Is your estimate enough to make the sale?

Some good old fashioned clever body shop branding can increase customer conversions When someone is considering taking their car to you, what do you give them to aid their decision?  Is your estimate enough to complete the sale? What do you have on hand RIGHT NOW to make your case to the customer to choose your shop? Got NOTHING?Some shops have absolutely nothing to hand to their customers to earn their business. Sure the customer is at your shop and is getting an estimate, and maybe they are…See More

What brings auto repair customers to your door?

If your shop offers mechanical services in addition to auto body, what kinds of things have definitively brought cars to the door? Coupons? Free diagnostics? I have a client with a small one location body shop who is looking to beef up the mechanical side of his business (brake jobs, oil changes, alignments, etc). I'd love to know what has been effective in your shops. I can help him get found, but I'm looking for some good workable attraction ideas to change visits into leads (jobs). Thanks in…See More

CIECA Repair Order Committee History and Milestones

In 2008 a “face to face” meeting was held in Scottsdale,…See More
