Following Up with Customers at a Repair Service Shop

Tags: , , ,

Rhonda Hiltbrand of NWZ WORX writes, “I have the privilege from time-to-time to work with service advisors behind the counter.  It is interesting to see how easy so many of you make it look when I can see it is so involved.  To the customer, it looks easy!  They just come in and drop the keys off.  The service advisor calls and tells them the service needed and the cost involved.  They return and pick up their finished vehicle and pay.  End of story.  Seems so flawless and effortless.

The Banana Theory: How Customers Spoil

Tags: , , , ,

Repair Shop Websites partner story, by Automotive Training Institute

How many times have you purchased a bunch of bananas at the store?  I’m talking that perfect, firm, just the right shade of yellow and smelling exactly like a banana should smell.  You bring the bunch home and maybe even snack on one or two right away, thinking that all is right with the world.  Then, like a lot of other things, we take them for granted and forget about them.  The next time we look for that perfect banana, we find instead a soft, mushy, thing that…

Innovative idea offers women peace of mind in repair shops

Tags: , , , , ,

We at www.repairshopwebsites.com have discovered a significant statistic when it comes to women and automotive repair experiences.  According to the article, “Women should study car repair 101” which originally appeared in The Detroit News, a shocking 89 percent of women reported to the Car Care Council that they felt treated differently by their mechanic because they are female.   To turn this statistic around, Gail Dunn, a car-savvy lady, started a program geared toward women and caring for their automobiles—the Women’s Automotive Connection.  Dunn’s organization offers a consultation and referral service for a reasonable fee that advises…
