Why Use Recommendations
Adding recommendations in an automotive shop is a win-win for both customers and the business. By identifying and suggesting necessary repairs or preventive maintenance, shops can increase revenue opportunities while helping customers avoid costly breakdowns in the future. Recommendations boost average ticket size and ensure technicians stay productive, all while enhancing customer trust and satisfaction.
