Missed Appointment & No-Show Recovery for Insurance Direct Repair Program Shops

{"faqs":[{"answer":"Yes. Our Missed Appointment & No-Show Recovery campaign segments your list by recency — 30 days, 6 months, 12+ months — so even older no-shows get an appropriate reason to reconnect. You approve the message and offer first, then our team runs the outreach in your shop's name and routes replies into your booking process.","question":"Can you recover DRP customers who missed a drop-off or estimate appointment months ago?"},{"answer":"There's nothing to buy or learn. We work from your existing CRM, spreadsheet, or point-of-sale list exactly as it is. Our team handles the calls, texts, and emails; you approve the campaign plan and messages, and replies come back through your normal booking process.","question":"How does a DRP shop run this without adding software or disrupting our estimating workflow?"},{"answer":"Yes. We only work from lists of real customers, honor opt-outs immediately, and follow all calling and texting regulations. The booking flow collects explicit consent, and all campaigns run with your approval before anything is sent.","question":"Does the outreach comply with calling and texting regulations?"},{"answer":"Win-back campaigns typically run two to four weeks end-to-end, with replies often coming in as soon as the first wave goes out. After the free list review, we'll quote your one-time setup fee and per-minute outreach rate before anything launches.","question":"How long before we see booked appointments from a no-show recovery campaign?"},{"answer":"No per-seat or software pricing, and no DIY templates to manage. Real humans make the calls with real judgment while automation handles the scale, campaign management is folded into your monthly plan, and texts and emails aren't billed separately — the quote covers the full campaign mix.","question":"How is this different from hiring a receptionist or buying an automated texting tool?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Free List Review","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"Send us your customer list — CRM, spreadsheet, or POS.
