Auto repair shops who stopped losing leads

“Saturday afternoon a guy called with a blown tire on the freeway — we were all under lifts. LocalFlow texted him back instantly, he replied, and we had the tow dispatched before any competitor even knew he called.”

Mike R. Reyes Auto Service, Phoenix AZ

“We used to lose price-shoppers who called for a parts quote and never heard back. Now they get a text in seconds and half of them book the repair before we even call them back.”

Kelly D. Mainline Auto & Tire, Denver CO

“We service three commercial fleets in Atlanta. A missed call during a breakdown can ground a whole truck for a day. The 24/7 text-back paid for itself the first month — caught two fleet breakdowns after hours.”

James W. Crosstown Auto Repair, Atlanta GA

Auto repair shop FAQ

How much does it cost?

Two plans: a $1,000 one-time setup or $500/month. No hidden fees, no per-call charges, no per-SMS charges. You lock in the price when you sign up and it stays flat.

How long does setup take?

Most auto repair shops are live within 48 hours of signing up. We configure your number, your text-back template, and your CRM — you just answer the intake form and we do the rest.

What if a caller asks about parts availability or pricing?

The text-back lets them know a tech will follow up with specifics. You control the message — many shops include a line like “Reply with your year/make/model and we’ll have a quote ready when we call you back.” It captures the lead and pre-qualifies the job before you spend a minute on the phone.

Does it integrate with Mitchell, Tekmetric, ShopWare, or AutoFluent?

Yes. We connect to the major shop management platforms including Mitchell, Tekmetric, ShopWare, and AutoFluent. Every missed call and reply is logged automatically. If you run something custom, our onboarding team configures the integration during setup.

What does the text-back say about bay availability?

Whatever you want. You pick the wording during onboarding. Most shops use something like: “Thanks for calling — we’re on the floor right now. A service advisor will call you within 30 minutes to confirm availability and get you scheduled. Reply URGENT for same-day service.”

Will it respond to after-hours tow calls and weekend breakdowns?

Yes. The system runs 24/7/365. A breakdown call on Saturday night gets the same instant text-back as a missed call on a Tuesday afternoon — and the SMS flags urgent situations so you see them the moment you pick up your phone.
