How do I follow up on declined repairs without being pushy?

Customers say not today, and then you never hear from them again. Here's how Nolavi works through it, the same way a good mechanic works on a car: find the concern, the cause, the correction, then verify the fix.

1

The concern

Nate had $83,000 of declined work on file from the past year, and no follow up.

The cause

Nobody owned the follow up, and there was no reminder system.

The correction

Nolavi sends a friendly reminder text at 30 and 90 days, with the original photos, only for safety and wear items.

The verification

In three months, $14,600 of declined work came back and was approved.

Questions

Quick answers.

When should I follow up on declined work?

About 30 days later, then again around 90 days, with the original photos.

Won't follow ups annoy customers?

Not if they're short, friendly and about safety. Most customers appreciate the reminder.
