Why missed calls cost auto repair shops jobs

A shop phone rings all day while everyone is working. After close, a driver who just broke down calls whoever answers.

Most callers will not leave a voicemail. They call the next shop instead.

What it asks your callers

  • What is the year, make and model?
  • What is it doing: a noise, a warning light, or will it not start?
  • Is the car drivable, or does it need a tow?
  • What is the best name and number for a callback?

You choose the questions on the setup call. These are where most auto repair shops start.

How it works

  1. 1
    Keep your number

    Set your phone to forward the calls you miss to your NightOwl line. It takes about five minutes and I walk you through it.

  2. 2
    It answers in one ring

    It greets callers with your business name, gets their name, number and problem, and marks real emergencies as urgent.

  3. 3
    You get the lead

    Each call reaches you by text and email within seconds and is logged to your Google Sheet. You call back and book the job.

NightOwl does not book appointments on your calendar, and it is not an emergency service: it never replaces 911.
