    60% of drivers forget their MOT date

    When customers forget, they go to whoever's closest when they remember. That might not be you.

    Lost to competitors

    Customers who forget go to whoever's convenient when they finally remember. You lose the relationship you built.

    Empty appointment slots

    Gaps in your schedule mean lost revenue. No-shows and forgotten bookings cost you money every day.

    Manual chasing wastes time

    Phone calls take time customers don't answer. Spreadsheets get outdated. Email gets ignored.
