Automotive

One-click rent templates, sequences, and AI agents tailored for WhatsApp Business for Automotive.

Why WhatsApp fits this business

For Automotive dealerships, moving inventory requires relentless and immediate follow-up.

WaveChat provides the tools you need to schedule test drives, send service updates, and negotiate deals securely over WhatsApp.

Automate MOT reminders, route sales inquiries to the floor, and follow up on finance applications.

The problems you will recognise

Service reminders are ignored

Customers miss their MOT or service date because the letter went in the bin.

Hot leads buy elsewhere

A customer submits a test drive request, but buys from the dealer who texted them first.

Parts updates delay repairs

Mechanics wait for authorization while the customer's voicemail is full.

Finance paperwork stalls

Deals are held up because customers forget to bring the right documents to the showroom.

Workflows worth setting up

01

Instant answers to the standard questions

A template sent the moment an enquiry lands.

02

Handover with context

People wanting detail route to an agent with the conversation already in front of them, so nothing is asked twice.

Shared inbox
03

Follow-up on quiet enquiries

Two days of silence triggers one polite chase, stopping the moment they reply.

Important reminders

Utility messages before due dates. Expected, so they do not damage your quality rating.

Common questions

Can we handle hundreds of enquiries a week?
Yes, and this is the clearest case for automation. The repetitive questions answer themselves and agents handle the ones that need a person.
Is WhatsApp suitable for talking to our customers?
It is usually the channel they most reliably read.
What about different segments?
Segment contacts and message only the relevant group. Broadcasting everything to everybody is what causes opt-outs.
