What is Service Advising?

Service advising, also known as automotive service advising or service writing, is an important aspect of the automotive service industry. It refers to the process of assisting customers with their vehicle maintenance and repair needs.

Service advisors act as the primary point of contact between customers and the service department, facilitating communication and ensuring a smooth service experience. Service advising involves various tasks, including:

Customer Interaction: Service advisors greet customers, listen to their concerns, and gather information about their vehicle’s issues or maintenance requirements.

Assessment and Recommendation: Based on the customer’s concerns and the vehicle’s condition, service advisors assess the necessary services or repairs. They provide recommendations to customers, explaining the work needed, its benefits, and any potential consequences of delaying or forgoing repairs.

Estimation: Service advisors provide customers with estimates for the cost of repairs or maintenance services. This includes breaking down the costs of parts and labour, ensuring transparency and helping customers make informed decisions.

Appointment Scheduling: Service advisors coordinate service appointments, considering technician availability and the urgency of the customer’s needs.

Communication with Technicians: Once the vehicle is in the service bay, service advisors communicate the customer’s concerns and service requests to the technicians or mechanics. They provide detailed information to ensure technicians understand the nature of the work required.

Progress Updates: Throughout the service process, service advisors keep customers informed about the status of their vehicles. They provide updates on the progress of the work, notify customers of any unforeseen issues or delays, and address any questions or concerns the customer may have.

Quality Assurance: Before returning the vehicle to the customer, service advisors may perform a final quality check to ensure all requested services have been completed satisfactorily. This may include test-driving the vehicle to verify its proper functioning.

Customer Satisfaction: Service advisors strive to provide excellent customer service throughout the entire service experience. They address any issues or concerns promptly and effectively, ensuring that customers leave satisfied with the service they receive.

Service advising is about guiding customers through the process of maintaining and repairing their vehicles. It ensures their needs are met while upholding high professional standards and customer satisfaction.

We recently completed the Level 1 Service Advisor Training with Alan, and I couldn’t be more impressed. The training was practical, relevant, and full of real-world strategies that we could implement immediately. Alan has a deep understanding of the challenges service advisors face and delivers the content in a clear, engaging way. He didn’t just talk theory—he broke down the sales process, customer communication, objection handling, and quoting strategies in a way that made sense for our shop. His focus on building trust with customers and maximizing every opportunity at the front counter has already started making a difference in how our advisors approach their roles. What really stood out was how invested he was in our success. Alan took the time to answer questions, adapt the training to our team’s experience level, and gave us actionable takeaways we’ve started using right away. Highly recommend this course for anyone looking to strengthen their front-end team and increase shop performance from the first point of contact.
