{"faqs":[{"answer":"We work directly from your existing CRM, spreadsheet, or point-of-sale list—no software to buy or learn. Our team manages the outreach using your approved scripts, and replies go straight into your current booking process.","question":"How does CallMyCustomers handle old quote follow-up for auto body shops without requiring us to learn new software?"},{"answer":"We help you choose a fresh angle to reconnect—like a seasonal reminder or a courtesy check-in—and you approve every message first. This ensures the outreach feels useful and permission-based, not salesy or aggressive.","question":"What makes your Old Quote & Estimate Follow-Up campaign feel helpful rather than pushy to customers who haven’t responded in months?"},{"answer":"We only use lists of real customers, honor opt-outs immediately, and follow all calling and texting regulations including TCPA and A2P 10DLC. For your protection, every campaign is permission-based and compliance-checked.","question":"How do you ensure compliance with TCPA and messaging regulations when contacting past customers for estimate follow-up?"},{"answer":"Win-back campaigns typically run two to four weeks end-to-end, with replies often coming as soon as the first wave goes out. You’ll see responses and bookings begin quickly after launch.","question":"What’s the typical timeline to see results from an Old Quote & Estimate Follow-up campaign with CallMyCustomers?"},{"answer":"Pricing includes a one-time setup fee based on list size (quoted at free list review) and outreach minutes at 9¢–21¢ per minute, stepping down with volume. Texts and emails are not billed separately—the quote covers the full campaign mix with no surprise line items.","question":"How is pricing structured for an Old Quote & Estimate Follow-Up campaign, and are there hidden fees for texts or emails?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Review & Segment Your List","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"We analyze your customer list by recency and flag old quotes that never became jobs—no software needed, works with your CRM, spreadsheet, or POS export."},{"step":"2","title":"Approve Message & Offer","gradient":"from-yellow-500 to-orange-500","description":"You review and sign off on every script, offer, and message—we plan the campaign together, you approve, we run it."},{"step":"3","title":"Run Outreach & Book Appointments","gradient":"from-green-500 to-emerald-500","description":"Our team executes calls, texts, and emails in your name; replies route into your booking process with confirmations and follow-up."}],"ctaText":"Get Your Free List Review & See What Your Old Quotes Can Produce","eyebrow":"Old Quote Follow-Up","benefits":[{"icon":"Target","title":"Higher Close Rates on Dormant Estimates","gradient":"from-emerald-500 to-teal-500","description":"Your old estimates—supplement-pending jobs, teardown quotes that never scheduled, insurance repairs the customer put off—are a warm list you already paid to build. We call and text them on your behalf with a fresh angle, you approve every script and offer first, and replies route straight into your booking process. Reactivating a known customer costs roughly 5x less than acquiring a new one, and one call is often all it takes.","proof_point":"Reactivating a customer is ~5x cheaper than acquiring a new one — and one call is often all it takes to win someone back."},{"icon":"TrendingUp","title":"Consistent Flow of Scheduled Repairs","gradient":"from-blue-500 to-purple-500","description":"Instead of riding the rollercoaster of DRP volume and walk-ins, we systematically work your dormant estimate list every month—segmented by recency (30 days, 6 months, 12+ months)—so your bays stay full and your cycle time planning stays predictable.

Every auto body shop has a stack of written estimates—supplement-heavy repairs, blend panel jobs, $2,000-and-under dings—that were never followed up on. With repairable claims down 10.4% through August 2025, those cold estimates are the work sitting in your own files, not new business walking in the door."},{"icon":"Clock","stat":"10.4%","color":"from-orange-500 to-yellow-500","title":"Shrinking Repairable Claims Market Means You Can't Rely on New Volume","description":"Repairable claims fell 10.4% through August 2025 versus the prior year, and total loss frequency hit 22.8% through October 2025—on pace for a second consecutive record. More cars are being totaled, fewer are being repaired, and DRP volume from MSOs is consolidating. In a market like this, reactivating the estimates and customers already in your CRM is the most reliable source of repair orders you have."},{"icon":"DollarSign","stat":"","color":"from-yellow-500 to-green-500","title":"Higher Deductibles and Indemnity Gaps Make Closing Estimates Harder","description":"Twenty-six percent of auto insurance customers now carry deductibles of $1,000 or more, and appraisals for damages of $2,000 or less have fallen from 41.5% in 2019 to just 25.5% through mid-2025. That means customers are absorbing more of the Total Cost of Repair out of pocket—and many walk away from a written estimate quietly, without ever saying no. A patient, permission-based follow-up with a fresh angle is often all it takes to bring them back."}],"quickWins":["Pair your old-estimate follow-up with seasonal reminders timed to hail season, winter salt damage, and pre-holiday travel—so outreach feels useful, not pushy.","Add post-repair review and referral requests after each completed job, so every finished repair feeds your next round of booked work."],"subheadline":"We revive your expired quotes with approved scripts and human-led outreach, turning forgotten estimates into scheduled jobs—no software to learn, no guesswork.","problemTitle":"The Silent Revenue Leak in Auto Body Shops","testimonials":[{"quote":"Between supplementals and ADAS documentation, my CSRs never had time to chase old estimates.
