A customer born in 2002 is not going to ring you back.

Igor from Igor Barr Automotive makes a point that is hard to argue with. A person born in 2002 is driving a car now, and they respond the way they want to respond, which is generally not by phone.

His fix is not working weekends. The Podium and Workshop Software integration keeps the conversation going, and when he has twenty spare minutes he approves the bookings and gets on with his day.

Two years ago this trade did not talk about customer experience at all.

Ed from Podium, being honest about where the trade was not long ago. Even the workshops that saw themselves as proper competitors to the dealerships were, in his words, pretty ad hoc about it.

What changed is what customers expect. They want information and they want it now. He says the Podium and Workshop Software partnership was built to move that along, and that hundreds of workshops across Australia have taken a deliberate approach to it since.

You can track a pizza across town. You cannot track your own car.

Lesley from the AAAA, on why customers get twitchy while their car is in. She can watch a pizza move across a map. She cannot see anything at all about the car she has just handed over, and the car is worth rather more than the pizza.

You usually find out whether a job made money after you have invoiced it.

Which is the wrong order. In this clip the mechanic's real time goes onto the job, so every cost is accounted for, and then the analysis gets opened before the invoice is sent. That is the moment to notice the charge time was optimistic, not next quarter.

Time can be typed in or come straight from clock on, clock off.

The first thing Workshop Web asks you is the thing that matters most.

When you turn on Workshop Web it asks what type of business you are before anything else. That choice goes into your web address, so an auto electrician looks like an auto electrician to a search engine, whether the person searching is in Canberra, London or Pretoria.

The rest of the setup is a couple of clicks.

Price isn’t why customers leave 💸 It’s everything around it.

Data shows that fewer than 1 in 5 customers would actually switch workshops for a $200 discount on an $800 job (Source: AAAA).

In other words, customer experience is what actually keeps existing customers coming back, not your price list.

So if your regulars are drifting, it’s worth looking at the estimate, the updates, the pickup…

Every workshop has that moment. The job stops while someone goes hunting for a spec.

It never shows up on the job card, but it comes straight off your billable hours.

WorkshopData is built into Workshop Software, so your techs find the technical info inside the job they're already working on. Have a look at how it works.
