Auto repair
How much are missed calls costing your auto shop?
Drag the sliders to your numbers and see the repairs — and revenue — slipping away each month when a call to your shop goes unanswered. No signup. Then call the live demo line and hear the receptionist that catches them.
That’s roughly 0 missed calls a month — and about $0/year.
EchoAnswers answers every one of them for a flat $99/month.
Call the demo · +1 (928) 399-7870When something’s wrong with the car, drivers call around until someone answers — and your team is under a hood or in the bay, not by the phone. Shops routinely miss a quarter of their calls, and each one is a repair or a new customer headed to the shop down the street.
How the estimate works
We keep the math simple and show every assumption so you can adjust it to your business:
- Missed calls per month = calls per week × the share you miss × about 4.3 weeks.
- Lost customers = those missed calls × the share that would have become a customer (your close rate).
- Lost revenue = lost customers × your average job value.
It’s deliberately conservative: it only counts callers who would have booked, not every ring. Change any number above and the estimate updates instantly. This is a sizing tool, not a guarantee.
What it would take to stop the leak
You don’t need to hire a receptionist or answer the phone at midnight. EchoAnswers picks up every call you can’t — after hours, on a job, or when the line’s busy — books appointments, answers your common questions, and emails you a summary of each call. It works on the number you already have through call forwarding, with nothing to install.
It’s one flat price: $99/month, 600 call minutes included, then $0.50 per additional minute, itemized on every invoice. No setup fees, no contracts, 30-day money-back guarantee, and you keep your own number.
Frequently asked questions
Why do auto shops miss so many calls?
The team is in the bay with greasy hands and the front desk is slammed. A driver who needs a tow or a same-day repair won’t wait on hold — they call the next shop on the list.
What is one missed call worth to a repair shop?
A diagnostic plus the repair behind it — often hundreds of dollars, and a customer who could come back for years. Use your own average ticket in the calculator above.
