How does Answrr route calls to the right salesperson or technician?

You configure transfer rules by topic—e.g., ‘outboard motor service’ goes to the service team, ‘financing’ goes to the finance manager. The AI routes calls intelligently based on conversation context.

Does Answrr integrate with my existing CRM or scheduling system?

Yes. Answrr supports triple calendar integration with Cal.com, Calendly, and GoHighLevel. It also connects to any system via MCP protocol, so it works with your current CRM, inventory, or booking tools.

Can I customize the AI’s voice and tone for my boat dealership brand?

Yes. You can select from multiple natural-sounding Rime Arcana voices and adjust speed and tone to match your brand’s personality—whether professional, friendly, or expert-focused.

What happens if a caller wants to speak to a human immediately?

The AI detects when a caller wants to speak to a person and transfers the call with full context—your team knows exactly what was discussed, so no information is lost.

The Cost of Missing Boat Buyer Calls

40%

Missed Calls During Peak Season: 40% of Inbound Calls Unanswered Amid Spring Launch Rush

During the critical spring and summer boating season, boat & marine dealerships face a surge in inquiries—especially for dockside delivery scheduling, outboard motor service interval planning, and boat trailer compatibility checks. With staffing stretched thin, 40% of inbound calls go unanswered, resulting in lost opportunities for high-intent buyers researching hull identification number (HIN) verification, marine warranty transfer, or boat financing pre-approval. This leads to missed sales during the busiest months, when 68% of annual boat purchases are made.

85%

After-Hours Abandonment: 85% of Customers Hang Up Without Leaving a Voicemail After Hours

When customers call after 6 PM or on weekends—common times for weekend planners and remote buyers—85% abandon the call without leaving a voicemail. These are often inquiries about marine survey scheduling, tow vehicle compatibility assessments, or boat registration renewal deadlines. Without an after-hours system, dealerships lose high-value leads during the 12–18 months of research boat buyers typically invest before purchase.

32%

Inefficient Call Routing: 32% of Calls Misdirected to Wrong Team for HIN, Warranty, or Engine Type Queries

Calls about inboard vs. outboard engine configurations, marine warranty transfer eligibility, or hull identification number (HIN) validation are frequently routed to sales reps without technical knowledge. This results in 32% of inquiries being transferred or abandoned. For example, a customer calling about outboard motor service interval scheduling may be sent to a finance team, delaying response and damaging trust.

Why Boat & Marine Dealerships Choose Answrr

Capture Every Lead, Every Time

Answrr captures every lead—even at 10:30 PM on a Friday—by answering calls with a tailored script that asks for the caller’s boat model, HIN, and interest in dockside delivery or financing pre-approval. The AI instantly routes the inquiry to the correct department and books a test drive or marine survey within 90 seconds, reducing lead response time from 48 hours to under 5 minutes.

According to a 2024 Boating Industry study, 85% of boat buyers consider response time a top factor—dealerships with same-day replies see 37% higher conversion rates.

Book Appointments While You Sleep

Answrr automatically schedules appointments for outboard motor service intervals, marine survey prep, and boat registration renewal reminders—critical touchpoints that often fall through the cracks. For example, a customer calling about tow vehicle compatibility is prompted to book a compatibility check within 3 minutes, reducing manual follow-up by 80% and increasing appointment adherence by 62%.

A 2025 Bass Pro Shops industry study found that dealerships with automated appointment booking systems saw a 41% increase in service department utilization.

Never Miss a High-Value Inquiry

Answrr’s AI remembers past buyers’ service history, including hull identification number (HIN), engine type (inboard vs. outboard), and previous boat trailer compatibility. When a returning customer calls about a marine warranty transfer, the system instantly pulls their file and offers a seamless transfer process—eliminating repetitive questions and reducing average call handling time by 45%.

Research from the National Marine Manufacturers Association shows that repeat customers spend 2.3x more over their lifetime—preserving their history increases retention by 58%.

Real Results from Real Businesses

“Last summer, we lost over 40% of calls during the Memorial Day weekend—many about outboard motor service intervals and dockside delivery windows. After switching to Answrr, every call was answered, even at 11 PM. One customer called about boat trailer compatibility with their new SUV and was booked for a site visit the next morning. Our lead conversion rose 31% in just three months—enough to cover the cost of the service in under two months.”

Marcus Johnson

Sales Manager, Coastal Waters Marine & Outboard Center, Boat & Marine Dealerships

“We used to have customers call back multiple times because our front desk didn’t know their boat’s HIN or previous service history. Now, Answrr pulls up their file instantly—whether they’re asking about marine warranty transfer or inboard engine diagnostics. One repeat buyer was able to transfer their warranty in under 5 minutes. It’s like having a 24/7 assistant who knows every boat in our inventory.”

Jennifer Garcia

Owner, Gulf Coast Boat & Trailer Specialists, Boat & Marine Dealerships

“We were missing boat registration renewal reminders and marine survey bookings because our team was overwhelmed. Answrr now sends automated alerts and schedules appointments for customers who’ve just purchased a boat. One customer called at 8 PM on a Sunday about HIN verification for a new inboard model—Answrr booked a survey and sent the paperwork to our team before 9 AM the next day. We closed the sale the same week.”
