Auto shop texting, frequently asked
Email and social media are free — can’t I just use those?
They’re not as free as they seem. Email open rates lag well behind text, and social platforms don’t reliably put your posts in front of customers (or charge to). Texting reaches people directly.
Will I get a local phone number?
Yes. With a paid account you choose your number, including one in your local area code so customers recognize you.
Can I send inspection photos?
Yes. Send MMS messages with photos from your multi-point inspection so customers can see and approve work fast.
Does it integrate with my service tools?
Yes. TextSpot connects to hundreds of apps through Zapier, including service and inspection software, for a seamless workflow.
