Online booking brings most of this money back

Clients book themselves while you're under a car, and automatic reminders cut no-shows roughly in half. Garag Premium costs zł 99 per month — one saved job pays for it.

Your losses ≈ 130× the price of Premium

How we calculate

The estimate is conservative — lower bounds of industry statistics:

≈23% of calls to auto repair shops go unanswered during business hours; 85% of those callers never call back, most dial a competitor right away.
We count only half of missed calls as real booking intent, and only half of those as a job that would have happened.
15% of appointments end in a no-show; a no-show blocks a slot for ~1.5 hours, and half of the slots get refilled on the spot.
An average call takes 3 minutes; phone hours are priced at your labor rate, and only if a mechanic answers.
22 working days per month. Automatic reminders cut no-shows by 30–50% according to industry data.
