Got a call, customer asked for a quote (2007 335i). I think I even exhaled when I heard that but I went through the my general run down. Here is how the convo went,

 

 

Me: Sir what kind of problems are you experiencing with your vehicle?

 

Customer: I need some quotes on some work for my car.

 

Me: Did you have the problems diagnosed somewhere?

 

Customer: No but I know what I need.

 

Me: Ok what do you need to have serviced?

 

Customer: I THINK I need my valve cover gasket changed, I THINK I need my oil filter housing gasket changed, I THINK I need a belt and belt tensioner and I have the parts, I THINK I need a mechatronics sleeve and thrust arms. How much?

 

Me: Well sir if I can make a recommendation... since you did not get your vehicle diagnosed by a professional I would like to invite you to bring the vehicle to us and we can perform a visual inspection for you to determine what you do and don't need. I can then give you a proper estimate.

 

Customer: But my car doesn't start, I can't move it.

 

My brain goes into the UGH mode.

 

Me: Why doesn't the car start?

 

Customer: The belt jumped off.

 

Me: It sounds like you may have experienced a problem with the tensioner bolt bending and/or your tensioner failing. When the belt falls off on this particular engine you can do a lot of damage other than the obvious. belt material can eat into the front crank seal, damage the radiator and affect anything in the front of the car.

 

Customer: Oh really I didn't know.

 

Me: Yes so it would make the most sense for you to bring the car to us so can properly assess what you need.

 

Customer: I would have to tow it to you then and I don't know if I want to do that without getting a price.

 

Me: Well sir I am not charging you to inspect the car as of now.

 

Customer: I would have to pay for a tow then unless you offer a free tow. Do you do that?

 

Me: No sir unfortunately we do not however I am not charging you to inspect your car. For the cost of a tow you can have a professional look at and I can create an accurate estimate for you. If you don't like it you can always go somewhere else.

 

Customer: Well your not going to get my business unless I get a quote. I want to bring it to you because your specialist.

 

 

 

and the convo went on for another few minutes with nothing being resolved.

 

Odd ball people have been calling me all day and its driving me insane.

Haha, classic example of another CONSUMER on the phone, not any CUSTOMER or CLIENT of yours!

They just CONSUME your time, energy and give you headaches.

 

Another BMW owner who's too cheap to pay for a tow to get their car running. Even if you gave him a price, he would think it's too high anyways, don't worry about it!

Plus he said he wants to bring his own belt and tensioner (probably from the cheapest aftermarket parts store that looked it up wrong anyways).

Posted

Would it have not been quicker to just quote him out the service he wanted and let him go?

 

2 possible outcomes. 1.) He never shows up. 2.) He shows up, you inspect the vehicle before you ever get started, and present him with what you find, IF there is anything else it needs. If he gets upset that you tell him he needs more work, tell him fine, you will proceed without replacing the radiator or whatever, take his money for what you quoted him, and you'll see him back in a few days when he pops the motor. Show him pics of it leaking or whatever... Just the way I see it

The idea is you don't want to get into giving estimates over the phone. There will always be someone less expensive than you and if you don't take the time to educate the potential good customers on what sets you apart then you'll most likely not get the sale anyway. Of course my goal is not a quick job but rather the longevity of a customer relationship. I am fairly decent at turning people over because like you read a lot on here many people don't know what questions to ask other than price. Unfortunately I've been bombarded with time wasting bottom feeding consumers. These are the type that treat what we do as a commodity like buying milk at a store. They think any shop can fill their needs.

 

My ratio of people that I give quotes to the amount of times they actually come in is super low.

Posted

Could you not change your script to give out the quote, then follow up with what sets your apart from other shops (ASE's, warranty, rentals/loaners, better parts, fast turn around)? And also follow up with "I think I can get that price even lower when I look at it here in the shop. I've had a lot of cars lately that got quoted a bunch of parts they don't really need".

 

Just seems like instead of arguing with a potential customer, give em what they want, then tell them why your price may be higher than others.

I agree that quoting a job like that over the phone is a lose-lose situation. I think you did the right thing, I would have handled it the same. If the customer can't commit to a tow and has his own parts then no way is he going to be happy with the real price to fix it.

Once you give out a price that is all that's in the mind of the customer.

 

I do not argue with customers, these are consumers that obviously have an agenda.

Well done mspecperformance. Hold your ground. What other profession is expected to phone quote anything, site unseen? Giving those phone quotes damages the shop's and the industry's reputation. The only thing Mr. M.T. Pockets will remember is the lowest price he heard.

      It always amazes me when I hear about a technician who quits one repair shop to go work at another shop for less money. I know you have heard of this too, and you’ve probably asked yourself, “Can this be true? And Why?” The answer rests within the culture of the company. More specifically, the boss, manager, or a toxic work environment literally pushed the technician out the door.
      While money and benefits tend to attract people to a company, it won’t keep them there. When a technician begins to look over the fence for greener grass, that is usually a sign that something is wrong within the workplace. It also means that his or her heart is probably already gone. If the issue is not resolved, no amount of money will keep that technician for the long term. The heart is always the first to leave. The last thing that leaves is the technician’s toolbox.
      Shop owners: Focus more on employee retention than acquisition. This is not to say that you should not be constantly recruiting. You should. What it does means is that once you hire someone, your job isn’t over, that’s when it begins. Get to know your technicians. Build strong relationships. Have frequent one-on-ones. Engage in meaningful conversation. Find what truly motivates your technicians. You may be surprised that while money is a motivator, it’s usually not the prime motivator.
      One last thing; the cost of technician turnover can be financially devastating. It also affects shop morale. Do all you can to create a workplace where technicians feel they are respected, recognized, and know that their work contributes to the overall success of the company. This will lead to improved morale and team spirit. Remember, when you see a technician’s toolbox rolling out of the bay on its way to another shop, the heart was most likely gone long before that.

      Thanks to our Partners, NAPA TRACS, and Today's Class The "Great Correction" refers to a shift in the industry after a period of relative ease, likely due to pandemic related factors. The key concerns include a decrease in online searches for auto repair, rising costs, increased competition from dealerships, labor shortages, rapid advancements in technology (EVs, ADAS, AI), and the need to explore new revenue opportunities like key services, ADAS calibration, tires, and truck repairs. These issues suggest that the strategies that worked in the past may no longer be effective.

      Hello everyone,
       
       Currently we use RO Writer and Auto Vitals to manage our shop workflow. It works out very well overall, but I'm looking for a way to keep track of daily/weekly shop numbers in a clean and easy to read format. We found it difficult to get clear numbers in RO writer, and use the punch in/out feature in Auto Vitals for time keeping (which limits our reporting features in RO writer). I'm looking for other shop owners who use this combination to tell me they way they keep track of their daily/weekly numbers, such as technician hours worked/billed, comebacks, declined work, sold recommended (and develop a ratio from declined work/sold recommended).
       
      I'm working on a Google sheet now, but I'm looking for opinions on what you find easiest to read, while limiting entering too much information multiple times.
       
      Thank you for your comments in advance!
       
      Cheers!

      Welcome to 2025! As a new year begins, it’s time to start thinking about taxes. 
      For auto repair shop owners, understanding potential tax deductions is crucial for maximizing profitability. 
      This blog post will explore some common tax write-offs available to your business. It will help you keep more of your hard-earned money so you can achieve success!
       
      Understanding Deductible Expenses
      The IRS allows businesses to deduct “ordinary and necessary” expenses. 
      This includes costs that are common and helpful in the day-to-day operations of your auto repair shop.
       
      Cost of Goods Sold (COGS)
      This includes the direct costs associated with the parts you sell and install. 
      COGS covers everything from small items like spark plugs and brake pads to larger components such as engine parts and tires. 
      Accurate and detailed records of all purchases, including invoices and receipts, are essential when reporting these deductions.
      It’s critical to properly value your inventory at the beginning and end of the year because this directly affects your COGS and, consequently, your taxable income.
       
      Labor Costs
      Labor costs are another substantial deduction that you will want to claim.
      Labor costs encompass:
      Employee wages Employee salaries Employee benefits When examining your labor costs, be sure to report the gross wages paid to everyone, from mechanics and service writers to administrative staff. These are the people who keep your shop running like a well-oiled machine. 
      The employer-paid portions of Social Security, Medicare, and unemployment taxes are also deductible, along with various employee benefits like health insurance and retirement plan contributions.
       
      Operational Expenses 
      Operational expenses cover the day-to-day costs of running your business. 
      This category includes:
      Rent for your shop space (if you lease) Utilities such as electricity, water, and gas The maintenance and repair fees of your shop equipment and facilities Insurance for business liability, property, and company vehicles Expenses related to promoting your business, such as online advertising, print ads, and local sponsorships, fall under deductible advertising and marketing costs, which are also operational expenses.
      You can even deduct the fees paid to professionals and service providers such as accountants, lawyers, and other consultants for business-related services.
       
      Depreciation 
      Depreciation is often an overlooked deductible, but it is important in maximizing your profit, nonetheless, because it allows you to deduct the cost of long-term assets over their useful life. 
      Depreciation deductions apply to equipment such as lifts, diagnostic tools, and other essential items used in your shop. 
      If you have company vehicles that are used solely for business purposes, such as a tow truck, you can also deduct their depreciation.
       
      Other Deductions 
      COGS, labor costs, operational expenses, and depreciation are the core categories, but that doesn’t mean other dedications don’t apply. 
      Here are a few more auto shop costs to consider claiming:
      Employee training  Continuing education Business travel for industry conferences or training Unpaid invoices from customers (you may be able to deduct the unpaid amount as a bad debt!)
      And always remember. . . 
      Meticulous record-keeping is absolutely essential for substantiating your deductions. 
      Keep all invoices, receipts, and other relevant documentation organized. An online accounting system such as Quickbooks Online can help! 
      Tax laws can be complex, so consulting with a professional is highly recommended. They can provide personalized advice and ensure you’re taking advantage of all applicable deductions. 
      Remember: tax laws can change, so stay informed about any updates that may affect your business so you can stay on the right track to growth! 
      Proper planning and education will help you significantly reduce your tax liability and improve your bottom line year after year!
