Introducing Professional Client E-mail Templates to ARI

 

As part of our most recent update, we are providing ARI(Auto Repair Software) users with the capacity to represent their businesses in the best light possible. The app now supports a collection of templates used to send e-mails for Invoices, Estimates, Vehicle Inspections, or Service Reminders directly to your clients. In previous versions – those used to be plain text e-mails with limited customization options.

These client e-mails also contain a link to your customized Online Booking Page, making it easy for them to connect with you and schedule their next appointment for your shop.

The info in those e-mails is pre-filled and comes from your ARI Vehicles, Inventory, and Client libraries. Before you send an e-mail to a client – you can preview how it will look in their inbox and address any issues if necessary.

Now – look at how they will appear to your clients in the app.
