## Sound familiar? What garages & service teams in Qatar tell us

> Customers keep asking for updates and nobody knows who has the job.

Each customer is assigned to one advisor, with internal notes from the workshop the customer never sees.

> We send quotes and the customer goes quiet.

Jobs sit on a pipeline from quote to approved to done. Waiting quotes are flagged hot.

> We are closed on Sunday, but customers still message.

An away message goes out outside your hours, and the chat waits at the top on Monday.

*Every enquiry is a customer deciding where to spend. Don’t let yours wait.*
