- A walk-in time within an hour range, that can be serviced immediately, is a specific appointment time. However, a specific walk-in time with no specific service time cannot be considered a specific appointment, because the vehicle cannot be serviced immediately upon arrival. In the following example, the caller gives a specific arrival time, but the service time cannot be set for a specific time. Thus, it is a soft appointment time.
- Example call - Caller: "I need to get my car serviced as soon as possible." // Agent: "We're all booked through the whole week." // Caller: "Can I just come in and have my car serviced between other appointments?" // Agent: "You can come in and possibly have your car serviced if they have time, but we cannot guarantee a service time and you may be here for a few hours." // Caller: "I'll just get there when you open tomorrow at 8:00, and I'll wait."
The receptionist or agent tells the caller that no appointment is necessary, they can just show up.
- Example call - Caller: "Can I get my tire rotated today?" // Receptionist or agent: "Absolutely. You don't need an appointment. Just come on in."//The caller acknowledges this and the call ends.
- Example call - Caller: "My check engine light is on and I'd like to come in to have it checked out." // Agent: "No problem. Can you come in today? We have openings after 12pm" // Caller: "Yeah, I'll be there between 12:30 and 2:30." // Call ends.
- Example call - Caller: "Can I get my car in for service tomorrow?" // Agent: "What time do you need it done?" // Caller: "Anytime is fine. I'll just drop it off at 7:00 and leave it there for the day." // Agent: "Great, we'll get it done before the end of the day."
