With text messaging, you can enhance your auto repair shop marketing efforts and engage with your customers using their preferred method of communication.  We make it super easy – and even better, text messaging is included with your SocialCRM service at no additional cost.

  • A pre-visit appointment reminder text will be sent once a scheduled appointment is detected in Manager SE and will be sent one day in advance of the scheduled appointment date.
  • An automated post-visit thank-you text will be sent after a closed invoice is detected in the Manager™ SE shop management system. The message includes an invitation and link to share their great experience at your shop with others by writing a review.

Text Response: Every time a customer responds to a text message from your shop, you receive an email notification and can respond back directly from your SocialCRM dashboard to keep the communication flowing in a timely manner.

The latest SocialCRM release also includes:

Updated Reporting Dashboard
