Common questions · the ones body shops ask first
Straight answers, before you ask.
Cost. Timelines. Ownership. Tools. If your question is not here, book the free consultation and ask a person, not a bot.
Yes. The systems are built around how a body shop actually runs: estimate calls that come in while the crew is in the bay, quotes that need follow-up, reviews that win customer-pay work, and the swing between insurance and retail jobs. Tell us your shop on the consultation and we build to it.
Three levers together: show up on Google and Local Services when people search for collision and auto body repair nearby, answer every estimate call and web request in seconds, and win the reviews that make you the obvious choice. Velora installs them as one system, tracked to cost per booked job (RO).
An auto body shop marketing agency helps you win more repair orders: local SEO and Google Business Profile, Google Ads and PPC, a conversion-first website that books estimates, review and reputation management, and front-desk tools like an AI receptionist and a CRM. Velora builds these as one system and reports on cost per repair order.
Yes. Ads and a strong review profile bring in higher-margin retail and customer-pay work, so you are less dependent on DRP and insurance steering. We build around your existing estimating and management system.
A single piece, like the AI receptionist or the website, usually goes live within days. Bigger builds happen in phases, so estimates start coming in while we build the rest.
No. We build around the estimating and shop-management tools you already use, like CCC, Mitchell, or Tekmetric. If one is a real bottleneck we will say so, but we do not push replacements.
You do. Accounts, the website, customer data, and automations all live in your name. Ongoing support exists if you want it; the system runs fine without us watching it.
It depends on how much you want built. Single systems start around $500, and a full multi-system build can run past $30,000. The Service Investment Guide lists the range for each service.
