Classic Car Restoration
Incoming Call...
Car Owner

✓ Consultation Booked • 1967 Mustang
You're losing dream projects every day your phone goes unanswered. Collectors call after hours, consultations get missed, and your team can't keep up with inquiries while working on restorations. There's a better way.
A collector discovers your work at 9 PM, calls to discuss restoring their '67 Mustang, and gets voicemail. By the time you check messages in the morning, they've already contacted three other shops who answered immediately.
While you're under the hood diagnosing an engine, five calls come in. Project inquiries, progress updates, parts questions—you can't be in the bay and on the phone at once. Leads get frustrated waiting, and you lose high-value projects.
You clear your schedule, prepare the estimate paperwork, and wait. They don't show. You send one follow-up text that gets ignored. That's it—they're gone. No second chance, no recovery, just wasted time and another empty bay slot.

Alex doesn't have to wait for business hours or fill out forms. She just asks the question, and it's handled.
