Autopilot GMS partners with Garage Services Online to help independent garages strengthen their digital presence

The partnership supports both new and existing Autopilot GMS customers looking to strengthen their digital profile, attract more customers and make the most of online opportunities – another step in Autopilot GMS’s focus on giving independent garages the technology, services and expertise they need to operate efficiently and compete in an increasingly digital marketplace.

Garage Services Online has a strong reputation within the UK motor trade for helping independent garages build effective online strategies, spanning website development, digital marketing and online visibility, focused on turning digital presence into a genuine business asset.

Autopilot GMS

Autopilot GMS is an all-in-one garage management platform helping independent garages run day-to-day operations from a single system – bringing together job management, bookings, customer management, quotes, invoices, parts and inventory, vehicle health checks and workforce management, alongside integrations with a range of automotive and business services. It reduces administration so garage owners can spend more time running their workshops, with customer-journey features including online booking, customer records, MOT and service reminders, digital vehicle health checks and automated communications.

Autopilot GMS has also introduced an AI Garage Assistant – an AI-powered tool that answers questions about jobs, invoices and customers, alongside automotive and MOT-related information.

Digital Presence a Must

While garage management software helps workshops operate efficiently, attracting customers remains crucial – and for many motorists that journey now starts online, with a garage’s website, Google presence, online booking process and overall digital profile all influencing whether they make contact.

Garage Services Online complements the Autopilot GMS offering by combining garage management software with specialist digital marketing support, helping independent garages manage existing customers more effectively and reach new ones. Jim and the Garage Services Online team bring extensive motor trade experience and understand the challenges independent garages face building an online presence.

Working Together for Excellence

The partnership reflects Autopilot GMS’s wider approach of working with organisations that provide genuine additional value – bringing technology and marketing closer together so workshops can improve internal processes while developing online visibility and customer acquisition. With Autopilot GMS continuing to develop its platform and Garage Services Online providing specialist digital expertise, the partnership gives independent garages another resource to grow in an increasingly competitive market.

Autopilot GMS thanks Jim and the entire Garage Services Online team for joining as a partner and looks forward to welcoming both new and existing customers. This is another exciting development as Autopilot GMS continues building partnerships that genuinely benefit independent garages across the UK – with both businesses benefitting from preferred partner status with Servicesure and now working together, there is plenty more to come.

Alex Vere (Garage Services Online) will be joining Autopilot on their stand in the VIP area at Techfest, Wembley, on 17th September – come along and have a chat about the benefits this new partnership offers.
