

• Zero Monthly Fees: Pay once, own it forever.
• Fully Customizable: Need to add a "Paint Code" field? You can. You own the system.
• Mobile Ready: Check inventory or log an expense from the driveway on your phone.
