Missed mobile callers texted back
Within seconds a mobile caller gets a text in your name asking what they need. You get the conversation and details on your phone for follow-up.
It does not just text back.It captures the enquiry and can book when your calendar is connected.
LocalWins asks what the caller needs and sends the appointment enquiry to your team. Once we have connected your booking calendar and set your rules, it can offer available slots and confirm a booking. Until then it can share your online booking link if you have one.
Hi, it's Hilltop Motors. Sorry we missed you, we are under a car. What do you need?
MOT and a service, how much and when can you do it?
What is the registration and make, and what is your postcode?
Golf, LV19 XYZ. LS1 4DY.
Thanks. I've passed the MOT and service enquiry to Hilltop Motors for follow-up.
Example: the enquiry reaches the business for follow-up.
What it actually fixes
The phone always rings at the worst moment
You cannot stop a job to answer, and they will not ring twice. Whoever picks up gets the MOT and everything it turns into.
Price and availability, straight away
If you provide prices, LocalWins can share them. It can also share your online booking link if you have one; otherwise it captures the enquiry for you.
Last year's MOTs are this year's work
Every car you tested twelve months ago is due again, and almost nobody texts them. We do, automatically, from your number.
MOT reminders that bring the car back
Set up a reminder when a customer's next MOT is due. They can use your online booking link if you have one.

Questions garages and MOT centres ask us
Are my customers kept private to my garage?
Always. Every caller, enquiry and booking is yours and stays in your own customer list. We only ever text them in your garage's name, about your garage, and their details are never shared with or offered to anyone else.
Will it text my regulars or people I know?
Only in your name, and only about booking with you. Callers who tell us they are not ringing to book are left alone, and you can mark anyone as personal so they never get a text from us at all.
Can LocalWins bring me new customers as well?
Add a website to Growth for £50 a month. It is a website we build, host and look after for you, written for people searching for a garage near you. Enquiries from your website come straight to your business. LocalWins can share your online booking link if you have one.
Can it arrange appointments for us?
Yes, once we connect your booking calendar and set your services, availability and approval rules. LocalWins can then offer available slots and confirm appointments. Until setup is complete, it captures the enquiry for your team or shares your online booking link.
Do I have to change my phone number?
No. You keep your number and your phone. When you go live, we set up a second number. You divert missed calls to it with a code you dial once.
