Breaking into the Automotive Aftermarket with Laura Hall | Ep. 1
In this episode
You’ll get to know host Andy Brooke and meet Laura Hall, Managing Director at Maverick Diagnostics. Laura’s route into the automotive aftermarket wasn’t a typical one. Before joining Maverick Diagnostics, she worked internationally in the oil and gas sector, ran her own jewellery business, and built a career that’s taken her everywhere from Moscow to the Pacific island of Sakhalin.
In this conversation, Andy and Laura talk about her unusual career path, her love of languages, and what it’s like breaking into the automotive sector as a woman from a completely different background.
Key learnings in this episode
- Why passion for innovation and technology attracted Laura into the automotive aftermarket.
- How Maverick Diagnostics supports workshops worldwide with OEM diagnostic tools, and why Laura sees Australia as an untapped market.
- How stepping into a new industry from the outside can bring a fresh perspective.
Quote of the episode
"One thing I've learned coming into this industry is it's actually really positive to be an outsider. I think you ask questions that other people wouldn't."
