Automotive Solutions introduces its automotive inspection system, designed to bring in new store traffic to repair shops while also selling more services to the customers they already have.
Automotive Solutions has spent a few years developing this product to make it streamlined and user friendly, the company reports. It has already implemented it within a major national chain with excellent results. Automotive repair shops everywhere expand their services and tap in to the millions of private party used car sales by offering this standardized electronic inspection and certification program.
Key customer information is gathered and entered in a PDA. This information includes VIN, make, model, year, mileage, license plate number, state, tire size and other vehicle condition questions. The software takes the service technician through a series of detailed inspection questions, noting areas that might need attention by the customer. This data is then sent electronically to Automotive Solutions servers where it is analyzed and returned in certificate form via email.
The program takes the process even further by offering the ability to custom-tailor service and tire coupons to generate up-sell opportunities and repeat business, according to the company. Service reminders can be built in as well. These features allow shops to expand their offering and encourage new business while providing the customer a complete, professional report on the condition of their vehicle.
In addition to the “Pre-Purchase Inspection”, other service levels are available including “Quick/Courtesy Inspection”, “Tire Inspection” or “Vehicle Profile” for easy, electronic documentation of each customer. All can be customized with store coupons, tire offers, and can be automatically e-mailed.
