A shop will say "we need a chatbot" the way they say "we need a new website." Both sentences skip the only useful one:
What hour does the work die?
If you cannot name it, do not buy a bot. Buy the \$12 prompt pack and write the hour down.
The hour is the product
The dealership desk is \$749/mo. It answers three questions after the lights are off:
- Is that VIN still here?
- What's the payment?
- Can I set an appointment?
That is an 8 p.m. to 9 a.m. job. Saturday at 9. A phone-up who will tap three other rooftops before they sleep.
It is not "we added a bot to the site." A bot that does not know the stock is a new way to lose the lead.
The website product is a separate \$749/mo. No published bundle. I will not invent one.
What I will talk you out of
- A night salary to recite hours and inventory the site already has.
- A receptionist that guesses.
- "AI" as the sentence. That is not a bottleneck.
A night BDC hire is a real person. If you have the volume, hire them. Use them to close. Use the desk for the hours nobody is sitting in the tower.
Setup on the chatbot instance is \$499 on the store card. Multi-rooftop is a quote.
The test
Write one line: "It breaks at ___ because ___."
"We miss calls after 7:40 p.m." That is missed-call setup, \$299 — or the \$12 pack plus discipline.
"The BDC is dark from 8 to 9." That is the desk. Dealerships page.
"We need AI." You do not have a line yet. Try again.
Book the consult. Google Calendar. I will send you to the \$12 rung if that is the honest answer.
