Description
GarageBooks offers a comprehensive management solution tailored for independent garages in the UK. Users can swiftly create digital job cards, generate quotes that can seamlessly transition into jobs, and automatically produce invoices once the work is finished. The system features a complete customer and vehicle CRM that consolidates every job, invoice, and MOT in a single interface. To enhance customer retention, automatic MOT reminders are integrated, encouraging repeat business. Additionally, the MOT Advisory Checker provides access to DVSA history for each job, highlighting any outstanding advisories directly on the dashboard. For VAT filing, MTD compliance is facilitated through direct connection to HMRC, ensuring that the 9-box return is calculated from invoices and submitted without the need for bridging software (application currently pending). Each account also offers a complimentary public profile in the GarageBooks directory, which creates an SEO-optimized page for garages, allowing local customers to discover their services and send inquiries directly. Designed specifically for independent garages across the UK, GarageBooks is available for £29 per month, and new users can take advantage of a 14-day free trial to explore its features. This platform not only streamlines operations but also enhances visibility and accessibility for local customers.
