Products & Services
Your Mister transmission “Service Technician” is a person, who removes,
completely disassembles, checks, replaces worn and broken parts or
overhauls completely any automotive transmission. Your trusted Technician is able to diagnose problems through visual inspection, road tests or with the assistance of electronic technology. Advances in technology are increasing the complexity and reliability of newer vehicles. This is expected to continue to increase the skill requirements of technicians and reduce the average number of repairs on each vehicle.
Diagnosing mechanical problems is increasingly being done with the assistance of electronic and computer-based equipment rather than relying entirely on the visual observations of Technicians. Education and on-going training are key to the success of your local Mister transmission repair centre. Your Technician’s continuous education ensures that you obtain an accurate diagnosis.
Why Mister Transmission?
Ken Catteau,
MISTER TRANSMISSION
FRANCHISEE,
GUELPH, ONTARIO
In my twenties, I didn't want to just work for someone else.
Sure, I wanted to make more money, but was also determined to keep control of my future in my own hands. Even back then, the Mister Transmission brand was extremely well known and the cost of a franchise was quite affordable (still is). So I took the leap and started my business.
In the early days, I saw all the trees, but not the forest. Although I was working hard, it seemed the business was running me – not the other way around! But, once I'd learned my lesson and started working on my business, rather than just at it, my franchise has continued to provide the satisfaction, income and flexibility needed to spend quality time with my family and close friends – and even a beautiful Nautilus 36 sailboat on which to do so!
Of course, it isn't always smooth sailing; but managing a Mister Transmission franchise lets me set my own course every morning and provides access to all the business resources and support I need to weather the squalls. After twenty-five years in business, I've reached and exceeded all my personal and professional goals.
Now I am Mister Transmission in my market and my community.
