MOT and vehicle records

MOT reminders for garages: keeping work coming back

MOT work is predictable, so it is the easiest work to plan for. Keep MOT status and due dates against the vehicle record, then contact customers in good time with an accurate date.

Start with accurate vehicle records

Reminders sent against out-of-date records annoy customers. Vehicle details and MOT status should come from the record you created at the job, not a separate spreadsheet.

Mozomay shows MOT status and due dates against the vehicle where they are available.

Timing and tone

Three to four weeks out is usually enough notice for the customer to book a convenient slot and for you to fill the diary.

Keep the message short: the vehicle, the due date, and how to book.

Consent and data

UK marketing rules apply to reminder messages. Record how you obtained consent and make opting out simple.
