eApproval
Modernize your service approval process with mobile capabilities and convenience.
The vehicle is on the lift taking up a bay. The technician does a great inspection and diagnoses three issues. The advisor gets pricing around and calls the customer for approval. Voicemail. Another call, another voicemail. The customer calls back at 3:30 and approves the work, and now she is upset the vehicle won’t be ready today.
With eApproval, you meet consumers where they are with a user-friendly, electronic approval system that is educational, speeds up the entire process, and increases service sales. After your multipoint inspection, send customers a link to view their vehicle’s health status and recommended work with exact pricing and descriptions for each service, as well as pictures and videos showing needed repairs. This educates the customer and makes it easy for you to gain approval for work quickly and close out that RO.
