Never miss a lead, fill the service diary.

Deals are won on speed and follow-up. We put AI on enquiries, bookings and reminders so sales and service both stay full.

In a dealership, the lead that gets a reply first usually wins the sale. But between the showroom floor, the phone, and a full service bay, online enquiries sit unanswered for hours and warm prospects quietly go elsewhere.

The same pressure hits the workshop. Service advisors are chasing bookings, sending reminder texts manually, and fielding the same questions about MOT slots and parts availability on repeat. Fettle puts AI agents to work on all of it, so your team can focus on the customers in front of them.

Customer Query Agent

In practice

What changes, with examples.

Online enquiry response
Today

A customer submits a part-exchange enquiry at 8pm and waits until the next morning for someone to reply, by which time they have already booked a test drive elsewhere.

With Fettle

The Lead Response Agent picks up the enquiry instantly, confirms the part-exchange details, and books the test drive into the sales calendar before your team arrives the next morning.

Warm lead follow-up
Today

A salesperson means to chase the customer who came in to look at a nearly-new Transit but gets pulled onto the forecourt and the lead sits cold in the CRM for a week.

With Fettle

The Follow-up Agent sends a timely, personalised message on a set schedule, keeps the conversation warm, and flags the lead back to the salesperson only when the customer is ready to talk.

Service booking and reminders
Today

The service receptionist calls customers to confirm their MOT or service slot the day before, leaving voicemails for half of them and still seeing no-shows on the day.

With Fettle

The Service Booking Agent fills open slots automatically and sends the right reminders at the right time, so the workshop diary stays full and no-shows drop without anyone picking up the phone.

Car dealerships · a week with Fettle

A week at a busy multi-site dealer group

By Monday morning, the Lead Response Agent had already replied to a handful of weekend enquiries, answered stock availability questions, and added two test drive bookings to the sales team's diaries. Mid-week, the Follow-up Agent nudged three customers who had visited the previous week but not committed, and one came back in to sign. The service team noticed fewer gaps in the workshop rota as the Service Booking Agent filled a run of short-notice slots and chased confirmations overnight. By Friday the sales manager spent the morning on live customers rather than chasing old leads, which is exactly how the week should look.

Questions car dealerships ask

We already use a CRM. Will Fettle's AI work alongside it or replace it?

+
Fettle's agents work alongside your existing CRM and DMS, reading and updating records rather than replacing the tools your team already knows. During the Assessment we look at exactly what you use and make sure anything we recommend fits your current setup.

Our customers expect to speak to a person. Will AI put them off?

+
The agents handle the fast, repetitive contact that customers actually want resolved quickly, things like confirming a booking or answering a question about a specific model, and hand off to your team the moment a conversation needs a human touch.

How quickly can this be up and running on our enquiry channels?

+
After the Assessment, the done-for-you service means Fettle sets everything up and runs it for you, so there is no lengthy IT project and your team does not need to learn anything new before leads start getting answered.
