The Missed Calls Cost You Customers
Insurance Adjusters Hang Up After 15 Seconds—Missing Critical Pre-Claim Inspections
When an insurance adjuster calls during a busy morning shift and gets no answer, they assume your shop isn’t available for immediate collision damage assessment. With 80% of auto body shop leads lost due to unanswered calls, adjusters often move on to competitors who can provide a same-day pre-claim inspection. This delays the repair timeline and risks losing high-value claims involving frame straightening, glass repair, or total loss assessment—especially when OEM vs. aftermarket parts decisions need to be made quickly.
Customers Abandon Inquiries After 2 Minutes—Missing Emergency Auto Body Service Opportunities
A driver involved in a fender bender calls after work hours seeking emergency auto body service. If your shop doesn’t answer within 90 seconds, 60% of them go to a competitor with a faster response. This is especially critical for urgent cases like bumper replacement, paintless dent repair (PDR) for hail damage, or glass repair—where timing affects insurance claim approval and customer satisfaction. Without real-time availability, your shop loses not just the job, but the trust of a customer who needs immediate support.
Staff Overwhelmed During Peak Hours—Missing 15+ Repair Estimates Daily
During the 12:00 PM–2:00 PM lunch window and 5:00 PM–7:00 PM after-work rush, your team is swamped with calls about collision damage assessment, insurance claim coordination, and refinish matching requests. With an average response time of 45 minutes, your shop misses up to 15 repair estimates per day—many of which are high-value jobs involving total loss assessment or complex frame straightening. This bottleneck directly impacts revenue and customer retention during your busiest hours.
