Frequently asked questions
What KPIs does the auto repair kit track?
The kit includes a Weekly Manager Scorecard, phone benchmark pages, and owner-note benchmarks covering the metrics that matter most at the front counter: calls answered live, appointment conversion, close rate, ARO targets, declined-work follow-up activity, callback promises kept, and related service-advisor performance markers.
Does this cover DVI (Digital Vehicle Inspection) communication?
Yes. The kit includes a dedicated DVI follow-up call script, estimate-presentation guidance using the Safety -> Should Do -> Maintenance framework, and coaching around translating tech findings into plain customer language.
Can I customize the scripts for my auto repair shop?
Yes. The system includes a Shop Plug-In Sheet, policy fields, logs, and blank tracking pages so you can adapt the scripts and workflows to your shop name, pricing approach, warranty terms, authorization method, DVI process, and management system.
What format are the service advisor training files in?
The current Auto Repair kit is presented as a styled PDF digital download designed for screen use or front-counter printing.
Does this include declined work follow-up?
Yes. Declined Work Recovery is a dedicated system in the kit, with follow-up guidance, timing logic, tracking structure, and conversation support for one of the biggest revenue leaks in independent shops.
How is this different from generic customer service training?
Generic training does not cover repair-order intake, estimate presentation, DVI follow-up, workflow-board habits, repair authorization, declined work recovery, or advisor-tech coordination. This kit is built from real auto repair shop workflows, not adapted from call-center training.
Can I use this for multiple service advisors?
It's built as an internal training system for your shop. If you need broader rights or multi-location coverage, check the listing details before purchase.
