We are back with another round of user guides and explainers for our recently added features. They are part of the ARI(Auto Repair Software) V.11 update and you can access them after installing the app’s latest version.
To begin things – we introduced Web SMS Editing and a new Discount Coupons Template to make engaging and retaining clients much easier for you. Let’s show you how to use the features and create value for your business. (*Please check the visual guides below)
SMS Editing in the Web App
ARI’s Web SMS Editing now allows you to send personalized messages or add crucial details about your Invoice, Inspection, or Appointment with clients. They can be used for Marketing Activities, Customer Support, Client Outreach, and much more.
To edit an SMS – open an existing Invoice, and select Share -> Send via SMS. You will see the default SMS template, which you can edit and send to clients depending on the situation. After finishing the edits – select Send to complete the operation.
SMS editing Options will appear in the following menus.
– Invoices
– Inspections
– Online Appointments
– Service Reminders
The process is the same – each section only has a different SMS template.
Discount Coupons Rework
ARI Discount Coupons were updated with a professional look and an option to attach them directly to Job Cards/ Invoices! You can create one from the Profile Menu and see how it looks. Finish the coupon creation by adding coupon codes and a monetary value/ percentage depending on your needs.
To attach a Coupon to an Invoice – open an active Job Card/ Invoice and select “More.“. Then click “Attach Discount Coupon“ and choose one of your active promotions. A special discount will be applied after you save the progress on your Invoice/ Job Card.
Stay tuned for more overall improvements and changes in ARI. We will provide user guides for most of the crucial features in this update.
