sound familiar?
How does the following relate to your business?..
People don't answer the phone.
Approvals come in over night
Staff are expensive
Contact rates poor
Struggling to keep up with the flow of approvals
They will however respond to sms
Our solution works 24/7 365 & doesn't have time
Customers love the fact you contact them
We regularly exceed 40% contact rate.
We can handle as many as you throw at us.
Sound familiar?
Does the following sound familiar?
People don't answer their phones, when your outbound callers dial them.
Currently only converting between 5-10% of approvals.
Do your finance approvals that come in overnight turn cold before your outbound team can even make contact?
Cost of leads has increased, reducing your overall ROI.
You are fed up of the increasing sunken costs of approvals that don't convert.
Your outbound diallers can't effectively contact all of the approvals you generate.
There isn't much rocket science, we just get you talking to more of your interested approvals ...GUARANTEED
its a numbers game
3 - 2 - 1
Our data across our clients paints a fairly predictable picture, it does vary on how old the approvals are, but generally we find the following:
3 Agree
For every 3 people that we get to agree to an instant call or a call back our clients....
Speak to 2
They will end up speaking and carrying on a conversation with 2 of them
Convert 1
Of the 2 they speak with that are genuinely interested they convert at 50%.
The more you speak with, the more you convert.
What can i expect
Proven results: see what we achieve for our clients
40% Reply Rate
People are more likely to reply to an sms than answer the phone
In today's digital age, customers are increasingly likely to respond to SMS messages rather than answering phone calls or emails.
Our approach leverages this trend, delivering an impressive average reply rate of 40%.
This method is not only highly effective but also cost-efficient, optimizing your outreach efforts and maximising return on investment.

5 Day Old Approvals
Overcoming Sales Delays to Maximize Conversion
While many of our clients aim to contact new approvals immediately, operational realities often delay this crucial first contact to up to five days later. Unfortunately, this delay can turn a significant volume of potential sales into lost, sunken costs.
Our solution, the FinanceEngager, tackles this problem head-on. By continuing to reach out to approvals even after this critical five-day window, it not only revives leads that would otherwise go cold but also frees up your sales team to focus on newly generated approvals. This strategic approach ensures that no opportunity is missed, with leads contacted five days post-approval typically seeing a 10% call ratio.
The impact is clear: As shown in the accompanying pipeline, 70 leads contacted five days after approval generated substantial engagement, demonstrating the effectiveness of persistent follow-up.
3 Week Old Approvals
Last chance to make something out of nothing!.
Three weeks after an approval is issued, chances typically diminish that it will convert. Fresh leads undoubtedly have a higher potential for conversion, reinforcing the importance of timely engagement.
However, don't overlook three-week-old approvals! While they may not engage as robustly as newer leads, our data tells a promising story. Even with a modest engagement rate, these older approvals still hold significant value. For every 100 three-week-old approvals, we typically book 5 calls, resulting in 1-2 successful conversions, demonstrating a robust return on investment.
Real results: The image alongside illustrates the kind of replies we can generate from these older approvals, showcasing our ability to extract value where most might see none.

6 Week Old Approvals
Believe it or not we also have success in converting 6 week old approvals!
One of our clients, specializing in subprime credit, faced significant challenges in managing and converting the high volume of approvals they generated. To address this, we introduced our AI-driven FinanceEngager to optimise the engagement process. The results were so impressive that they soon requested an additional system to revive even their oldest leads—those six weeks old or more.
The return on investment has been extraordinary. With a cost per conversion of just £45, our solution demonstrates not only effectiveness but also exceptional efficiency. This approach seems uniquely successful with subprime credit approvals, where even leads far beyond the typical conversion window can still yield significant returns.
See the impact: The image opposite showcases the types of replies our client receives, illustrating the potent capabilities of our technology even with the most challenging leads.
With these metrics it makes it almost impossible not to convert more finance approvals!

My journey has equipped me to help numerous motor traders not only enhance their lead generation but also secure hundreds of 5-star reviews, all while significantly cutting down their advertising costs.
Having invested and, admittedly, wasted hundreds of thousands of pounds in search of the most effective strategies, I've become deeply passionate about helping others in the trade make the most of the leads they already possess. At AutoEngage, we're all about getting more out of the leads you already have!

Some of the problems we have solved
Sub Prime Finance Specialist
Problem: Swamped With Finance Approvals
Our client had a problem in that they were spending a lot of money on generating leads that then turn into finance approvals.

Is WhatsApp A Good Alternative To Web Chat?
Introduction:
As a motor trader you are more than likely to have a website and chances are you already have some form of web chat. Today we are going to have a look at whether whatsapp business is a good alternative to the more traditional forms of web chat available.
What is WhatsApp?
WhatsApp, launched in 2009, has revolutionised the way people communicate globally. As one of the most popular messaging apps in the world, it boasts over 2 billion users worldwide and 30.1 million in the UK who rely on it for a seamless and convenient way to stay connected with friends, family, and colleagues. The app is available on various devices, including Android, iOS, and desktop computers, making it easily accessible for a wide range of users.
The success of WhatsApp can be attributed to several factors, including its simplicity, versatility, and commitment to user privacy. The app is user-friendly, with an intuitive interface that makes it easy for people of all ages and backgrounds to adopt. It offers a variety of communication options, such as one-on-one and group chats, voice and video calls, and file-sharing capabilities, all within a single platform. This versatility has made it a popular choice for both personal and professional use.
Sounds pretty good with that said, thats have a look at the positives !
1. Secure
End-to-end encryption: WhatsApp provides end-to-end encryption for messages, ensuring that only the sender and the recipient can read the content. This enhances privacy and security compared to some web chat platforms that do not provide this feature.
2. Cost
WhatsApp is free to download and use, which makes it an attractive alternative to some paid web chat services.
3. Availability
WhatsApp is available on various platforms, including Android, iOS, and as a desktop application, making it accessible to a wide range of users.
4. Popularity
WhatsApp is one of the most popular messaging apps in the world, with over 2 billion users. There are 30.1 million users in the UK or roughly 43% of the population meaning that many of your friends, family, and colleagues may already be using it.
5. Multiple Communication Options
WhatsApp provides a wide range of communication options, such as one-on-one and group chats, voice and video calls, and file-sharing capabilities. This versatility allows users to choose the most suitable communication method for their needs and makes the platform a comprehensive solution for both personal and professional communication.
So all in all it looks pretty good and on the base of the fact it's popular, cheap, easy to use, secure it would seem to be a pretty good alternative to web chat...
This however is where it is easy to confuse theory and reality..
Now have a look at the downsides!
1. Requires a phone number
To use WhatsApp, users must have a valid phone number for registration. This requirement may be a barrier for those who prefer anonymity or don't want to share their phone numbers, as it makes it difficult to use the platform without providing personal information.
2. Privacy Concerns
WhatsApp is owned by Facebook, a company with a history of privacy controversies. Although WhatsApp has end-to-end encryption and operates independently with its own privacy policies, some users may still be concerned about how their personal data is handled and shared within the larger Facebook ecosystem.
3. Difficult For Web Users
WhatsApp is great if you have accessed a website from your phone and have the app installed. However it can be a different story if you have accessed it from a desktop or tablet. You must still have the app installed on these devices and although not too difficult, it does take time to download and install (as we will show in the video below) which doesn't provide for the best user experience.
4. Limited Personalisation/Customisation
WhatsApp offers fewer customisation options compared to some other messaging platforms. Users may find the lack of personalisation and control over the chat experience to be a drawback, especially if they prefer a more tailored messaging experience.
5. What About The Ones That Don't Use It?
As mentioned above WhatsApp has a huge following in the UK (30.1 million users). The problem is, that doesn't mean all of your customers are using it.
The UK population is around 68 million. Now the adult population (your customers) make up around 65% of that figure, so around 44 million. Now let's assume that all 30.1 million WhatsApp users are in that group (they aren't). What happens to the other 14 million or roughly 33% of customers that are not using WhatsApp?
For every 100 people that come to your website, 33 do not have the instant ability to converse with you on whatsapp...
With 98% of the adult population having a mobile phone utilising traditional sms based web chat you then reduce that down to 2%.
Check The Video Below Of What A Customer Has To Go Through To Use WhatsApp If They Are On A Desktop.
In Summary:
WhatsApp is a great product and a very useful tool. However it isn't without limitations and isn't necessarily ideal as a sole means of web chat on a website.
It is a great FREE addition to web chat, giving people the choice if they wish to use it, however as can be seen from the figures above you could be missing out on contact from a prospective customer if that is the only option you offer.
With AutoEngage Inbox that utilises traditional sms and starting at £37 per month, it's not only cheap, but 98% of your prospective customers will still be able to use it!

Just thought I would share our first hand positive experience.
I took 5 applications for finance which I am currently working on. One of which came in yesterday, completed the deal to px her merc and drove off in a new SUV.
So in short we have already had 1 decent Blue deal with decent comms just from the free trial alone. Plus another 4 apps I am currently working.
