What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, we were drowning in follow-up emails after storm season hits with a flood of hail-damaged sedans and trucks. Their custom automation now handles personalized outreach for paintless dent repair (PDR) clients, saving us about 12 hours a week. We've booked 15 more jobs this quarter just from automated reminders for frame checks—it's like having an extra marketer on staff without the payroll hit."
Mike Rodriguez
Owner, Precision Auto Body Shop in Denver, CO
"I run a small shop and hated juggling social posts for fleet services like timely oil changes and tire rotations. The system they built integrates with our scheduling software, sending targeted offers to repeat customers for alignment services. In three months, our response rate jumped from 5% to 28% on brake job promotions, and we're finally seeing ROI on marketing without constant tweaks during peak fleet contract renewals."
Sarah Jenkins
Operations Manager, Elite Collision and Fleet Repair in Atlanta, GA
"Manual lead tracking was killing our efficiency during busy insurance claim periods with surges in rear-end collision quotes. AIQ's setup automated everything from follow-ups on windshield replacements to custom paint job promotions for restored classics. We cut costs by $8,000 last year on outsourced marketing for insurer DRP bids, and our team's focused solely on repairs now—total game-changer for scaling operations."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this automation integrate with my existing shop software?
We start by auditing your current tools, like your repair estimating system or CRM, then build custom APIs for two-way data flow. For instance, when a new collision job is logged, our AI automatically triggers a follow-up email to the client with repair progress updates. This eliminates manual entry, reducing errors by 90% and ensuring your marketing efforts align perfectly with shop operations. Unlike plug-and-play tools, our solution is coded to handle automotive-specific data like VIN tracking or insurer claim IDs, providing a unified view that boosts efficiency without disrupting your workflow.
What kind of time savings can an auto body shop expect?
Shops typically reclaim 15-20 hours per week from manual tasks like chasing leads or crafting emails for dent removal specials. Consider a mid-sized operation handling 50 estimates monthly—our automation handles segmentation and sending, cutting response time from 48 hours to under 5 minutes. This translates to a 35% productivity boost, allowing your team to focus on high-value activities like quoting complex frame jobs. We've seen ROI materialize in 60 days, with one client reporting $12,000 in additional revenue from automated campaigns alone, all while slashing marketing overhead.
Is this suitable for a small auto body shop with limited tech resources?
Absolutely—our solutions are designed for SMBs like yours, with 10-50 employees and $1M-$10M revenue. We handle the heavy lifting: from initial setup to user-friendly dashboards that don't require IT expertise. For example, a three-bay shop we worked with automated outreach for hail damage repairs using simple web access, no coding needed on their end. Training takes just one session, and our support ensures smooth adoption. This custom approach avoids the complexity of enterprise tools, delivering tailored efficiency gains without overwhelming your team.
How do you ensure campaigns are personalized for automotive clients?
Our AI analyzes your customer data—past services, vehicle types, and interaction history—to generate hyper-relevant content. If a client had a fender bender fixed last year, it crafts an email offering a discount on alignment checks, referencing their specific make and model. This one-to-one approach lifts open rates by 40% over generic blasts. We build it into your exact workflow, integrating with tools like your parts inventory to suggest timely offers, ensuring every touchpoint feels custom and drives repeat business in the competitive auto repair space.
What metrics will I track to measure ROI?
We create bespoke dashboards focused on automotive KPIs: lead conversion from campaigns (e.g., 25% uplift in booking rates for paint jobs), cost per acquisition for new collision clients, and overall time saved (tracked in hours against benchmarks like 20% manual reduction). For a typical shop, this means monitoring how automated emails for fleet maintenance yield $5,000 monthly in upsell revenue. Our system provides real-time insights, quarterly reports, and A/B testing to optimize, proving 4x ROI within the first year through tangible efficiency and revenue metrics.
Can this handle compliance with insurance marketing rules?
Yes, we embed compliance from the ground up, adhering to regulations like TCPA for SMS and CAN-SPAM for emails, tailored to automotive nuances such as insurer disclosure requirements. Our AI flags sensitive data, like claim details, ensuring campaigns only send approved content. For instance, promotions for body filler services include opt-out mechanisms and track consent logs automatically. This risk-free setup has helped shops avoid fines while maintaining trust with clients and partners, all integrated seamlessly into your custom automation without extra hassle.
