Virtual Receptionist for Mechanics
Hiring a full-time receptionist isn't realistic for most workshops. TradePA's virtual receptionist handles the front-office tasks — answering calls, capturing service and diagnostic enquiry details, booking logbook services, and following up — so you get the benefits without the wage.

The Problem
You Can't Afford a Receptionist — But You Can't Afford to Miss Calls Either
A full-time receptionist is a big wage for a workshop. But without someone answering the phone, enquiries about services and diagnostics slip through while you're under a vehicle or at the counter. A virtual receptionist bridges the gap — front-office support without the full-time salary.
