You’re Not Understaffed. You’re Under-automated.

April 11, 2025 Novaco AI No comments yet

In nearly every conversation with dealers, the same comment comes up:

“We just can’t find enough people.”

The shortage of technical staff, service advisors, and planners is real. But rarely do we ask the more important question:

Are we using the people we already have in the right way?

What if you’re not short on staff— but overloaded with manual work?


The real problem is hiding in your processes

Every day, your team answers the same questions:

  • “When will my car be ready?”
  • “Can I still book a service for Monday?”
  • “Did you receive my enquiry?”
  • “What does a service cost for my model?”

They update the CRM, handle emails, call customers, send confirmations, and manage appointment slots. Often in different systems. Often twice. Often manually.

These tasks are important—but they’re also predictable, repetitive, and entirely automatable.


Why your current tools aren’t helping

Most dealers think they’ve already automated:

  • A website form here,
  • A booking tool there,
  • A WhatsApp inbox,
  • Maybe even a chatbot.

But these tools don’t speak to each other. They’re not intelligent. They don’t understand your workflows. They don’t reduce the workload—they simply shift it.

The result?

Customers fill out a form and still call.

Staff stay in firefighting mode.

And your CRM is never quite up to date.


Introducing: your virtual teammate

Imagine having a colleague who:

  • Is available 24/7
  • Knows every vehicle and appointment in your system
  • Books, confirms, reminds, and follows up—automatically
  • Handles WhatsApp and email enquiries without human input
  • Updates the CRM silently, in the background

That colleague is called Nova.

Nova is not a chatbot.

Nova is not a feature.

Nova is a virtual team member.


Nova makes automation human and scalable

Nova integrates with your existing stack—your DMS, CRM, and booking tools.

Nova understands your workflows.

Nova gets smarter every day.

No new training needed.

No 6-month IT rollout.

No culture change programme.

Nova simply works.

Like any great colleague should.


The future of retail isn’t more people – it’s smarter use of people

In an industry where margins are shrinking, servicing needs are dropping, and customers want everything now, the only sustainable strategy is efficiency.

Not by working harder.

But by working smarter.

With less duplication, less noise—and more time to actually serve customers.

You’re not understaffed. You’re under-automated. And Nova fixes that.

So, What Exactly Is a Virtual Workforce?

July 2, 2025 Novaco AI No comments yet

Imagine this: you’re hiring a new employee. You set them up with an account, grant access to product information, inventory, service schedules, and internal procedures.

You Can’t Sell Electric Cars With Petrol-Era Processes

July 1, 2025 Novaco AI No comments yet

Selling EVs isn’t about technology. It’s about trust. Car dealers still sell petrol and hybrid vehicles every day. But the market is shifting. More and more customers are considering going electric—and that’s exactly where traditional sales processes begin to fail. This isn’t a technology problem. It’s a communication gap. EV buyers aren’t radically different — […]
