  1. Hey all -- My team is getting ready to release a tool that reaches out to your customers automatically to ask for a review. Positive feedback returns a prompt to review on Google and Yelp. Negative feedback is caught and an autoresponder asks them to contact you to discuss. It's a great way to boost your online reputation without much effort. It works standalone and can also integrate with your shop management software. When you close a ticket it can automatically trigger the outreach cycle. As an ASO member you can use it for free for 3 months. No credit card required. Check it out. Feature requests and feedback always welcome -- RepCaster.com Use invite code ASO2023
  2. Looking to gain some insight from your experience as a shop owner on repair financing, payments, and some miscellaneous marketing topics. About 10 minutes to complete. I have about a dozen $25 Amazon gift cards as a token of appreciation for your time. Shops in NJ, NY, and CT get preference. Please direct message me if you’d like to participate. Thanks in advance everyone.
  3. Interested to hear how you like these systems and also how you're using third party integrations and/or Zapier as a bridge to external systems. We have an integration with Shop-Ware in development and are scoping an integration with Shopmonkey. At present our Buy Now Pay Later product allows you to generate an invoice with a web form. After we onboard the customer and wire payment to you the next day, you have to manually mark the RO as paid. An integration eliminates most of the manual work. You just select an RO and we can do the rest behind the scenes -- pull in relevant customer and job info, notify the customer, and then mark the RO as paid when funds transfer to you is complete. Looking for any insight or feedback from folks on how easy (or difficult) your experience has been bridging your SMS with external systems, and if there are specific things that would make these integrations work more smoothly for you.
  4. People are definitely investing more in their current vehicle these days when previously they might have just traded for something newer. And a lot of these customers are not necessarily the ones who traditionally lean on financing. Guaranteed you'll sell more jobs, faster, and with a larger average purchase value when a customer can split a bill into multiple payments as easy as settling with a credit card. Would love to talk to shops in the Northeast about how we can help with that -- especially those in the tri-state area. Drop me a DM!
  5. Thanks for the warm welcome everyone! What we do is along the lines of Easy Pay, mentioned above. BNPL really is coming into its own as a bridge between cash upfront and the usual financing based on revolving credit. Typically the payoff period is shorter. And it really is more a "time-shifting" option for those who can't or don't want to carry a credit card balance. Also, a lot of consumers have grown accustomed to using BNPL for online purchases, and we see very strong indications of demand for similar payment options at brick-and-mortar businesses. I'd be curious to hear how much financing is moving the needle these days on those large tickets -- both in volume and total purchase value.
  6. I just joined as a sponsoring member to inquire the same. We're suddenly in a different world today after decades of low inflation. Things became way more expensive overnight. Even those of us with good financial discipline are finding it harder to cover unexpected expenses. What kind of interest/demand are shops seeing from customers for financing, installment loans, etc? If you offer financing, what have you liked/disliked about the process and experience? Our profile is not setup yet, but in short, my company Beep offers "Buy Now, Pay Later" (BNPL) Point-of-Sale financing. Kind of like what has become very popular for e-commerce but we focus on brick-and-mortar businesses.
