From cradle to grave, I engage with customers to discern priority versus safety concerns. If such is a simple task, such as an oil change, I verify work being approved and relay when to expect it to be finished. If shuttle service is required, escort to my driver's station and set expectations for when a follow-up call should be received.After the initial inspection of a vehicle, I will verify there are parts available for the service & prioritize what should be done vs what could be done - and base it off the original concern of the customer. This happens within 10 minutes of the completion of the inspection or diagnosis.Once I have touched base with the customer, I will guarantee a time-frame for the expected completion time, price & availability of approved parts or services, and appropriate figures that will be expected on the final repair order for authorization. Upon communicating with the customer, technicians & parts personnel are informed of decisions made. Follow-up is required to ensure the customer's payment is based on what promises were made, for example, if I guaranteed a discount based on coupons that may be available.Delivery is equally important, where I confirm services completed. If all is well, payment is collected and the customer is delivered their keys and a reminder for future services is placed.
