How Real Time Feedback Supports the Customer From Arrival to Follow-Up
Real Time Feedback gives automotive businesses the ability to communicate with customers while they are on-site, capture issues while they can still be addressed, collect authentic customer testimonials, and turn post-service feedback into private recovery or public reviews.
Place smart QR code placards around your dealership to let customers (and employees) send you feedback while in your dealership.
A vehicle is one of the biggest purchases your customers will make. Capture their excitement at delivery with a Live Customer Testimonial Video.
Ask customers to rate their sales or service experience immediately after their visit via a unique text link. Happy customers are guided to leave a public review, while unhappy customers provide private feedback directly to the appropriate manager.
When a customer with a previous negative service experience returns, management is alerted at check-in giving your team the opportunity to recognize the issue, make it right, and win them back.

Told me an hour for an oil change and I was here almost 3 hours. Not to mention that the car was returned with hand prints all over the hood.
Approach customer and acknowledge the previous issue and let them know that you will personally make sure that everything will go smoothly this time.
Your dealership does not have to wait for a public review to learn about failed customer experiences.
Real Time Feedback creates customer touchpoints throughout the automotive service journey, giving management a chance to capture issues in the moment, collect testimonial content from happy customers, route satisfied customers toward public reviews, and recognize returning customers who deserve a better second experience.

Boost Positive Reviews Across the Sites That Matter Most
Right after a customer leaves your dealership, Real Time Feedback sends a simple text asking about their experience while it is still fresh. There is no app to download, no complicated process, and no long survey standing in the way. Customers can respond quickly and naturally, which helps your dealership capture more honest feedback in the moment instead of hoping they remember to leave a review later.
When the experience was positive, happy customers are guided to the review platforms that matter most for dealership visibility and reputation, including Google, DealerRater, Yelp, Facebook, Cars.com, Edmunds, and the BBB. That means more opportunities to turn great in-store experiences into public proof that builds trust with future buyers and service customers. More high-quality reviews also strengthen your dealership’s online presence, improve credibility, and help you stand out in a crowded local market.
If a customer had a poor experience, that feedback is routed internally instead of being pushed straight to a public review site. This gives your management team the chance to step in quickly, address the issue, and recover the relationship before frustration becomes a damaging online review. Instead of reacting after the fact, your dealership gets the opportunity to resolve problems proactively and protect both loyalty and reputation.
