Phones Were Ringing — But Not Always Getting Answered

At Toole’s Garage, demand wasn’t the issue.

But during peak hours:

Advisors were helping customers at the counter

Calls came in while ROs were being written

Phones rang without being picked up

When calls went to voicemail:

  • Many customers didn’t leave messages

  • They called another shop

They had:

Consistent inbound calls

Strong local reputation

Steady flow of new customers

TorQi implemented a fully managed AI voice agent customized to Toole’s workflow.

The system:

Collected customer and vehicle details

Scheduled appointments directly

Handled overflow during busy hours

TorQi handled:

Inbound call answering
