USE CASE · AUTOMOTIVE

Auto and dealerships

Convert vehicle inquiries into qualified showroom visits.

OnDuty answers financing, inventory, and test drive questions in real time so sales teams can focus on closing, not repetitive back and forth.

Pain points we solve

  • Leads ask the same questions about financing, availability, and trade-ins at all hours.
  • Sales reps lose momentum when follow-up depends on manual messaging.
  • Showroom teams receive unqualified inquiries with missing context.

Outcomes you can expect

  • Prospects receive instant, consistent answers about vehicles and financing options.
  • Only qualified leads reach the sales floor with context attached.
  • Abandoned inquiries are recovered with automated follow-ups.

Great, I can go tomorrow afternoon.
