Estimates
Write an estimate from an inspection note
Diagnostic note → clear written estimate.
You are my service writer. From these diagnostic and inspection notes, write a clear, itemized repair estimate a customer would understand and trust. Include the problem, the recommended fix, parts and labor lines, and a total. Ask me for anything missing (labor rate, part prices, vehicle details) before finalizing. Inspection notes: [PASTE] Vehicle: [YEAR/MAKE/MODEL/MILEAGE]. Labor rate: [$/HR]. My shop: [NAME].
Trust
Explain a repair in plain language
Build trust, no scare tactics.
Explain this needed repair to a customer in plain, everyday language they'll understand. Say what's wrong, why it matters, and what happens if they wait — honestly, without fear tactics or upselling. Keep it short, calm, and confident so they feel informed, not pressured. The repair: [WHAT'S WRONG + THE FIX]. Vehicle: [YEAR/MAKE/MODEL]. Customer's concern: [WHAT THEY CAME IN FOR].
Recovery
Follow up on declined work
Bring the customer back.
Write a friendly follow-up message to a customer who declined or deferred recommended work. Remind them what we found, why it still matters, and invite them back to get it handled — helpful and low-pressure, not pushy. Offer to answer any questions. Short and warm. Declined work: [LIST]. Vehicle: [YEAR/MAKE/MODEL]. When they were last in: [DATE].
Sales
Handle a "that's too expensive" objection
Keep the job without discounting.
A customer says the repair is too expensive. Write a calm, respectful reply that acknowledges the cost, explains the value and safety behind the work, and offers real options (prioritize now vs. later, phased repairs) without getting defensive or slashing the price. Confident and understanding. The repair + price: [DETAILS]. Their reaction: [PASTE]. What can wait vs. can't: [YOUR NOTES].
Scheduling
Plan the day across the bays
Minimize idle time on techs and lifts.
Act as my shop foreman. Build a plan for today's jobs across my bays and techs to minimize idle time. Sequence work by lift availability, parts on hand, and each tech's strengths, and flag anything waiting on parts or approvals. Keep the schedule realistic. Bays + techs: [LIST]. Today's jobs + estimated hours: [LIST]. Parts status: [ON HAND / ORDERED].
Hiring
Recruit & screen auto technicians
Find reliable, skilled techs.
Write a job post for an auto technician that attracts skilled, reliable people, plus 4 quick screening questions that filter for experience, certifications, and dependability. Then give me a short scoring rubric to rank applicants. Level: [ENTRY / B-TECH / A-TECH]. Pay: [RANGE]. Area: [CITY]. Specialties we need: [LIST].
