Deep year-end discounts teach owners to wait for the next deal, and OEMs score service on a rolling 12 months. The stores that win Q4 reach the right owner at the right moment with a real reason to book.

That’s exactly what ATOM does. It reaches each owner by email, text, mail and social when their car is due, and your lanes fill with work your techs want:

📈 31% more repair orders
🔧 59% lift in service conversion
💰 $282 back for every $1 in ad spend
🏆 Northern Mercedes: $509K and a 64:1 ROI

Your open recalls are service visits waiting to happen. Atom Recalls turns them into booked appointments, and we’ll start you with a free Open Recall Count for your market.

61% of owners now keep their cars five years or longer, and each one is worth $12K+ in service. Let’s get them into your bays before the year closes.

That owner who hasn’t been back since last spring didn’t find a better shop. They just stopped hearing from you.

Atom finds them, gives them a real reason to book, and runs the follow-up so your advisors stay on the drive, not the phone.

Give more owners a reason to choose your service department.

An owner misses a service visit. Another buys from you but never comes back for maintenance. Someone nearby needs a repair and has never considered your dealership.

Those are different service opportunities. GSM builds the outreach around each one.

We use owner and service history to identify who’s due and who has drifted away. We create relevant offers, send the reminders, and give owners who haven’t serviced with you a reason to choose your service department.

For a Virginia Audi dealer, conquest outreach brought in first-time service customers. For a Tennessee Honda dealer, targeted messages brought inactive customers back. For an Ohio Toyota dealer, offers aimed at higher-mileage vehicles produced a higher average repair-order value than its inactive-customer campaign.

Now is the time to reach those owners with a reason to book service before holiday travel.

“You see who we're reaching, why, and what came back in repair orders. That's it.”

750+ repair orders. $209,550 in revenue. 60 days.

That's what our average atom dealer brings in, and Q4 is the perfect time to put it to work.

85% of dealers named parts and service as the top driver of their business this year, and the average dealer did about $9.23 million in fixed ops last year. The growth is in your service lane, and the owners are already in your database.

We reach every one of them with a message built for their vehicle and how they drive it. Email leads, direct mail backs it up, and we stay in front of them on social and the sites they visit most. You see every matched RO on a live dashboard.

Our ATOM dealers are writing 31% more repair orders.

We reach every owner right when they need you, from the 8-month check-in to the 15-month welcome back, by mail, email, text and streaming video.

Each of those owners can be worth up to $12K in service. We help you keep that relationship for the life of the vehicle.

Recalls are running high this year, with 300+ on the books by midyear. Every open recall is a visit we can help you book.

Dealer service revenue hit a record while share of visits slipped from 33% to 29%, so the next win is every customer you bring back.

Recent Fixed Ops Study:

• 80% of new-car buyers plan to service where they bought, but only about 25% leave with that first appointment booked

• Every customer who drifts to a general repair shop walks out with $12,000+ in lifetime service

That's not a market problem. That's a follow-up problem.

Fixed ops is all we do. Here's what it looks like when it's done right:

🔧 Burnsville Toyota: repair order revenue up 38.87% year over year, a 46:1 ROI, and a 21-spot jump in Toyota's loyalty ranking in 4 months

🔧 One Nissan store: $1.13M in service revenue in 3 months on atom Service Retention

🔧 atom Lifecycle Sales: $47.65 back for every $1 across a 180-day, four-dealer pilot, turning service customers into their next car sale

And it doesn't stop in the service lane. Customers who keep coming back for service are 30x more likely to buy their next car from you.

Your service customers are your next car buyers. Most dealers just never ask them.

atom by GSM uses your own customer data to send the right offer at the right moment: a welcome after the sale, a heads-up before the warranty runs out, a trade-in offer when it's time for a new car. Every piece goes out by email and direct mail automatically, with no extra work for your team.

In a 180-day pilot across four dealerships, each store averaged:

• $68,529 in vehicle sales revenue
• $407 per service visit
• $47.65 back for every $1 spent, every month

A Nissan dealership using atom Service Retention generated $1,131,504 in revenue in three months, with a $349 average repair order.

Want more customers booking service with you instead of the shop down the street? atom by GSM gives each one a reason to come back.

For a Massachusetts Lexus dealer, atom grouped owners by time since their last repair order. Each group got its own direct mail offer, timed to when they were due.

The dealer generated nearly $7 million in service revenue in one year, with a $616 average repair order. The campaigns averaged a 13% response rate.

What if every 10 service appointments on your board became 16, from the owners you already have?

See how we bring owners back → https://www.gsmarketing.com/digital-solutions

Here's why it works. Generic reminders get ignored, but reaching out with a specific reason has a much higher chance of winning that business.

"Your 30K service is due."
"Your vehicle has an open recall."
"Your bay is open Tuesday at 9."

atom sends each owner the reason that applies to them, when it applies. They book with your store before they even think about the independent shop down the street.

Six more ROs for every ten. Every week. From customers who already know your name.

What would a $517 average repair order and a 65% customer pay rate on recall visits mean for your fixed operations this quarter?

Building a smarter service cadence means moving beyond generic reminders and giving your owners a specific, compelling reason to act.

When you shift to VIN-specific, automated outreach through the Atom platform, you naturally turn routine service visits into a highly profitable, repeatable revenue stream.

Your service drive represents the most reliable profit center in your dealership. Let's set up a quick conversation to see how the Atom retention playbook can elevate your Q4 performance.
