What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Quantifiable Gains Tailored to Your Shop
Slash Lead Nurturing Time by 15 Hours Weekly
Slash Lead Nurturing Time by 15 Hours Weekly: Manual follow-ups on hail damage estimate requests from adjusters eat up your team's day. Our system automates personalized drip campaigns for PDR leads, boosting response rates by 45% and freeing technicians for bay work—proven to save mid-sized auto body shops $8,000 quarterly in overtime labor costs, with full implementation in under 4 weeks.
Achieve 3x ROI on Marketing Spend
Achieve 3x ROI on Marketing Spend: Generic ads for collision and frame services yield low conversions. We build predictive models scoring leads from insurance portals, prioritizing high-value unibody repair jobs. Shops see 30% higher close rates on $10K monthly ad budgets, turning them into $30K in booked frame alignments and estimates within 90 days.
Boost Productivity with Automated Appointment Reminders
Boost Productivity with Automated Appointment Reminders: No-shows for paintless dent repairs and color matching jobs cost you slots. Our custom workflows send targeted SMS and email sequences integrated with your shop management software, reducing cancellations by 25% and filling lift bays consistently. This efficiency adds 20 extra collision jobs per month, equating to $15,000 in additional revenue for high-volume operations.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, we were drowning in follow-up emails for hail-damaged roof panel quotes from insurance referrals—lost out on major fleet work. Their automation handled the nurturing, and within two months, our booked PDR slots increased by 35%. Now we have time to focus on quality repairs instead of admin chaos."
Mike Reynolds
Owner, Precision Auto Body Shop in Denver, CO
"I was doubtful about AI for our two-bay shop, but the lead scoring for scratch and rocker panel repair inquiries transformed our pipeline. We halved manual outbound calls and boosted repeat business by 28% last quarter through automated follow-ups. No more wasting time on low-intent leads from walk-ins."
Sarah Patel
Operations Manager, Elite Collision Center in Atlanta, GA
"Managing hail season leads manually was a nightmare—endless Excel tracking of adjuster inquiries. AIQ integrated with our CRM to send tailored nurture sequences for dent cluster repairs. We saved 12 hours weekly, and conversions from inquiries to actual jobs reached 40% during peak spring storms last year."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this automation handle seasonal fluctuations in auto body work?
Our custom systems are built to adapt to your shop's cycles, like ramping up hail damage lead campaigns in spring. We use AI forecasting to predict busy periods based on historical data from your CRM, automatically adjusting nurture sequences and ad triggers. For instance, during winter, it prioritizes rust repair reminders. This ensures consistent lead flow without manual tweaks, saving you 10-15 hours weekly. We've seen shops maintain 25% higher bookings year-round. Implementation starts with mapping your peak seasons, then testing in a pilot phase before full rollout.
What integrations work with my existing shop management tools?
We specialize in deep, two-way integrations with platforms like Shop-Ware, Mitchell, or Alldata, syncing repair estimates, customer details, and appointment data in real-time. No more duplicate entries for collision jobs. If you're using QuickBooks for invoicing, we automate follow-up triggers post-payment. Our approach avoids brittle connections—everything's custom-coded for reliability. During discovery, we map your exact stack, ensuring 100% compatibility. Shops report 40% faster data flow, reducing errors in insurance claim processing.
How quickly can I see ROI from this marketing automation?
Most auto body shops see measurable gains within 4-6 weeks, with full ROI hitting 3x by quarter's end. We focus on quick wins like automating estimate follow-ups, which alone can boost conversions by 30%. Track metrics via your custom dashboard: lead-to-booking rates and cost per acquisition. For a mid-sized shop, that's often $15K in recovered revenue from better hail lead nurturing. We include a 90-day optimization period to fine-tune, ensuring alignment with your efficiency goals—no vague promises, just data-driven results.
Is this suitable for a small auto body shop with limited tech staff?
Absolutely—designed for SMBs like yours with 5-20 employees. We handle the heavy lifting: building, deploying, and training your team in under a day. No need for in-house coders; the system runs autonomously, like an always-on service advisor. For example, it auto-sends personalized quotes for bumper repairs without your input. Post-launch, we provide simple dashboards and optional support. Shops with minimal tech report 20-hour weekly savings, letting owners focus on bay management rather than emails.
How do you ensure compliance with automotive industry regulations?
Compliance is core—we build in safeguards for data privacy under laws like CCPA, plus automotive-specific rules for insurance interactions. Your system anonymizes sensitive repair details and logs all customer consents for marketing outreach. Unlike generic tools, ours is audited for secure handling of claim inquiries. We start with a compliance review during discovery, embedding protocols like opt-out automation for dent repair campaigns. Clients in regulated spaces, like those dealing with fleet repairs, praise the peace of mind—no fines or breaches.
Can I own and modify the automation after it's built?
Yes, full ownership from day one—no subscriptions or vendor lock-in. You receive the source code, documentation, and hosting setup, empowering your team or future hires to tweak it. Want to add a new sequence for electric vehicle body work? Our handover includes guides for safe modifications. This shifts you from renting tools to owning a strategic asset, scalable as your shop grows. We've helped 30+ automotive businesses transition, reporting 50% lower long-term costs compared to SaaS stacks.
