BETTER INFORMATION AT DROP-OFF

Stop diagnosing a vague message thread.

A message saying ‘the car makes a noise’ is not enough to prepare. A generic booking secures time but may not capture the context needed to assign the right inspection.

Common problems this flow replaces

  • Missing make, model, year or mileage
  • Symptoms described differently to every team member
  • Photos and warning-light details lost in chat
  • Customers booking the wrong type or length of appointment

Structured vehicle intake

Ask consistent questions about the vehicle, symptoms, recent work and driving conditions.

Route the right next step

Use a quote or diagnostic request when the job needs review; use booking for clearly defined services.

Real inspection availability

Offer valid times based on service duration, workshop hours, breaks and existing appointments.

One workshop request

Keep customer contact, vehicle answers, uploaded images and appointment context together.

ONE CUSTOMER JOURNEY

From first question to confirmed appointment.

Customers complete one clear flow. Your team receives one organized request.

01

Identify the vehicle

The customer shares vehicle and mileage details in a consistent format.

02

Describe the concern

Symptoms, warning lights, timing and photos give the workshop useful context.

03

Choose the next step

Defined services can offer a time; uncertain work can remain a review or quote request.

04

Review and respond

The team sees the complete request in Inbox and follows up on WhatsApp when clarification is needed.

BUILT AROUND YOUR SERVICES

Use it for the appointments you already offer.

Start with one service, then create a customer path for every service that needs different questions or availability.

AFTER THEY SUBMIT

Every detail stays attached to the customer request.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Know what customers will experience.

Can customers describe a vehicle problem before booking?+

Yes. Ask for the make, model, year, mileage, warning lights, symptoms, when the issue occurs and supporting photos before the workshop reviews the request.

Can I separate quote requests from bookable services?+

Yes. Use a detailed form for work that needs diagnosis or an estimate, and a booking page for defined services such as inspections, oil changes or tyre fitting.

Does SlotForm diagnose faults or calculate repair estimates?+

No. SlotForm collects and organizes customer-supplied information. Your workshop remains responsible for inspection, diagnosis, pricing and approval.

Can appointment details and vehicle information stay together?+

Yes. When intake and booking are used in the same customer journey, the submitted vehicle context and appointment arrive as one organized request.
