The fir- the first thing I did there was, I call it an automation audit.
14:28
So I basically go in and I say, "At any given moment, there's six things that are happening with your customers, right?" Either they have an open estimate that needs to get followed up on, or they canceled a job that you wanna get back on the schedule, um, or they finished a job but they didn't sign up for your membership, or they have a job scheduled and you want to get them to look at financing or membership options before the visit.
14:52
So these are moments where you can automate messages that get the customer to take action.
14:58
So I looked at A1's email marketing setup to find where are the opportunities in this automation audit, and we found five of them.
15:05
It was like, "Okay, there are five o-opportunities here to send messages to your customers at key moments to get them to take action." One was, believe it or not, open estimates.
15:15
It's like, imagine how many open estimates A1 has.
