What your leads actually say
Three messages auto detailers get every week
Verbatim in spirit. Each one arrived while the person who should answer it was on a job, and each one was also sent to 2 or 3 competitors.
“Selling my truck this weekend and it needs a full interior and exterior detail. F-150, dog hair situation. Can you come to my house Friday?”
“Looking at ceramic coating for a new Tesla Model Y. What does it cost, how long does it last, and do you need the car for a full day?”
“We have 6 work vans that need monthly washes and a quarterly interior. Do you do fleet accounts?”
How LeadBolt answers
Composed for the lead in front of it, in about 45 seconds
The reply on the right is the kind of message Live Wire, the auto-responder, sends to auto detailers. It is built from what the customer wrote, the service LeadBolt classified, the time of day and whether you are open, the city, and the facts you set: your prices, your policies, your license. Nothing is pasted from a script bank, and no two leads get the same message.
Strike First, the speed-to-lead engine, sends it in about 45 seconds, during hours and after. Lightning Rod, the spam detection, has already parked the lead resellers and the marketing pitches, so the crew only ever sees customers. If the customer goes quiet, Boomerang, the ghost-lead follow-up, nudges them until they answer or say stop, and the whole thread lives in Switchboard, the unified inbox, where a person can take over with one tap.
Hi Alex, this is ACME Detailing. A full interior and exterior on an F-150 with pet hair is our $249 package, about 3 hours, and we come to you with water and power. Friday in Scottsdale we have 8 AM or 1 PM. Reply 1 or 2 to hold it. A clean truck photographs better and usually sells faster.

Illustrative reply. The appointment windows come from Dispatch, the scheduling add-on.
The services you can auto-book
5 of 9 book from the first reply
Interior, exterior, full details, pet hair, and headlights book from the first reply at menu prices by vehicle size. Paint correction, ceramic, fleet, and RV work depend on condition and count, so the reply books an inspection or a fleet call.
With Dispatch, the scheduling add-on, the first reply offers 2 or 3 real windows and the customer books by texting a number. Services that need a quote get the estimate visit booked the same way, which is still a booking on your calendar. Which services are bookable is set per service inside LeadBolt, so the list below is a starting point, not a rule.

Where these leads come from
The sources that matter most for auto detailers
Every one of them gets the same treatment: instant reply, spam screening, one inbox, and revenue attribution. Each is connected with you on a call, included with every plan.
Yelp
Where the before-and-after photos convince the customer and the response badge closes it.
Meta
Instagram and Facebook lead ads that convert fast with an instant reply and go cold without one.
Google Ads
Ceramic coating and mobile detailing searches, attributed by campaign.
Website forms
The booking form with the vehicle and package already picked.
SMS
Repeat customers text the number on the van, and those threads land in the same inbox.
Seasonality and timing
When auto detailers get buried, and why the clock matters more then
Detailing spikes in spring, when pollen and winter salt come off, before summer road trips, and in the fall when leases end and cars get sold. Ceramic coating follows new-car deliveries and tax refund season. Most of these leads come by message with a date in mind, and the detailer who confirms a slot first gets it, because the customer has 2 other detailers open in other tabs.
Throttle, the Yelp ad tuning, pushes budget toward the package keywords that book and away from the ones that bring product questions and detailing-supply shoppers. After-hours replies are where mobile detailing gets booked: people plan the weekend on Thursday night. The after-hours voice quotes from your menu, confirms the mobile service area, and holds the Friday slot, so Thursday's 9 PM message is Friday's 8 AM job.
Plans start at $149/mo and every plan answers every lead in under a minute. Throttle is included in Pro. See pricing for the full grid.
