When the bays are empty, something isn’t working
Car count is down - When you look at your month-over-month reports, you see that there’s a definite dip in overall car count and services provided.
Competition - When you were the only auto shop in town, your customers had no choice. Now that another shop has opened up, you need to remind customers that they can trust you with their cars.
Bad data - You want to reach your customers, but emails are bouncing and text is expensive. When you look under the hood, you see that customer information is incorrect.
It’s time to call Throttle.

What’s included in the Throttle Program?
From Our Clients
“Throttle absolutely works. It helps our customer retention and drives car count. It also boosts our reputation with more reviews.”
“I’ve been using Throttle in all of my shops for over 12 years. Throttle is the key to retaining our customers and keeping them coming back to us. If you're not regularly sending your customers emails, texts and postcards with coupons, it almost opens the door to your competition to try to get them."
“We have been a Throttle customer for over nine years and have achieved amazing success by sending our customers oil change reminders through various channels. Throttle has significantly contributed to our annual growth and has truly been a game changer.”
