Dec. 5, 2013—Summit eMarketing Sherpas’ AutoVoto mobile app platform has been approved for both the Google and Apple app stores, the company announced Wednesday.

The app, which works on both smartphones and tablets, is designed to provide collision shops with sales, marketing, communication, and customer service tools.

"The AutoVoto app platform allows auto body shops to utilize their smart phones or tablets to perform major aspects of their daily responsibilities such as taking photos or videos, repair documentation, and vehicle status,” said Frank Terlep, CEO and lead sherpa at Summit. “AutoVoto then allows the shop to share the photos, videos, notes, and vehicle status with the consumer via email, text, social media, the consumer's mobile devices, or the shop's website. AutoVoto even allows shops to share photos and videos with their computer networks, estimating and shop management systems."

Summit also said the AutoVoto platform is integrated with eMarketPlace, its Web, social and mobile sales, marketing and customer service platform.
