Sorry we missed your call. We were out in the workshop. Do you need a repair quote? Send us a few photos of the damage and we'll get straight back to you. 2:48 PM
Yes please, someone's scraped my rear bumper in a car park 2:51 PM
Got them, thanks. One of the team will call you back shortly with a quote. 2:52 PM

This is what your customer sees, 60 seconds after the call you couldn't answer.

Most Shops

Calls that go unanswered.

A customer rings whilst you're under a car. They don't leave a message. By the time you call back, they've already booked somewhere else.

Leads that go cold before you've even seen them.

Most customers won't try twice. If the phone isn't answered, they move onto the next shop. That's not a customer service problem, it's a revenue problem. And it happens every single day.

How It Works

Set up in a day. Working before the week is out.

We set up your call forward

We give you a dedicated AutoCore number. Your existing business phone automatically forwards any unanswered call to it. Takes five minutes.

The customer hears back instantly

When a call goes unanswered, the customer gets a WhatsApp message within 60 seconds. It's branded to your shop, asks if they need a quote, and prompts them to send their details and photos. They think you're on it. Because you are.

You call back informed

You get a notification the moment they reply - their name, number, what they need, photos included. You're not calling cold. You're calling someone who already wants a quote, with everything in front of you before you dial.

The Numbers

Three missed calls a week. Over £45,000 a year.

Most independent bodyshops miss between 3 and 6 inbound enquiries every week. Calls that go unanswered while the team is on the ramp or dealing with a customer.

At a conservative £300 average for private pay work, that's between £45,000 and £90,000 in unbooked revenue walking out the door every year.

AutoCore costs £250 a month. The maths is simple.

Is This For You?

We work with one type of business.

This is built for you if:

  • You run a bodyshop with 3–10 bays
  • You're missing calls because your team is on the floor where they should be
  • You want more private pay work without chasing it yourself
  • You want someone to handle it, not software to learn

This probably isn't for you if:

  • You're part of a franchise or large group with a dedicated reception team
  • You already have a system that catches every inbound enquiry
  • You want to manage it yourself

Common Questions

Straight answers.

No. You just set up a call forward on your existing business number. Your phone provider can do this in minutes, or we'll walk you through it. Nothing else changes.

You're live within 5 working days of our first call.

We monitor everything. If something breaks, we fix it. You message us directly.

No. Monthly rolling. Cancel with 30 days' notice.
